    My experience with Armstrong Steel was seamless. I wish working with other people was as easy as the staff at Armstrong made buying a building. We have had hurricanes and other severe storms come through here, and my Armstrong building doesn't have a scratch on it. I wish my other two buildings were from Armstrong. It's tough, it's durable, and you get what you pay for.

    I was able to design a building to suit my needs at a reasonable price. A structurally sound building that garners many compliments. I have ample space and due to the structural steel and purlins I can add interior finishes, supporting equipment and even some display items. I have added a 10,000# vehicle hoist, a wood working section, a roomy office space and a bathroom to clean up after dirty automotive work. The possibilities are limitless with a correctly designed and built steel building.

      The Armstrong Steel building is a very high-quality product. The blueprints and drawing package that Armstrong provides is perfect for permitting, even here in California. The building was erected in just a few days and were are very happy with it. The online building creator gave us many options to decide which building was the best fit for our property. We are very happy with the product supplied. I would recommend this product for those who are searching for a building.

      Excellent experience, everyone at Armstrong from the first salesperson to the driver delivering the building was a joy to work with. I was impressed with the knowledge and confidence of the product. The details of the construction manual were excellent and definitely gave you confidence that construction would go smoothly. Material, material packaging was excellent and greatly enhanced the handling and construction of the building. We are very proud of the structure and get constant reviews and questions from all of our guest. Highly recommend using Armstrong Steel.

      Armstrong has contacted me to resolve this situation.

      Original Review: April 30, 2025

      BEWARE! I never leave reviews but other customers deserve to be cautioned about Armstrong Steel. I have owned a residential construction company for 30 years and am well aware of the ins and outs of industrial businesses. I carefully communicated with AS what my needs were in a steel building. I was 100% clear in size of building, doors, wall height and eaves. My salesperson gave me a quote based on our conversations, pushing and emphasizing the need for me to quickly lock in my great pricing before it became unavailable. I was told decisions on windows, color choices, eave sizes, etc would all happen in the "design phase".

      After initial paperwork was sent to me, AS quickly reached out with an apology for a mistake on snow load calculation for my roof and explained my price needed to go up. I understand mistakes and went along with the price adjustment. However, a couple of days later - after signing my contract - my "design phase" contact gave me updated pricing on my design choices. My cost was going to be almost double my quoted price! I knew windows would add (not counted in my "almost double" price) but I had no idea that choosing a color of roof would add $5,000.

      AS knew what color I wanted before I signed anything and yet they never explained it was extra. And it just continued from there. They tried to say that because I didn't know my windows that the overall design hadn't been finalized, so they hadn't included the things I had clearly defined in the beginning. When I tried to question, and even said it felt like a bait and switch, the manager would take no responsibility for what I had been told and basically said, "Too bad, your deposit is non-refundable and if you can no longer build the building you wanted, so sorry. Doesn't matter what our salesperson said. You just misunderstood and it's on you." HORRIBLE customer treatment and major lack of business integrity.

      I wouldn't waste my times with these people. I was given a quote with no opening to the building. The salesperson was not forthcoming at all. She was all over the place and couldn't answer a straight question. She was evasive or just plain dishonest. Either way is unacceptable. Then I got a letter from Alexander L. **, General Counsel, Armstrong Steel asking me to pay the deposit for the building they misrepresented to me in the first place. Instead of trying to work with me to gain a better understanding of my concerns, they went straight into the bully tactics.

      Armstrong took the deposit, then doubled the cost of the building. I worked with their sales rep for 2 months to dial in a building. All questions answered and price approved. Then sent to finance to put down a deposit. The paperwork sent over was asking to initial on a spec sheet and drawings. All that were wrong so I responded with all the issues on it. They responded not to worry, the project manager will adjust. This is just to get the deposit down. The sales rep then called reassuring that those papers don't matter and that he had all the correct info that we worked on. Just to sign so we can get the deposit in and the project manager will have the correct info. Bit concerning but I need to follow their process.

      Project manager then realizes the errors and that the building spec'd out on the deposit form wouldn't even be a building they could warranty. Errors like a beam cutting through the door opening, or the framing/girts not able to hold the insulation. She then got the building right to our original specs and how it needed to be built for safety and warranty. Problem is that the agreed upon price of $180,449 is now going to cost $344,096 for the exact same building we designed out.

      We went back and forth and they were willing to credit back a bit of it but still left us at $109,000 over the original. All of the communications and designs were shared with their team and was decided that the cost of the errors were just too high to build the building needed. I then asked for a refund of the deposit to move on. They had a Lawyer contact me saying the cost to refund the deposit was too much and they were not going to do that either. My guess is that they are in a financial struggle and do not have the money to return. Currently the options they have given are to pay the remining balance on the $180k for a building that will not work and they will not warranty, or walk away from the $34k deposit.

      Overall the experience was great. My project manager was always there to answer questions and he was very attentive. This is my first steel building and I was able to put it up with my dad. Armstrong was great and I am happy with the quality. Highly recommend to anyone I can! The grey siding I chose has had a lot of compliments! Absolutely loved the color!

      Very Satisfied. Quality product. Great after purchase support. Would recommend Armstrong buildings. Getting the building delivered took a while, but it was worth the wait. I had a smaller building (25X37) and two people could have easily assembled it. I would have no problem being contacted by potential Armstrong customers and showing them my building and discussing assembly with them.
