I was scheduled to do a carport style and put the extra ribs. The guy I was talking to in lining up to get it done quit answering his phone. I got on the internet and saw Olympia. I called and a dude by the name of Kevin answered the phone. He hooked me up, and we went to town with it. I'm glad I decided not to go with the carport style because this is so much better. It cost a little bit more with the way I had to set it up with the concrete. The insulation and reinstallation that belongs to that building are pre-cut. Kevin hooked me up with a dude that Olympia got and helped put these buildings together. It would have taken me a year to put it together but this guy had it up in a week’s time. The building was sitting there before my concrete was done. But everything worked together good.
I love the building. I'm glad I went with Olympia because there's a big difference. This building is strong enough that I can do whatever I want to do in it or on it. I live down in Cumberland, Maryland area, down in the foothills of Allegheny Mountains, and we get 3 or 4 foot snows. I wanted something strong enough to support the weight of the snow. When somebody treats me like Kevin did with respect and to make sure I got the product that I wanted, that means a lot to me. He could have dragged this out for three or four months. But when I talked to this man, everything started clicking. I had a building within five weeks.

I got a 100-foot long by 60-foot wide with three garage bays and steel with an installation package with Olympia Steel Buildings. They were very cooperative. The installation package wasn’t ready, but they got ahold of the installation people, which I was supposed to. They helped cover the situation. They made a call for me and got the installation package because it was separate from their building. All the bolts were there. There were no missing parts. It took them two weeks to put it up. They still came through and on time. I gave them a check but something happened to the check and we had to issue another one two months later. Other than that, everything went about as smooth as could be.

I had some frustrations with Olympia Steel on the outset because the delay in the building arrival was so much further than what the salesman had originally projected. But when it was all said and done and we had talked to a couple other steel building manufacturers, it was the condition of the market and the nation in regards to the steel as a whole. It was unavoidable. Everything else was flawless. Those guys got their act together and gave us the reality check early on in the game. They didn’t lead us along which I appreciated. Once they gave us the revised date which was 24 weeks further, they hit it. I was impressed. We’re using the building and the quality is fantastic. They did a good job on putting together the plan. They were detailed so that the average Joe can follow the plans and instructions and put together the building well.

The front end of the process including dealing with Steve, the guy that sold me the building, was wonderful. He went out and sourced my doors for me. The doors cost almost as much as the building does. The building was $35,000 and the doors were $20,000. When it came to delivery, Olympia Steel sucks. I ordered the building and signed the contract in November 2020 before the price increases happened. They were supposed to be out here in April of last year. I had a shoulder surgery, so I told them they could push it off. They took liberty with it and didn't deliver the building until October.
I gave them a chance to make it right. They missed the delivery date on my building by three times they were supposed to show up. One entire week, I rented a forklift and they didn't show up. They never reimbursed me for anything. There were parts missing in the building I didn't get till four months after the building was delivered. They’re cheap. I spoke with their big corporate guy. He didn't want to refund me my money for the forklift. It cost me a lot of money for that forklift. I ended up buying one because it's $1,800 a week to rent it. It cost 30 grand to buy one.
This was my iron fabrication shop so this is why this is unacceptable. The building isn’t even real steel. They're not doing the fabrication. They're sending this off to some shop in Alabama. It's not being made in Pennsylvania like I thought. I had a guy that was in the shipping department and he wouldn't even answer the phone for me. I've got a buddy that owns a very expensive marina. He wanted a building. Olympia Steel quoted him about $120,000 for it. I called him and told him when they didn't make it right with me. I warned him exactly what happened. The building works and it’s a good value. They’re the cheapest out there but you get what you pay for.

I talked to several outfits and the individual I dealt with at Olympia Steel was very nice. He was very knowledgeable and we worked through all the questions that I had. He was very responsive. They also had the best price. I was very happy.

The rep, Steve, was easy to work with. We ordered on December 1st of 2020, and he got right on it. I got the materials in September last year. Our experience has been good so far except for the garage doors. Right now, I'm waiting for some motors. They sent me phase three motors out instead of phase ones, and now I've been waiting a month to even get any response. Steve’s working on it, but the door company’s dragging their feet. But it’s a nice building and I like it.

BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Shorted panels, screws and assembly washers. Attachment pieces were misdrilled. The inventory upon arrival was not completed within their 30 day window (our Huge mistake) so they say it’s NOT THEIR PROBLEM. My question is WHAT HAPPENED TO INTEGRITY FROM A BUSINESS that has clearly dropped the ball. Called 3 times to discuss and no one answered the phone, left message every time. NO REPLY. ABSOLUTELY WILL NOT PURCHASE ANYTHING ELSE FROM THEM OR THEIR AFFILIATES. BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE.

We pursued a 30x78 and got a good price on it. I had a guy look at it, and it’s supposed to be one of the best. We did two windows in the front, and we did an extra door.

I had a good experience with Olympia. The only thing I didn't like was that they misrepresented how long it would take to get the building. It took much longer than they indicated. But the product, the completeness and the plans, everything about it was excellent. It was handled very well and professionally. Their rep did a good job.

The drawings were a little bit hard to put together because when you go to do the roof, you’d have to flip back to the wall page to see how the wall landed and there was a lot of that. So the drawings could be a little bit more easier to read. But other than that, the building itself was great, and the service was great. I've had a friend of mine purchased a building through them, and I got another buddy that’s gonna buy one next month from them as well. The out-of-state service really worked for me. The price was great, and the guy I had, Patrick was very patient with me. We went back and forth discussing a lot. I did contact some others, but they didn’t wanna meet the demands that I was wanting.

My experience with Olympia Steel Buildings has been awesome. I love them. They're great. They fit all my requirements for what I need in a joint venture partner to do steel buildings and cleanroom environments under my patent. The projects I use them for are clean room, hermetically sealed glow rooms for the cannabis and food industry. The cost is very fair. They're reasonably-priced and they understand the value of using Agritech with the USPTO patent. They're bending over backwards for their clients, so far. My sales rep, Kristen, is awesome. She's very easy to work with, accommodating, very prompt and very knowledgeable. She gets everything done.

With Olympia, things have been fantastic. I had originally contracted with another company several years ago and they completely failed to deliver all. But I was able to get a garage from Olympia as about the same size and price. They have a better setup on their website and it was easier to plan the structure out and break it out. Also, the representative I worked with was responsive. I could email him or call him and he would get right back to me if he wasn’t available. I explained to him what I was trying to do and he was super helpful in just making sure that I had everything I needed. Then, everything was delivered in perfect condition. The blueprint and everything were easy to read and understand and execute. Also, the quality was excellent.

For my workshop, I've gone to Olympia for their pricing and quality. However, the plans could’ve been a little more clearly written. Other than that, I talked to engineering and they helped me through some of my questions. The sales reps have been very good as well.

I did a lot of online research, and the salesman from Olympia that I talked to seemed very nice. He helped me get things when I needed it. I called him up, and he seemed like he took a personal interest in my ordering from the planning all the way to delivery. He was very thorough. I pursued the steel storage units with Olympia. The cost and quality are very good. We had a delay, and Olympia didn’t really waste a lot of time. The rep got his boss involved and they got to the bottom of it to get our metal to us when we needed it. I’d tell my friends to definitely purchase from them. We’re actually in the process now of purchasing another piece of land so we can order another building from them.

Olympia's reps are fantastic. We're still doing a 40 x 60 building with Olympia. The cost is a little much, and some of the stuff's not threading on right. Also, the truck driver was terrible. He couldn't back up the trailer. It's hilarious. But the building was delivered in one load. It wasn't that bad. Olympia should maybe hire a crew. It's a lot of work.

The quality of steel from Olympia is great, but their customer service is lacking. They don’t call people back. The first time I called, there was supposed to be an insulation. I called back to get it. And then, when we got our shipment, we didn’t know the insulation came at a different shipment. Nobody even told us that. It’d be nice to know that instead of calling and spending two days on the phone. Other than that, it's a great building.

I started working for a company that built their buildings with Olympia for about 13 years ago. And I’ve been in contact and worked on and off with them for the last 14 years. They’re good buildings. We actually built buildings and we built several different kinds, but theirs is right up there with the top-three that we enjoyed building. Their reps have also been very cordial, very professional and good to work with. When I’ve reached out to them or needed to call them they’ve always got right back to me. It’s been good working with them.

I purchased a storage building from Olympia and dealing with their sales reps was very good, easy and quick. Everything was on time and right when it was supposed to be scheduled.

I looked online and saw Olympia Steel Buildings' ad and those of other different places. I called Olympia and talked to Stewart. He was very helpful and though Olympia's billing was a bit more expensive than the other provider, because of Stewart being so helpful, I chose to go with Olympia. While we haven't erected our building yet, the quality of work has been excellent thus far.
Thank you for the review. Stewart is excellent! We look forward to you having a finished product you love.

I needed a wide span for a club that we use for a recreational building. Olympia Buildings had a good price and I went with them. The cost was a little high but it was accessible. For the most part, their reps were fine. However, we ran into a small problem, and when I had a small problem, I heard crickets. They were nowhere to be found. No engineers. No salespeople. We solved the problem on our own but I was a little bit disappointed. Still, their buildings are of really high quality which I like.
Thank you for the review. We are sorry for any inconvenience out team caused you. We are glad to hear it was settled and that you know have a high quality building to enjoy.

Olympia Steel Buildings is the best. I’m a builder and an erector and their customer service makes them the best. The customer service is top-notch. I bought a bunch of buildings off of them. We put those buildings up for churches and horse races. I put them up in Texas, Indiana and all over the place. The overall quality is very good. That was a story. We put up roof braces for the fire, and we put up several braces in a couple of years. And Olympia is a good business to deal with. You’re gonna get something messed up on them every now and then but they're really good about getting stuff back out to you and making it right. The way the rack goes together, there's a lot of forethought engineering into it. It’s a good product.
Thank you for the review. We value you as a customer and will continue to provide you with a quality building and the best service possible.

Olympia's communication and straightforwardness were the biggest things why I went with them. They do what they say they were going to do, and they do it on time. My biggest complaint with other companies is getting people on the phone. It's very uncomforting. So, what Olympia does is they respond. They return phone calls and they answer the phone. Then they do some things with their product that you don't have to ask for, too. You get more top-of-the-line type accessories with the building. With other companies, you have to pay extra for those, and if you don't ask for it, you don't get it. I'm a contractor and I've pursued building projects with them that are like straight wall buildings like we've used for airplane hangars and warehouses -- anything from small garages to large warehousing and manufacturing facilities. The quality of their steel is as good or better than any other companies out there. The cost is excellent, too.
Thank you for the review! We are so happy you are pleased with Olympia. We will continue to strive to give you the best quality building and fair prices.

I was doing a lot of research online and Olympia seemed to have the best quality product. They were also willing to work with me on different things. I ended up doing a did a 30x50x16 steel building with Olympia. I got a 14x14 door and two 10x10s and went with the four-inch insulation. Purchasing through Olympia was easy-going. We didn’t have to play much phone tag. They always answered the phone and were able to send me to the different departments if I had questions on different things.
Luckily, I really didn’t need any financing, so that helped things along pretty well. Everyone was very helpful and informative and made the process pretty easy. The building was pretty much as expected. I also went around and saw a couple of the buildings locally that was with them, so I had an idea of what it was going to be. The process of putting it up wasn’t too bad, too. There wasn’t a whole lot of extra work involved. It’s a good quality product, and I’ll probably end up getting a second one in the next couple of years. I’ve also recommended Olympia to a few friends that are going to be doing projects this year.

Olympia gave me the price that I needed but the sales representative was very much a used car salesman. He gave me numbers and changed them. He gave me colors and changed them as well. In fact, the building isn't the color he told me it was gonna be. Luckily, I like it. It’s dark green with light trim. But it was supposed to be Sahara tan with a chocolate trim. It’s gonna be a workshop barn type of thing and at first, it seemed like a good building but the plans were a little more confusing. I was really confused and my builder was confused as well. But we eventually got it up and I appreciate it, like the thing that went into the seam. I found that’s to help keep it watertight. We had our first rain and it kept all the water out. So that was good news. The quality of the steel seems good so far. If friends and family ask me about Olympia, they are welcome to come look at the building. I would them it’s great and that it should work.

I decided to work with Olympia Steel based on their price, but I am not impressed with them. I was promised dates when I was gonna receive the building. I had contractors working but no steel showing up. It sucks as far as getting it. I thought they were extremely busy. They are behind the schedule and we are four weeks past what they said. We were supposed to get insulation for the ceiling, the roof, and we never did get the insulation. They ended up crediting me the money. Even so, I would not go with them again.
