Benefits of Using the Heartland Build Crew

Heartland crews are trained and familiar with our process, standards and materials. That means you receive the the fastest and best build possible. Using Heartland crews also gives you the benefit of the Fall Heartland Installation Warranty.

If you decide to not use Heartland Crew's to erect your steel building please be aware that erecting steel buildings can be very dangerous. Be sure to be aware of and follow all safety procedures required by law, OSHA, and all other
applicable safety standards. If you are not experienced, it is highly recommended that you use a professional and properly insured erector who has the knowledge and experience with the specific brand of building to meet your requirements.

The following guidelines are based on some national average assumptions and are for estimating purposes only. They are not intended to provide a detailed or accurate cost for a specific building.

The following items give you just a few of the variables in each specific geographical area that will need to be considered when estimating the erecting of a steel building.

1 . Weather Conditions - wind, cold, heat and snow can all have an impact on the work schedule.

2. Labor - Availability of labor personnel as well as the hourly wage of experienced labor.

3. Equipment Required - Cost of Local Equipment Rental, Lease or Purchase.

4. Site Conditions - Working in a large level area will be much faster that working on the side or mountain top!

5. Insurance Cost - Many "gypsy" erectors do not carry insurance at all and pay cash to their labor to avoid workmen's compensation, general and other liability insurances. Request copies and make sure that each Builder or erector carry's the appropriate insurance coverage.

6. Complexity of Structure - a simple box building will be much faster than a complex building with 2-story mezzanines, mansards, roof hips or valleys, exterior stucco or other types of aesthetic added value products.

7. Clear Span Width of Building - dear span buildings over 60-80' wide can take more time due to the safety requirements and equipment needed to handle longer and heavier beams.

8. Travel Time to Jobsite - obviously the amount of time to get to the site each day or travel cost if applicable, will influence the final cost.

*Warranty: Our warranty on structural materials (red iron) is 1 year on workmanship . On the roof and wall panels a 25 to 40 year warranty pending on your panel finish choice.
