No. We sell to homeowners, contractors, architects, and builders. Everyone gets the same quality and service.

What's the typical lead time?

Standard Western colors from Metal Sales and AEP Span are typically available within 1–2 weeks. Specialty colors, custom finishes, and structural steel may require additional lead time.

Yes. Most panels are ordered cut to your exact length — no field cutting necessary. We also fabricate custom trim to match any panel color.
