An advantage to building with metal is its flexibility. Not literal flexibility, although metal does bend, but in the types of buildings you can design with it as well as the flexibility of the completed building itself. Metal buildings are extremely well suited to the design-build process in which a single entity performs both design and construction of the building. Metal buildings provide endless options in size, shape, and use. They can be completely finished out, or they can remain a metal shell. It all depends on the owner’s needs. What if your needs change? Your steel building can be moved, renovated, or rearranged to suit your new requirements. Steel is a versatile building material that can be used to create structures that provide no clue whatsoever that they are built of steel. Steel also provides ample space for additional insulation, routes for wiring and plumbing, as well as room to install ductwork for the HVAC system. GET A QUICK BUILDING QUOTE   DESIGN & P...

Steel buildings have “non-load bearing” exterior walls allowing you to use several different construction materials to enclose the building or easily expand the structure. On the ...

Those who have been in the metal buildings industry for a while are familiar with the volatility of the steel market. The cost of hot-rolled sheet peaked in 2004 and then again in 2008 just before the real estate crisis. At the time, this was noted as “the worst steel shortage in history” and the mills were working at 90% capacity. When the housing bubble burst, prices dropped suddenly over a 19-week period, as did capacity to 33%. The dramatic swings are unsettling, however, familiar. But like everything else that has defined 2020, this recent spike is just another event we are ready to see the other side of. No business, market or economy has gone unaffected by the short-term effects of the global pandemic, and the steel industry has been no exception. The imbalance between supply and demand is undoubtedly the main driver of US steel prices increasing. With limited capacity—both planned and unplanned—the scales have firmly tipped in the mills’ favor. These prices are intricately conn...

3 Reasons Why Good Ventilation is a Big Deal Prevents mold and rot. Recent years have brought building science technologies that are making homes tighter and tighter. All of the moisture that is naturally created inside of our homes by cooking, laundry, houseplants, and bathing that used to migrate toward the drier outdoors through loose windows and doors and other ways is now trapped inside of our homes.Unless your home has a great vapor barrier behind the walls and ceilings, that moisture then ends up in the attic. If it is not properly vented out of the attic, it condenses on cold surfaces in your attic such as the underside of the roof when nighttime temperatures drop. Condensation in an attic will eventually lead to mold and even rot – not good things! Here’s a 3-minute video by our own Todd Miller on the subject of metal roofing and condensation. Prevents high home operating and energy costs. Another chief reason for good attic ventilation is to help reduce your home’s summer hea...

It’s hard to believe but Isaiah Industries is closing in on 40 years as a leading specialty metal roofing manufacturer. While the company was started by my father, I have been here pretty much every step of the way, working through high school and college and joining full time the week after college graduation. Along the way, I have learned a lot of lessons, and I still strive to learn each and every day. One of the lessons I remember learning many years ago is that homeowners who choose quality metal roofs are very proactive consumers. I remember many years ago being in Sacramento for a week of sales calls on contractors and distributors. One morning, I had an appointment cancel on me so I took the opportunity to drive through a nice neighborhood and write down a couple of hundred addresses of homes that obviously needed roofs. When I returned to my office in Ohio, I then mailed letters and brochures to all of those addresses, thinking that surely I’d find a few homeowners who were re...

At Worldwide Steel, we’re committed to customer satisfaction. Not just when your steel building is shiny and new – when it’s shiny and old, too. That’s why every metal building, house, shed or hangar we help you design comes with a limited 50-year warranty: one that we consider the best steel building warranty in the business. It’s easy to understand, it’s comprehensive, and it’s backed by Worldwide Steel pride. Not many other steel building vendors provide a warranty as all-encompassing or long-lasting as ours, and we think we know why: When you work with another steel building company, they’re probably sourcing parts and services from third party suppliers.

From the first time you get on the phone with a Worldwide Steel team member, you’ll be able to hear and feel the pride we take in our work, the excitement we have about your project, and the knowledge we have...
