“Best supplier and installer of steel structures hands down!”

John R.
7/3/17

The guys and gals at Solid Steel are the most efficient and knowledgeable people I have ever dealt with when it comes to a new steel building project. They met a tight deadline and told me from the start they aim to come in on or under budget without costly change orders. That's exactly what they did. Thanks Mike I will definitely recommend to anyone needing a new steel building. Awesome experience!

“Avoid!”

We had a horrible experience as soon as the contract was signed / deposit made. Communication was subpar, deadlines were missed, delays occurred daily with no explanation. They missed their first deadline which dragged our project out significantly longer than originally stated. The installation crew they sent was an embarrassment. After they were gone, our crew had to go and tighten every single nut and bolt because the vast majority were hardly tightened whatsoever. We are now getting calls from their vendors asking for contact information as they have yet to be paid and cannot reach them. Horrible experience and wish we could start all over with a different company!

We provided Flotation Docking Systems (this customer) with the best building and service possible. We worked with their foundation contractor and spent countless hours making sure the project went perfectly, however they delayed the foundation installation by 6 months due to their weather. When the foundation was finally completed, they expected a mobilization within a few weeks. We erect over 50+ buildings a year and while weather was a factor for their foundation person, we weren't granted the same understanding. I call every customer after we complete the project to make sure that they are satisfied. After completion, I spoke to Cody Carmichael (her husband) was extremely happy and loved the building. We went above and beyond the call of duty and installed their bi-fold doors at a great discount, provided a great product and service, and after we receive our final payment, we are greeted with a negative review. We never had any contact with Teresa other than asking why she wrote this as it wasn't the view of her husband.

Never use this guy, he will not pay subs and will for sure steal from you. NEVER WORK WITH THIS GUY WITHOUT A LIEN AGREEMENT! AND NEVER USE THIS COMPANY< YOU WILL BE SORRY LIKE ME. My name is Tom Banks and I own Banks Gas Services in North Versailles, call me at *******170 and I will be happy to show you liens and court filings because he will not pay venders or subs

Thomas K Banks's VP Jim Gracen wanted to add bathrooms into the project after permits were pulled and construction had started. This He completely changed the scope and occupancy of the buildings (3). We presented the Change Order for it and he kept delaying on when he was going to send the payment. He kept claiming that his bank wanted additional things done prior to us getting our payment. The payment was $142,712.11. We then had to put a lien on the property and he had via email, phone and web degraded and insulted me, my business, employees, and family. He has called and made threats and had to call the Ohio Township Police, who have given multiple warnings to stop the threats. We are currently suing him in Allegheny County, PA over the balance he owes us. Michael A. Masula, C. E. O.

No doubt Solid Steel Building, Inc. is the best provider of quality steel and metal.

They do not pay their subcontractors in a timely fashion. They refuse to communicate with us. The work is done, the invoice filed. The repeated statements are that they will pay us when they receive payment from the bank - which is illegal. It's not just us, they are doing this to many subcontractors and even their suppliers. If you care about "the little guy" with the small businesses to run that support this business, do not hire them. We have spoken with the business owner where the work was done and they said that they have gotten many calls from lawyers about liens that will be placed on them (in Pennsylvania, a subcontractor has to place a lien on the place where the work was done & the owner of that company has to work it out with the Contractor to get the subcontractors paid.).
I will not put my name on this review, because I am sure they will do something in retaliation.

This sub-contractor was caught doing heroin on the job. We had to remove him from the site and have someone else complete the work. Michael A. Masula, C. E. O.

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY TO BUILD A DOG HOUSE. THEY MESSED UP MY BUILDING AND COST ME THOUSANDS OF EXTRA DOLLARS!

Unfortunately Dennis didn't order the building from us from the beginning. He went to a competitor who was cheaper and we were here to save his job. When the competitor withdrew from installing his building, he called us to put it up. The reality of the situation was the building designed incorrectly by the other company. The things that made us more expensive were the things we had correctly designed the first time. The anchor bolts were installed incorrectly and had them make the changes. Needless to say, we completed the building and made the corrections that needed to happen. He tried to cut corners to save a buck and ended it costing more. Michael A. Masula, C. E. O.
