I'm in the process of purchasing some property and will need to build a shop sometime in the future. I know materials are high now, but wondering if anybody has had a shop built lately and what their cost on it was? I'm looking at probably a 30x40 or 40x40.

Anyone had one built lately that wants to share what it cost them?

You talking metal only or full turnkey (site prep, slab, electrical, plumbing, etc)?

March of 2020, 34x40x14 mueller building with two 12 foot doors, insulated, and on a slab totalled at about $40k for slab, building, and erection.

Finished October of 2019. 40x60 insulated with 15' lean to along one 60' side. Concrete (engineered) underneath building and lean-to. 4 - 14' roll up doors with two walk through doors. Small bathroom and bedroom inside main building. Roughly 85k all in ( electrical conduit, septic, etc.).

Lots of factors to consider in pricing. Components, design, doors (door size and type), eaves, plumbing, septic, electric and so on.

Signing my contract tomorrow.

24x40x11 with 15' carport overhang and 10' lean to on one side. 6" slab, pole barn build, insulated, 3 roll up doors, 1 walk in door and 4 windows.

$36k

I'll be doing the subgrade, which will run me about $2500 to import and compact the select fill. I'll run the water line, which will be about $250, haven't priced electrical yet, but budgeting $7500 to install a subpanel and run abou 120' of buried line from my existing panel to the barn and have a panel installed. I'll do interior electrical from there based on how I ultimately lay everything out.

Also budgeting $5/SF to have the interior epoxy coated

Mine is a bit smaller but from Jan 2021. A 21' x 24' steel building. $4,300 for the slab and ~$9,000 for the metal building from Metal Depots, they had a 9% increase in price since then. I put it up myself, contractor gave a bid of ~$3k to erect.

Good info. That's about what I was expecting. I had a 24x30 built on my current house about 10 years ago and prices haven't doubled but pretty dang close since then it appears.

My shop is being built near Angleton, but they are out of Plantersville and do work all over the place. Wolf also had a pretty solid quote for me, but they don't do concrete work.

Added a 32x32 CARPORT to a home renovation July 2021. Slab and materials.$42k. Still waiting for the metal roofing to get here. So let's just up it to $60k.

I'm bidding one in Bandera right now. 30x50 with 18' x50
Lean to, 18' ceiling insulated, two roll up 14' doors a 10' roll up door and an access door with 2 windows. Horizon buildings here about $40k with tax and delivery. Concrete quoted at $12/sqft, erecting about $5/sq ft seems to be pretty average. Cost up pretty significant now compared to
Last year.

Are you a contractor or are you just building one for yourself?

Finished my 30x50x10 back in April. I went with the 10' eaves because my tractor and mule will live in there, so I only needed 8'x12' doors. I had a local guy draw up the plans for what we wanted. This also included the slab plan. I took the plans to Pioneer Steel in Kurten and they put a package together. The red iron is in stock, and we had to wait a little while for the outer steel. I had a local guy pour the slab, including putting all of the plumbing lines in. I hired another local guy to come and erect the building. All of the frame was welded and we used the blanket insulation from Pioneer with the skin over the top of that. We have a metal walk through door (Pioneer) and originally we only had 2 windows, but I purchased 3 more that were installed during construction. I bought the windows at Lowes, double pane aluminum frame for less than $150 each. There are 2 garage doors in the front and one in the rear for a drive through (highly recommended). I bought the garage doors in Bryan at American Garage Door, and they are insulated as well, and had them install them once the building was up.

Pioneer was considerably less expensive than the place in Brenham ,DDM). Brenham place told me it was at least a 2 month delivery window (this was back in February).

I had a local electrician wire the shop for me, nothing crazy. Haven't gotten around to putting in the little bathroom yet, but I do have running water that I plumbed from our well for outdoor hose bibs. All in all, very happy with the way it turned out.

The insulation is a must in my opinion, wether it be the blanket type, or the spray in kind. When we get out there and opened the door this morning it was @74 degrees inside. I'll eventually wall off part for my workshop area, and put in an AC wall unit.

Recently priced 40x60 with 3 overhead doors. turn key was 35/sqft. I'm looking for other options as that seems outrageous

My brother works for Tyler Building Systems. Give him a call and he can give you an idea of cost. He's obviously in Tyler, but they do buildings all over the state.

Hella pumped. Skin, doors and windows are going on right now. Just signed the quote for the epoxy coating for the floor as well. Hopefully in about 30 days i'll be able to start moving things in.

Next door neighbor had one similar to it built back about 6 years ago. Neat looking "timberframed" building as opposed to a red iron building. I did something similar back in 07 on a 24 x 44 foot barn using 8x8 treated timbers for the up rights, 2x8's for the rafters, 2x4's to attach the u panel roofing and 2x6's to attach the wall planks. Did 1x12 and 1x3 board and baton walls out of cypress that I milled on halves with a local rancher here.
