Testimonials

From the people who know our buildings best.

it will be a great asset to our walk-in trade. I want to congratulate Universal Steel for the material and expertise that we received from the personnel of their company. Everyone was very polite and courteous… we will definitely be calling you for a bid on any new ventures.
Roger B. Smith
The whole process, from working with Jim Turner during the planning & design, working with Tammy with the shipping and all the way through to completion was a delight. I was amazed at how everything fit. I would and have highly recommended your product. An all metal structure like yours is actually cheaper than wood framing – I did the comparison. I love my building
Sam Tommie
The new building sustained the storm and didn’t have one failure. The wind was actually hitting the front with the two large pull down doors and their integrity maintained. I honestly thought when I went home from headquarters today that it would be destroyed. I have to give the engineers kudos for a job well done!!!!! One hell of a building John. Hurricane Irma, 130 mph sustained and 155 mph gusts head on. Still standing like a champ!
