A quality building, well placed and well maintained, will give many years of durable use. Key to a successful modular building includes understanding your needs, doing your homework, and finding a reputable dealer. Doing this will not only save time and money but reduce the stress level of installing a new modular barn or storage building.
The first step is to obviously determine your needs. Different uses have different requirements. Is the building for animals or is it going to be for garden equipment? A horse barn requires more drainage and has different access issues than a garden shed. Building usage needs to be a primary consideration.
What kind of building will it be – a large modular horse barn or a small vinyl clad garage? Now is the time to locate a reputable dealer. If you approach the dealer knowing what your requirements are they will be able to guide you. The choices of building styles, construction materials and options are considerable, and a qualified dealer is crucial in getting exactly what you want and need! Next is the site itself, is it leveled or will it need to be leveled? Is there access for trucks and equipment, can the delivery vehicles get in? You will need to identify where you will be entering and leaving the site. Often two accesses are needed. One is temporary and will be used for delivery and the other will be the actual access.
