Steel Buildings Built for Scott and Lafayette Parish
Scott is a small town of about 8,100 people in Lafayette Parish, about 220 miles from our manufacturing plant in Kilgore, Texas. Tropical systems from the Gulf can bring hurricane-force wind and days of heavy rain. Our metal buildings are made from galvanized steel with Sherwin-Williams coated panels, so what you store inside stays dry.
Every building is custom: choose the bay count, roll-up and walk-in doors, windows and color. We recommend a vertical roof for the best wind rating and fastest runoff. We can anchor to a concrete slab, or install on level ground with auger anchors if you don’t have a pad yet.
From garages in town to shops and barns out in the county, we build for every kind of property. Check with the City of Scott about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews install throughout Scott and nearby Lafayette, Carencro, Broussard and Rayne. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
