Summary
Good material, and solid construction will mean long life, and easy maintenance. In most instances this will mean buying metal buildings. Texas climate conditions will take a toll on any building exposed to our difficult weather. Metal storage buildings represent the best long term value. Let's look at the reasons: >>>

Wooden storage building problems

Wooden , or composition siding with composition roofing requires quite a bit of maintenance. If such a building is not periodically cleaned, sealed, and painted, the material will degrade quickly. Composite shingled roofs look great, for a while, but they will need to be replaced regularly over the years.

Of course, the purpose of the building should be kept in mind. If your goal is a small tea room for your Japanese garden, you might want to get a small wooden structure that will weather naturally. For almost all other applications, the more weather resistant the materials, the better. Wood looks good. Well, at least it looks good for a while. Wood exposed to the elements however, begins to look bad pretty quickly, and what is worse, is that it’s structural integrity is soon compromised!

The hidden cost of wooden storage buildings

Without human intervention, wooden structures soon destroy themselves. Human intervention in these situations involves cleaning, painting or staining, and doing so regularly. The best procedure is to clean, paint, or stain the building once a year, or at least once every 18 months. The average cost for such a procedure is about $500.00 per year! When choosing a building the longevity should be taken into account as a part of the value. Maintenance costs should also be considered. If the wooden building is going to last half as long as the metal building before needing to be replaced, and during that short life, add to the over all cost per year by $500.00, the value has decreased. If that cheap wooden structure with the shingled roof you picked up for $1500.00 dollars costs you $500.00 per year to maintain, and only lasts for a quarter of the time that the $3000.00 building, your bargain is not really a bargain.

Metal storage buildings

Materials matter! “It is hard to maintain out something that is engineered in.” That is what I always said to people who did not place enough emphasis on planning before starting a project, and then spent thousands on labor and material to keep something up, when the numbers could have been much smaller. I figured that out during my lifetime of property maintenance work. The statement is true, and will be true forever.

Metal building advantages

Metal buildings weather more gracefully than buildings built with most other materials, and as a result, stay functional for a longer period of time. The ability to withstand harsh weather conditions is one of the cheif advantages of metal buildings. Texas weather conditions can be brutal, and metal storage buildings have a better shot at surviving in the long run. Metal buildings are almost maintenance free. Most steel siding will last in good conditions for at least 25 years. The cost for such buildings may be a little higher initially, but the long term value is much greater!
