Steel Garage & RV

Client Project

  • Garage & RV Steel Building
  • Arroyo Grande, CA
  • Specialty Tube Steel
  • 1,950 sq ft
Timeline: 2 weeks

Project Overview

This project involved the design and construction of a garage and RV storage steel building for an individual in Arroyo Grande, CA. This vast storage space is intended to provide plenty of storage for multiple full size RVs and other vehicles, equipment, and light shop work within a single integrated structure.

The building utilizes a pre-engineered specialty tube steel frame system, chosen for its durability, cost efficiency, and ability to provide large clear-span spaces.

Project Purpose: The primary goal was to create a functional, centralized workspace that would accommodate office operations (admin and project management), shop space for equipment and fabrication, storage for tools and materials, employee support areas (restrooms and circulation)
Location: Site selection supports accessibility for construction operations while complying with local zoning and building regulations typical of California commercial/light industrial developments.
Dimensions: 25 W x 78 L x 14 H, with 3:12 roof pitch, and 17 H peak
Total Usable Area: 25 ft × 78 ft = 1,950 sq ft
The folks at PWS are rock solid and they know how to build a quality metal building. At the time I was doing my research on companies to build my new workshop, PWS had very few online reviews which made me a little unsure. Eventually I decided to have PWS build my building largely based on Denny and his responsiveness and trustworthy nature. PWS handled all the permitting and coordination with their subcontractor who handled the extensive grading and concrete work. This work was all done to a very high standard. The building itself was beautifully constructed to high quality, and soon after completion endured very high rainfall levels without one drop of water inside. Chris in their office is also a tremendous resource and always responsive to all needs. Why choose PWS? Choose them if you value good old-fashioned trust, metal building experience and a quality final product. I would highly recommend PWS to anyone in the market for a quality metal building.
