Armstrong Steel took $15,000 from my wife and I and returned nothing but heartaches. They falsely advertised factory discount prices on building accessories and only after signing their contract grossly inflated their prices. They also sent us an $11.000 dollar increase and wanted to charge us for openings that were promised in the initial discussions. When we asked for our deposit back they audited our account and threatened to charge us more. We will never be treated fairly by this company because they are without a moral compass. Please just read all the fine print before you sign a contract, they used every aggressive predatory practice in the book. It was a very painful loss and experience for us.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We at Armstrong Steel value our customers and want to address your concerns.

On December 13,2023, you signed a Steel Building Purchase Order for a 50’x60’x16’ pre-engineered metal building. The agreement, which you reviewed and initialed, clearly states that the initial payment is non-refundable and that you’re responsible for any cost increases—like materials or shipping—after signing. We’ve provided multiple documents outlining this process, which you acknowledged understanding.

Regarding accessories like doors and windows, these weren’t part of the original order. We provided a separate quote, and on January 10,2024, you signed a purchase order for those additions. You were never obligated to buy them from us or alter the original plan. As for pricing, we haven’t falsely advertised anything, the components we help source for customers are provided at a discounted rate. As stated previously, no customer is obligated to purchase these components through us, we are the building manufacturer and partner with vendors to source those items, if needed.

We’re disappointed you feel this way and have tried to make things right. On March 29,2024, we reached out directly with an offer to negotiate a compromise and move forward with your project. We’re still waiting to hear back from you. Armstrong remains ready to fulfill the agreement.

We put up an Armstrong building for a client and couldn't say enough about the quality of the building. Everything arrived on time and was clearly labeled. We haven't built a steel kit like this before, but we had zero issues with the assembly. Would recommend Armstrong to anyone

Strongly recommend using Armstrong steel if you are purchasing a metal building. I contacted several steel building companies while in search of a building for my barndominum. Armstrong had the best customer service, the building looked excellent, went together great and if there were any issues along the way Armstrong quickly took care of them.

DO NOT BUY from Armstrong Steel
I believe that Armstrong Steel is using unfair and deceptive business practices. They misrepresented that my $6524,00 deposit was required to "lock in" a price and then falsely blamed me for delays as an excuse to deny me the $5219.10 "rebate" agreed upon in the original contract. They claimed I didn't sign a final design agreement on time that they had never sent me!
There are so many reviews online about others with similar experiences. A news feature regarding legal action against Armstrong Steel https://www.denver7.com/news/contact-denver7/englewood-based-armstrong-steel-faces-class-action-lawsuit
Alleges there are more than 100 class members, and the amount in controversy exceeds $5,000,000. Another news article https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/summerville-couple-blames-colorado-steel-company-for-dream-house-disaster/ar-AA1bpUKE
Also www.denver7.com/news/investigations/send-this-lie-to-the-news-armstrong-steel-customers-offered-refunds-with-unusual-condition
And a Facebook page Armstrong Steel Buildings Victim group has 154 members. My experience with Armstrong Steel is not unique.
Armstrong Steel employees refuse to take responsibility for their breach of contract and delay issues but have no problem refusing to refund your deposit when you do not agree to pay more than the original contract price. Be aware their terms of agreement on the website states: " You, the consumer, forfeit all rights to go to court to defend or assert your rights. The consumer also forfeits all rights to bring class actions against Armstrong Steel. By using the goods or services provided by Armstrong Steel, you give consent to these restrictions." What type of business demands customer forfeit their rights? A dishonest one...

Michele,

We appreciate your feedback and would like to provide some clarification. The purchase order you signed clearly states that payments are considered non-refundable in return for the personalized, engineered drawings provided to you.

You purchased your building on 6/17/2022 with the understanding that you would need to finalize your design to be submitted for fabrication within 30 days. Instead, you did not do so until August 14, which was well outside the contracted time period, resulting in the loss of your rebate. Despite our attempts to find a resolution and offer the rebate back, you refused to move forward with the project.

We sincerely apologize for your negative experience, and we do appreciate you taking the time to post your concerns. We strive to work collaboratively with our customers, and our team remains committed to helping provide you with the building you ordered and agreed to. If you wish to discuss this matter further, please feel free to reach out to us via email at ClientAdvocate@armstrongsteel.com or by calling us at 1-800-345-4610 during our regular business hours.

Working with Armstrong has been a wonderful experience. I just past the design phase working with Breanna Ibanez my project manager who has walked me through each step. We made a few design modifications which dialed in my building requirements. Can't wait to see the product onsite and built. Blueprint and logistics are up next then to fabrication. I expected the remaining steps to be just as smooth.

Horrible business
June 8, 2023

This is by far the worst business I have ever dealt with. They will take your money and never actually do what they said. Then contact you a year later trying to scam you out if more money.

June 6, 2023

I ordered my "dream" shop upon retiring in July of 2021, put down my $9K deposit and was told my the salesman that I could expect delivery first of the year 2022. I contacted my "project manager" numerous times during '22 only to be told "a couple more months", so after a couple of complaints to the BBB I finally received drawings in the late fall. I submitted my drawings to the permitting department for approval and had to pay all fees AGAIN because it had been over a year. The plans as submitted to me could not be approved, there were no footing details, no slab details, and no details as to how the shop was to attached to my home. I contacted Armstrong and was told everything they needed was on page 2, permitting checked the drawings again and same results. Contacted Armstrong again and this time was told that they did not supply these details and that I would have to hire an outside engineer to supply these details. Why was I not told this the first time or early on in this process? I am sure that they have some satisfied customers but again they aren't what they seem! Check Facebook victims group, over 135 members! Can't add pictures because there's nothing to show! I'm just glad I didn't do the excavation on my property preparing for the building!

Stephen,

We understand, for many people, a steel building is a once in a lifetime purchase and strive to provide an exceptional experience. We do our best to detail costs a customer might incur and provide a short and detailed explanation of what every customer is agreeing to on the first page of a purchase order, including our refund policies. Our records indicate that your Project Manager reached out to you via email and phone several times, and received only three replies from you. Our goal is to make the process as seamless as possible for you, but without communication, this is impossible. Because of this lack of communication, your scheduling documents we sent to you were never returned to us, nor did you reach out to your Project Manager to notify us of any issue. We allowed an extra 30 days as you requested to finalize your project, and also clearly state in the terms and conditions of your contract that it is the customer’s responsibility to design their foundation - we manufacture metal buildings, we are not a general contractor so we do not provide concrete foundation plans. We sincerely apologize for your negative experience, and we do appreciate you taking the time to post your concerns. If you would like to speak further on this issue, please email us at ClientAdvocate@armstrongsteel.com or call us at 1-800-345-4610 during our normal business hours.

Excellent customer service! I had been getting quotes on a building from several suppliers and Joshua of Armstrong Steel was the most responsive and answered my questions in timely manner. He was easy to get it touch with and always returned my calls and emails. Joshua gave me great confidence in the quality of service Armstrong Steel could provide. Other companies could take a lesson from Joshua on how to provide excellent customer service.

They work with you
March 2, 2023

Hello everyone. There admittedly is some negative press going around about this company BUT take a few minutes to check all the facts. Remember that IF people are making reviews it is typically the few that had a bad experience, or an exceptionally good experience. Were some people disappointed with their experience through the COVID crisis with delays and/or cost changes? Yes. However, COVID pricing affected all of us and still is. Finally we are starting to see some relief. I am not affiliated with this company at all but rather was working to get a building through them.
Well, what about my experience? I have been on the phone many multiple times with these kind, helpful and accommodating people. They went out of their way to make my project work. The worked with me on the pricing and the shipping to make the project fit my budget. I was able to get in on some special pricing due to a large order being placed, however a budget problem came up and I was not able to continue with my project. Again, these people worked with me to everything they could to help me out. Ultimately I was not able to continue with the project, at least not yet, but even though this was the case they STILL were kind, understanding and helpful. They really wanted to help me make it work but when my budget got killed by unforeseen circumstances they came through. In a few months I guarantee I will be working with them again, detailing my dream garage workshop. Thank you Armstrong. Good luck!

Steel Building Purchase – Pima, Arizona

I have enjoyed working with Armstrong Steel. Every person I have dealt with has been very professional and courteous – the salesperson, the project manager, engineering department and accounting/billing.
In particular I have been extremely impressed with my project manager – Devian Trevino. Although everyone has been good, Devian has gone beyond what I expected. She has been extremely professional and responsive to my questions but has added a very personal touch while still representing Armstrong Steel. In my professional life I lead a process engineering group within a large oil and gas company. I was concerned with the technical ability of those individuals but also with their ability to find answers to questions and to deal with the customer in a manner such that the customer would come back to work with us again. Devian has the characteristics of the person I would like to hire.
There has been no pressure, and they went out of their way to give me advice in several areas along with providing quality structural drawings of the building and an anchor bolt plan for the foundation. YES, I am happy with my purchase, and I have recommended Armstrong Steel to my neighbors to contact regarding their own Steel Building Purchase.
