Steel quanset

Where do I start. When purchasing this building I was contacted by Steve Rogers with a building that someone had put the downpayment on but was unable to complete the transaction due to the fires in BC at the time. The price started at $90k roughly and when we were done I got the "ridiculous deal" of $50k for a 40' x 116' building. He sent me pictures wof a building that had windows on the front above the bay door. When the building arrived two weeks late, there are no windows on the front, he explained "that was an example of the type of building." Let's call that strike one.
While trying to find a company to build the building I stumbled across a neighbour with a building fro them. Said I bought it from the same company and inquired on the price. He was hesitant to tell me because he got a great deal on his due to some fires that were happening at the time. Someone had made the downpayment and couldn't go through with the purchase because of the fires. That sounded pretty familiar. Then I found a company willing to build it, when he asked who I purchased it from, I said future buildings. He proceeded to ask me if I had got a great deal due to the fires and someone not being able to follow through after making their deposit. I was told that he had heard countless people were told the same story. We will call this strike two.
Lastly when purchasing the building I was told that if I hung a sign up for them to advertise, I would get a $5000 rebate for the building. Well now that the building is up, the sign is on it, and I have sent them the pictures, it has taken me a week to get a hold of anyone. I was now told
"My apologies, the building rebates only apply if your able to make the new brochure providing the pictures were applicable as well the other rebate would be given if your able to generate a new customer once they have the unit delivered providing we are aware of how the deal was acquired. Sorry if I confused the marketing rebate."
None of that was discussed or mentioned, only that I would be getting a $5000 rebate on the building for advertising.

Free-standing garage

Our experience with Future Building was very good. Our rep, Kyle, was very knowledgeable, helpful, and motivated to make a sale. Buying from Future Buildings was also much cheaper than a traditional-build. I will be sure to recommend this company.

Everyone at Future Buildings has been really nice and helpful, the salesman Mike Torkos has really been nice to work with, good guy. I would like to thank him for all his patience in answering my many questions and for always being pleasant to speak with even through the additions/changes I made to the original plans. Thanks again, Mike Davey

Great product, Great service

We wanted a new machine shed for the farm and James helped us decide what we needed. He responded quickly to our many questions and made the whole project much easier to handle. The materials are first rate and the blueprints very explicit. All in all we had a great experience.

roof system for new house

Future Buildings provided seamless service from my initial idea, through to completion and follow-up. My project was different and they provided in-depth support including access to engineers to help with designing, they did not take my word for anything (thankfully) and did not make any assumptions about my project, queried and questioned until they had a firm understanding of what I was trying to accomplish. Travis in sales was instrumental in getting the right info to everyone involved. 10/10! Recommend highly
