Custom Steel Shop in Post Falls ID | Classic Car + Future Apartment | 13509
Project Summary
This custom steel shop in Post Falls, Idaho was built for a homeowner who wanted better construction, better value, and a plan for the future. After downsizing from a previous home, he needed a shop the same size as before—but built right.
Choosing a Better Builder
His previous shop was built by another contractor. When it came time to build again, the pricing felt high and the quality fell short. Steel Structures America offered the best price and a stronger build from the start.
The shop was constructed on his daughter’s property with a long-term goal in mind. The plan allows space for a future apartment so family can stay close as the years go on.
Built Stronger from the Ground Up
The difference was easy to see. “Looking at how they built it — it’s far superior built than the other two that I had.” The framing looked cleaner. The structure felt stronger. The details showed care.
The foundation made the biggest impact. The building uses PermaColumn® precast concrete columns, which protect posts from ground contact and moisture. As the owner said, “That’s basically going to last forever.”
A Shop Built to Protect What Matters
Inside the shop sits a 1963 Impala Super Sport with an original 327 engine and four-speed transmission. He bought the car in 1970 and has owned it ever since.
Service That Stands Behind the Build
When a window broke unexpectedly, Steel Structures America responded fast. They repaired it right away. When another issue came up, the crew handled it without delay. “If I had any little problem, they came right out and took care of it.”
What looked like a premium option at first turned out to be the lowest bid. The customer received stronger materials, better service, and better value.
Built for today. Designed for the future.
This custom steel shop in Post Falls, Idaho delivers long-term durability, flexibility, and peace of mind.
