About Mueller, Inc.
Mueller is a 75 year old company founded and based in Texas. Over the years, the products Mueller has manufactured have included metal water cisterns and metal construction materials. Today, Mueller manufactures pre-engineered metal buildings and metal roofing panel products for the home.
Commercial Buildings
They manufacture pre-designed metal building kits that are fastened together with bolts and available in a wide variety of sizes and shapes ranging from 24' x 24' to 40' x 60'. To meet any specialized needs you can design your own specifications, and Mueller will engineer and custom manufacture a kit for you. Mueller also sells what they term "Weld-Up Buildings" sold as raw steel panels. You cut and weld your own panels on site to build the structure. For experienced metalworkers, this can be a speed and cost-saving option.
Residential Buildings
Mueller manufactures dozens of residential buildings that are pre-engineered and come with all parts necessary for build-out. The range includes small backyard storage sheds, carport kits, mid-size barns and large warehouses and garages. Each of these come with options to customize your building including roof style, color of panels, trim and accessories.
Metal Roofing
Mueller also manufactures metal roofing panels and systems for residential buildings. Being durable, resistant to extreme weather conditions and longer lasting than most conventional roofing materials, metal is a cost effective and low maintenance solution. Because metal roofs can be painted with light colors and specially formulated paints to reflect UV rays and heat, they provide greater energy efficiency than typical roof finishes.
Costs
Mueller makes a very wide selection of metal building kits to meet most any building, shelter or storage need. The costs range from small, shed-size utility buildings for $845 to large storage barn kits for $18,000. In addition, Mueller manufactures pre-engineered custom designed kits. An online cost-estimating tool can be found on their corporate website.
