Metal Buildings Built for Connecticut
In Connecticut, extra garage space is precious. Older homes often have small garages or none at all, and a steel garage is one of the most cost-effective ways to protect vehicles from snow, ice and salt.
Connecticut uses a statewide building code enforced by each town's building official, so a permit is the normal path for an enclosed building. Omega quotes Connecticut buildings rated for the snow and wind at your address, with drawings to support your application.
Nor'easters and New England snow
Snow loads are a primary design factor across the state, and higher in the northwest hills. Nor'easters bring heavy, wet snow and strong wind together. Shoreline towns also face coastal storm wind. Steel buildings with vertical roofs handle this combination well.
Our roof recommendation for Connecticut
Choose a vertical roof. Snow slides off rather than sitting on the panels, and it's the best performer in wind.
