It does sound a very good price.
I recently had my 12m x 8m hangar built and just the hangar (with 2 x 5m roller doors and a very nifty removable sliding central column) cost 25430 incl VAT. Getting it erected was 3420 incl VAT.
I couldn't believe the ridiculous requirements of the planning people regarding the concrete. In Oz they will literally pour 100mm of concrete straight onto water-compacted sand and that is it. My floor in the UK is 150mm of concrete on top of 150mm of crushed concrete (etc). The four corner columns are on pads 1800 x 1800 x 1200!!! and the minor columns are on 750 x 750 x 750. All of this for a poxy 12m x 8m tin shed. Never mind the stupid fire regulation that says I have to fireproof the rear wall because it comes within 6m of a boundary. That 'boundary is an arbitrary halfway across the access road. SO the steel hangar is going to burst into flames and continue burning and then if it collapses it wouldn't get anywhere near any buildings etc but the very apex of the hangar could, possibly fall less than 1m onto the edge of an access road....if the whole rear of the shed fell down. Small wonder that some people don't bother with getting Building Regulations approval
Anyway, really good price
