Metal buildings in Decatur, Texas
Rolled and built in Azle, 29 miles away.
Decatur is the Wise County seat and a real industrial town, not just a bedroom community — which changes what gets built here. 402 building permits were issued across Wise County in 2025, and the county supports about 20,000 jobs across 1,600 employers.
26ga panel, $3.48/lin ft,
18 colors on the rack
Type your run and see the number. These are the published prices this site charges, not a range we quote against later.
Panel only — no trim, screws, closures or framing, and no tax. Each panel covers 3 ft of wall or roof, so a 30 ft wall takes 10 of them plus the overlap you plan for. Published prices are delivered prices with freight already inside them, so loading out at the yard in Azle costs less than this figure. Cut-to-length is rolled after you order, not pulled off a rack — call (817) 886-8172 before you drive out from Decatur.
29 miles, about 50 minutes
FM 730 north through Azle and Boyd, then US 81/287 into town. That is the whole trip. Come make it — the yard is open to the public Monday through Saturday, and looking at a panel profile in daylight beats looking at a swatch on a phone.

Who permits a building
in Decatur
Most pages on this subject were written by a company in another state. Here is what we can stand behind, and where we will tell you to pick up the phone rather than guess.
Permits go through Building division, Development Services. We have not published a threshold or a process for Decatur because we have not confirmed one, and a wrong permit answer costs you more than a slow one.
Building division, Development Services · official page
We are not going to tell you Wise County does or does not require a building permit out here, because we have not confirmed it in writing and at least one competing page gets this exact question wrong. Call the county before you order, or call us at (817) 886-8172 and we will walk through it with you.
Confirmed as required regardless of any building permit:
- Septic / OSSF permit through Wise County Environmental Services
Not legal advice, and rules change. Confirm with the office before you pour concrete — or let us handle it, because permits are part of a dirt-to-finish contract.

Buildings quoted in 24 business hours.
A building price moves with span, height, door openings and what the dirt looks like, so we put a real number on it in 24 business hours rather than publishing a figure that turns out not to apply to your lot. Tell us the dimensions you are thinking and we will price it.

Yes. Panels, trim, doors, windows, fasteners and anchors are sold over the counter, and we will drop a labeled kit on your slab if you would rather set it yourself. Same steel either way.
