For a number of years we’ve been providing customers with a range of farm buildings, from those which are suitable for cattle through to those which are suitable to store farm machinery and harvested crops. Throughout our experience within the industry, we’ve gained an enviable reputation for constructing buildings which not only meet and exceed our customers’ needs and requirements, but which are also safe and secure.

Our team are capable of designing and constructing farm buildings on site; and when working on both the design and construction of your farm building, we’ll ensure that all work is done so in accordance to the British Standards 55950 and 55502, which ensure that the final product meets specific needs and criteria. This gives you peace of mind that every area of the build is structurally secure.

Along with working within the guidelines set out by the British Standards; if part of the build requires steel wall cladding to be installed, our team will ensure that it meets the current Part L2 Building Regulation requirements; making sure that every part of your new build, from top to bottom remains in accordance with current construction standards.

If you’d like more information surrounding the safety considerations for farm buildings or if you’d like a quote for our services, please contact our helpful, friendly and professional team by calling one of the numbers at the top of our website or by using our online enquiry form.

Through our experience within the industry, we’ve seen steel farm buildings increase in popularity – and for good reason.

Firstly, a steel construction is easy and quick to install, as there’s no need for various materials to arrive on site before the construction can work. To help ease the pressure of erecting a new building, here at JRC we can provide every aspect of the design, planning and construction of the site.

Furthermore, along with being quick and easy to construct, steel farm buildings offer a hygienic solution in which to keep livestock, as they can be easily washed down using a pressure jet. Therefore if you’re building one for your livestock to be sheltered in during the winter months, you can rest assured that during the winter months, your livestock will be safe in a clean, low maintenance shelter.

Along with providing quality steel structures here at JRC we can provide gates, doors and feed barriers to be fitted within the structure – and we’ll make them to meet your specifications, to ensure that the farm buildings you’re provided with supply you and your farm with everything you require. If you want to improve the quality of your farm’s buildings, then give us a call.
