We contacted Walters last Aug by email. Within 48 hours Scott had contacted us. He came out and went over our needs and within a week he had sent us a proposal. He modified it prior to building and was very responsive. The crew who built our building were very efficient and professional. They answered all my questions and made sure that windows and doors were placed where we wanted them. The only concern I had was the materials were delivered over a month in advance of build date which due to weather was delayed.

Our property is not occupied so theft was a slight concern of mine. Scott came out and covered the lumber to keep snow off it and thankfully nothing was taken. Overall, a very positive experience and our new building is great!

I initially contacted them in early August of 2021 and had to wait 3 weeks for a response because Bill Hamm was on vacation(Why wouldn't someone else be covering his region for that timeframe?). Anyways, Bill Hamm finally came out to look at the site for our outbuilding on Sept. 2, 2021. Since then there has been zero communication(must be on vacation again?). I emailed him again on Oct. 11, 2021 and have gotten no response. If the communication is this bad in the infancy of planning our outbuilding I can't imagine what it would be like when we are under contract. No thanks. Don't waste your time with these guys.

This morning I delivered 13 skids with no issues at all. My delivery was completely unloaded and signed for within 15 minutes of my initial arrival time. Very prompt & courteous service.

The workflow is organized to be no faster and no slower than the current rate. If you plan on working here without experience, it'll be a few years before you gain some meaningful experience here. Lots of older folks who are the only ones who know how to operate machines and I dont know what's going to happen when they retire, as they don't like training people. The management is all people who don't know how things work and only pretend, and don't listen to workers about how things ARE. I spent more time with a broom in hand for 3-4 months than actually being productive. There's no communication/ organization.

I dealt with Jarrod Duel, who was my sales person. Very professional and in tune to the business. Very impressed with Jarrod. Felt I received a fair price and service was excellent. Received a total of 5 bids from different vendors (Buildings) and selected Walter's. Walter's wasn't the least expensive nor the most expensive. Felt their quality was worth me spending a little more as one of the bids were just a little less. Scott & Travis were at my property the entire time and did an excellent job of constructing my 36 Ft x 30 Ft garage. Was extremely pleased. I would recommend Walter's Buildings and especially Jarrod Duel.
