Premier supplier of custom steel buildings, prefabricated kit buildings and residential metal roofing. Proudly serving our customers for over 90 years.
As a steel erection company with over 20 years of experience, I can only brag on my friends at Kaufman Mueller. I have been using Mueller steel for 17 years and I have forged a working relationship that surpasses any and all previous metal suppliers. The quality of material is second to none and when there is an inevitable problem the salesmen and branch managers will do whatever to make it right. Mueller has slowly grown from its roots into a large competitor in the steel world but they have kept the family atmosphere and spirit alive. I’ve been blessed to develop lifetime friendships and working relationships that aids in bringing the best product forward for my customers.
Kaufman Mueller is led by an outstanding branch manger, Vincent Guerrero, and has two salesman that are unrivaled by most. Clint Weaks and Lyle Penny are knowledgeable and willing to help. The warehouse staff is courteous and polite and eager to get you the right material loaded the first time. Johnny is one of the most down to earth and courteous people you will ever meet.
The store is clean and inviting and filled with samples of material for you to lay your eyes on, instead of looking online and wondering if that is the true color of the material. A lot of material is stocked on site and complete building systems can be delivered in weeks.
We’ve ordered everything from bardominiums to airplane hangers and school gyms. All with out a hitch. Most buildings can be computed onsite by the salesman and for the complex projects like airplane hangers and school gyms, Mueller has an excellent complex project division that is equally as easy to work with.
Look no further for a trusted company with fair pricing and quality products and salespeople.

Yes we do! At Mueller, we manufacture all prefabricated buildings we sell. Our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities and in-house engineering provide greater quality control along with the assurance we will be here for future needs.
How are your buildings assembled?
Mueller prefabricated buildings are bolt-together structures. Holes are punched and bolts are used to erect the framework allowing for ease of construction which will equate to time and money savings.
Why is it important to check my local building codes?
Most counties and city governments have codes and specifications governing construction in their areas. It is important to understand local requirements to be able to obtain proper permits for construction of your Mueller building.
How can I get a quote on a building?
You have a couple of options. The Toolbox page on our website lets you design a building online and or quote a building online. We will email a quote along with a drawing of the building you designed. Another option is to contact one of our sales representatives at a Mueller location nearest you. They will assist in providing a solution that meets your particular needs from design through delivery.
Is it true that metal roofs attract lightning during a storm?
No, lightning generally strikes the tallest object and may strike any object - not exclusively metal. An advantage is that metal roofs won't burn if struck because they are non-combustible.
Are metal roofs noisy in rainstorms?
Installed properly above an insulated attic, metal roofing makes no more noise than a traditional composition roof.
Why should I choose a metal roof for my home?
Metal roofing is much more durable than other types of roofing materials, with a very long life expectancy. Metal roofs are also low maintenance, energy efficient and available in many designer colors.
Does Mueller sell directly to homeowners?
Absolutely. We welcome every homeowner to visit Mueller so we can work directly with you to design and manufacture your very own metal roof.
Is a metal roof more energy efficient than an asphalt shingle roof?
Yes: Metal roofing offers three primary ways in which it keeps homes cooler and reduces air conditioning costs often by 20% or more. First, light colored metal roofs and some metal roofs with special pigments in dark colors reflect radiant heat. Second, metal roofs lose any gained heat very quickly to the sky when the sun sets or goes behind a cloud or even when a slight breeze blows. Other roofing materials capture and retain the sun’s heat. Third, metal roof panels have an integral airspace between the metal and the roof deck in the way of ribs. This airspace acts as a thermal break, stopping conductive heat transfer. Common terms used in relation to metal roofing are:
Emissivity - Metal roofs can be painted to achieve noteworthy emissivity ratings as high as 90%. Emissivity is a term used to describe the heat that is radiated - or emitted - from a surface. For example the asphalt on your street has low emissivity - and high heat transference - which is why it is virtually impossible to walk on it barefoot on a hot summer day. The sun's heat is absorbed into the asphalt and then transferred to the surrounding environment. On the other hand, properly treated metal roofing has low emissivity and high reflectivity, which keeps buildings significantly cooler in warmer weather, noticeably reducing overall cooling loads.
Reflectivity - In addition to low emissivity, cool metal roofs are also highly reflective. This means that radiant heat from the sun is reflected directly back into the atmosphere. When you consider that 40% or more of the nation's energy is spent on heating and cooling costs, this becomes a significant source of energy savings.
What are the benefits of metal roofing?
Compared to traditional roofing, Mueller metal roofs come out on top.
Beauty - With Mueller roofs, you can choose from a wide variety of attractive designer colors.
Durability - Metal roofs last much longer than both composition roofs and wooden shingles.
Weather Resistance - Mueller roofs offer superior protection from wind, hail and fire.
Longevity - Mueller offers limited paint warranties up to 30 years. Your roof will look fresh and vibrant for decades.
Energy Efficiency - Because of their high-tech coatings, Mueller roofs may help lower your air conditioning and heating bills.
Insurance Savings - Insurance companies may offer discounts up to 35% for homes with Mueller metal roofs. Check with your insurance agent.
Low Maintenance - Install your metal roof and then forget about it.
Environmentally Friendly - The recycled content of steel in metal roofing is much higher than the recycled content in asphalt shingles. Plus, because a metal roof weighs less than shingles, it can often be installed directly over your existing roof, saving the environmental as well as financial costs associated with removal and disposal.
