Absolutely thrilled with our new portable barn! The quality is outstanding and the delivery team was professional and on time. Built solid and looks amazing on our property.

We got a lofted garage from Cardinal Buildings and couldn’t be happier. It’s strong, spacious, and exactly what we needed for our tools and ATV. Highly recommend!

I was blown away by the craftsmanship. We ordered a Victorian-style shed and it looks like something out of a magazine. It completely upgraded our backyard.”

Excellent experience from start to finish. The customer service was great, they helped me choose the right style, and my cabin was delivered ahead of schedule.
