There’s a difference between “we can do it” and “we’ve done this before.” Metal building erection isn’t just about bolting steel together. It’s having the right equipment, certifications, and experience, and most importantly the safety culture.
We own telehandlers, man baskets, boom lifts, and welding equipment ready for steel work.
Certified on the equipment we run so lifts and picks are handled correctly.
We read pre-engineered metal building plans and catch gaps before they become delays.
We set pick points and sling angles so steel stays level and controlled in the air.
Steel has to go up in the right order. We plan the sequence so the job moves smoothly.
A dropped beam can be fatal. We follow a tight process to keep crews safe.
You’ve got a complex project. You need a team that knows steel, knows safety, and knows how to deliver. Let’s talk about what you’re building.
We work with general contractors, developers, and business owners on pre-engineered metal buildings and structural steel erection. If your project is 25,000+ sq. ft. and needs a steel erection crew with the right equipment and plan-reading experience, we’re a fit.
It’s not always straightforward. Sometimes the plans do not match reality on site. Sometimes the architect has never designed with this material before and does not understand some of the constraints.
We have enough experience to anticipate those issues ahead of time. We read the plans carefully, ask in-depth questions early, and lead the process instead of reacting to problems in the air. We problem solve, collaborate, and communicate so you can trust the job gets done right, even when unexpected variables come up.













“We’ve worked with J&B Contracting as a general contractor on multiple commercial and high-end residential projects in the Billings area, and they consistently stand out as one of the best subcontractors I partner with. From day one, their communication is exceptional—they provide clear, timely updates on progress, timelines, and any potential issues, making coordination seamless and keeping the overall project on track without surprises.
The crew is hardworking, highly knowledgeable, and professional. They maintain a clean, organized job site every single day, which respects the property, other trades, and safety standards. Most importantly, their workmanship is top-tier. Quality materials and attention to detail mean no callbacks or rework—everything is done right the first time, saving time and headaches for everyone involved.
