The cost of a steel shed in Ireland depends on the size, type of cladding, and whether it's a flat pack kit or a fully custom build. As a general guide, agricultural steel sheds typically start from €5,000–€20,000 for smaller structures, with larger industrial or commercial builds costing significantly more.

In Ireland, agricultural buildings such as farm sheds are generally exempt from planning permission under certain conditions, including size limits and set distances from roads and boundaries. However, commercial and industrial steel buildings typically do require planning permission. We always recommend checking with your local county council before starting any build.

Steel cladding is a single-skin metal sheeting used primarily for agricultural and industrial buildings where insulation isn't required. Insulated panels consist of two steel skins bonded to a rigid foam core, providing thermal insulation, ideal for commercial buildings, cold stores, or any structure where temperature control is important. Sullivan Steel supplies and installs both options across Ireland.

A flat pack kit shed comes pre-engineered and delivered to site ready for assembly — it's a cost-effective option for standard sizes and straightforward builds. A custom steel shed is designed and fabricated to your exact specifications, giving you full flexibility on size, layout, cladding and finish. Sullivan Steel erects both types across Ireland — we'll advise which is best suited to your project and budget.

Yes, re-roofing and re-cladding existing farm buildings is one of our most common jobs. Whether your existing roof is leaking, corroded or simply past its best, we can strip and replace the sheeting with new steel roofing or cladding, often without the need for significant structural work. We carry out agricultural roof replacements and re-sheeting on farm buildings across Ireland.

Steel roofs in Ireland require relatively little maintenance but benefit from an annual inspection to check for loose fixings, damaged sheets, blocked gutters and any signs of corrosion. Repairing minor issues early prevents costly damage down the line. Sullivan Steel carries out steel roof inspections, repairs and full re-sheeting on agricultural and commercial buildings across Ireland.
