Budget estimate

$750,000 – $1,000,000

Based on typical construction costs for pre‑engineered metal structures in Kentucky (approximately $150‑$200 per square foot for a fully finished building), a 5,000 SF facility would likely range from $750,000 to $1,000,000. This estimate accounts for the building shell, interior finishes, mechanical/electrical systems, site work (paving, slab, utilities), and contingency. Final contract value could vary with material price fluctuations, design changes, or additional scope.
