Over the last 30 years, the company has expanded both its structural steel and pre-engineered metal building (PEMB) divisions, as well as added services in seismic retrofitting, building renovation, and more.

Led by Chuck’s philosophy of encouraging professional growth and treating people well, CHG Building Systems has established itself as one of the most skilled and versatile contractors in the Pacific Northwest. Our team is committed to delivering high-quality work that is both strategic and innovative.
