We offer a wide variety of options to give your building your own personal touch.

Perma-Column Posts
New and exclusive to Integrity in Canada, we are now offering the Perma-Column for post frame. Perma-Columns are precast concrete columns that allow for a concrete foundation on your post frame building. These five foot precast concrete columns keep wood out of the ground, ensuring your building’s foundation will last. They are the first product to combine the economy of post frame construction with the durability of a concrete foundation.

Siding

Integrity offers two attractive options for siding: metal or James Hardie siding.

Metal Siding

At Integrity, we use a superior large 3/4” rib metal that comes with the best 40–year paint warranty to ensure we’re doing the most we can do to prevent fading. The metal used in all Integrity buildings is attractive, strong and has a long lifespan.

When shopping for a post frame building, be aware that all metal is not the same. Many companies offer only the 20–30 year paint warranty on their metal. This metal has a smaller rib, a shorter lifespan and fades faster than the superior larger rib metal.

Features of metal used in Integrity buildings:

  • Superior 3/4” rib metal
  • Available in a wide variety of colours
  • Manufacturer’s warranty for 40 years on coloured metal walls and roof

James Hardie Siding

Integrity offers James Hardie siding as an additional attractive option for acreage buildings, barns or commercial buildings. Made of fibre cement, James Hardie siding products are more durable than vinyl or wood/wood composite, siding but have the look and warmth of real wood without the maintenance hassles.

Highlights of James Hardie siding:

  • ColorPlus® technology offer a revolutionary finish — paint invented exclusively for James Hardie siding that’s factory–applied and baked–on to maximize durability, fade resistance and adhesion.
  • The variance of the ColorPlus technology finish is more strictly controlled than even the automotive industry and lasts up to two times longer than traditional paint. *
  • Warranty: James Hardie backs its siding products and finish with some of the building industry’s most comprehensive warranties — up to a 50-year limited transferable product warranty, as well as a 15-year finish warranty covering both paint and labour.
  • Available in a number of colour options
  • Find out more about James Hardie siding.

*James Hardie accelerated QUV test results compared to nationally available premium paint in a lab environment.
