Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to build a garage?

Building a new garage costs $25,000-60,000 for an attached two-car garage and $30,000-80,000 for detached. Costs range from $35-100 per square foot depending on size, finishes, and whether living space is included.

Do I need a permit to build a garage?

Yes, virtually all garage construction requires building permits. You will need plans, structural engineering for large garages, and inspections at foundation, framing, and final stages.

How long does it take to build a garage?

A typical two-car garage takes 4-8 weeks to build after permits are approved. The permit process can add 2-6 weeks. Detached garages may take slightly longer due to separate utility connections.
