6 Factors that Determine the Cost to Build a Garage

Every project has its own specific set of needs but these 6 factors that determine your cost will always remain the same.

Building a garage using prefabricated kits is the easiest way to add garage buildings to your property. With easy to follow instructions included in each prefab garage kit, you can save thousands on construction crew, material and equipment costs by doing it yourself.

The cost to build a garage can fluctuate greatly because of these factors. Its extremely important to take a closer look at all the advantages of building your own garage building in order to remain assured that your vehicles have the proper home.

We are always committed to providing the toughest garage kits at the most competitive prices.

 Here are some of the most common factors that determine the price of your building:

1. Building Use

The very first thing we need to know before quoting a project is about the building’s use. Looking for a safe place to protect vehicles from the environment or do you plan to work inside of the garage also? Will garage storage be the only purpose or will it be a multi-purpose building?

Whether its a garage specifically used for vehicle storage, a multi-purpose workspace garage, or if an extra space to store tools is needed, the price can vary drastically. Make sure to know the exact use of your building before getting a quote, this allows the engineers to design the perfect garage kit for your exact needs and will save you loads on unnecessary costs. 

2. Size

After determining the exact use of your garage, we will need to know the dimension of the building and building site.

Once you decide the size you need for your building and garage door size, we will then calculate the price of the structure and accessory options based on the width and length.

After you have chosen  the length and width of your prefab garage, the dimensions cannot be changed, but the building can be added on in the future with a Lean-To frame building.

3. Location

The price of your prefab garage can vary depending on your location.

The environment in which your garage will be assembled is a major factor when acquiring a price.

Each location requires your garage to meet the local regulations and have specific codes that must be followed in order to acquire approval before you can even start to build.

4. Construction Crew/Contractors

The price of hiring an expensive construction crew often outweighs the initial investment for a garage building. For most prefab garage projects, you won’t need expensive construction crews or contractors, our easy-to-follow instructions make the whole process a breeze.

Our garage buildings are perfect for the do it yourselfer and depending on size, can be completed in under a week. Over 70% of all prefab garage building owners construct their own buildings. You are in the driver’s seat of your own project, and all it takes is just a little effort and a few friends to have your garage ready for business.

 5. Building Components

What does your dream garage look like? This answer can vary greatly from person to person and choosing the right style of building and depending on design, the price of your building can vary depending on your personal design and accessory options. Selecting the perfect building components for your project is essential to its success.

Looking for windows on each end wall or a skylight to create a brighter space? Are you in need of ventilation turbine vents that circulate air throughout the garage? Do you need to have large roll up doors to allow for frequent travel of large vehicles. From sliding doors to insulation, the possibilities are endless. Choose from a large variety of style and accessory options to build the perfect garage building.

Adding additional parts to a garage kit can alter the cost to build a garage, but our team will always work within your budget.

6. Maintenance and Building Time

The time it takes to complete and maintain the project should be taken into account. Every structure has a lifespan and without routine maintenance, older buildings don’t last long. A traditional building takes much longer to complete than our prefab garage kits and requires more maintenance. 

We understand that your time is precious and should not be wasted. We make our prefab garages extremely easy to construct, allowing you to spend less time building and more time enjoying your indoor space.

With just a small team or a few extra hands, you can have your garage completed in a matter of days. Without the need of a large crew, our buildings assemble with ease saving you thousands.
