A new member of the family has just been given birth, to your house you mean. This is an occasion which only comes once in two, three years. Congratulations! However, now that you have someone new to take care of, the fun doesn’t stop there. The most important thing is to keep the little critter safe and secure, and for that you need a secured place for her. You need a car garage or a separate room where she can play.
3 car garage cost to build
The average cost to build a garage is $25,000 and can vary depending on the size, location and type of garage.
The average cost to build a garage will vary based on several factors, including whether you hire a contractor or do it yourself.
A new garage is an investment in your home’s future. A professional garage builder will be able to help you design your new space so that it meets all of your needs and matches the look of your house.
Here are some tips for determining how much it will cost to build a garage:
- Determine the size of your new garage. Garage sizes typically range from 10 feet by 20 feet to about 15 feet by 40 feet. The larger your garage, the more money you will spend on materials and labor costs.
- Decide if you want to add living quarters onto your new garage. If so, this will add significantly more expense to building a new structure onto your home’s property. The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) reports that adding living quarters onto an existing detached structure costs an average of $80 per square foot (PSF).
The cost of building a garage depends on the size, design and features.
The average cost of a new garage is $15-$20 per square foot. The cost varies depending on the size of your garage, whether it is attached to your house or separate and other factors like location.
The average size of garages in the United States is 12 x 20 feet or 240 square feet. If you build a garage with this size and it has no living quarters then the cost would be around $3,600 to $4,800 for materials alone which does not include labor costs.
If you want to save money, instead of hiring a contractor to build your garage for you, consider doing it yourself using plans from books or websites that provide instructions for building a garage yourself for free.
