How Much Does it Cost to Build a Garage Plan – The Garage Plan Shop

Garage Plan 007G-0006Before a customer makes a final decision on the right garage plan or purchases blueprints, we are often asked how much it will cost to build a particular garage design. The experts at The Garage Plan Shop understand this is an important factor in making a final decision, as customers want to be sure they can afford to build the design. However, we know the costs for materials and labor vary greatly from one state to the next and sometimes even within the same city, making it impossible for us to provide an estimate for one of our garages in any specified location. We can’t possibly know all the going rates for materials and labor all across the US and Canada.

So, how can you get an estimated cost to build a particular garage plan? We recommend checking with a few local builders or lumberyards. These professionals deal with construction and materials costs on a daily basis. They also know the going rates for materials such as steel, concrete and Concrete wire mesh, and also the labor rates in your particular area. Just ask for an estimated cost to build. If you want a shingle roof installation on your garage, local builders can give an estimate for that project. You may also consider metal building kits for your garage construction. Often, these professionals will quote a dollar amount per square foot. Be sure to ask what this quote includes as sometimes it will not include foundation materials and a few other things. Checking locally is the best way to get an estimated cost to build for any of our garage plans.
