Plan Your New Garage Design and Garage Building Size
Local Building Regulations Regulate Your Decisions
When building a new garage or adding on a garage addition, it is important to begin by consulting your local planning department for information about building permits, zoning regulations and set back requirements. Set back requirements regulate how close You Can build to the road as well as bordering property. If you do not comply with these building regulations and obtain proper building permits where necessary, you may have to tear down the new building or relocate the garage. It sure costs less to do the work right the first time! To build your garage you will need building plans or construction plans and a plot plan, which indicates the garage building location on your land.
Building Inspectors Offer Great Advise Your local building inspector may be your best resource for free advise when planning the construction of a new garage. It is a good idea to consult with your local city building inspector before you start your new project. This may make all the difference in developing a great relationship for future projects. Their building inspectors advice is free, and they can help ensure your garage project is up to code.
Plan Your New Garage on Graph Paper

What Size Garage Should I Build?
What size should you build your new garage building? A single car garage should be at least 12' wide by 22' deep. The minimum width for a 2 car garage building should be 20 feet, but you will need additional room if you're planning on putting in a workbench or if you'll need to store your kids bicycles, lawn mowers, tools or your work shop equipment. A 22'X24' wide garage is a more optimal garage size. Whatever size you choose to build, 2009 pricing for a new garage has a cost from $26 - $38 dollars per square foot. If you own a Pickup Truck and a sport utility vehicle (SUV), your garage needs to be at least 22'x22' feet. Your ceiling height should be at least 8 feet high.
