A detached, 2-car garage is one of the most valuable additions you can make to your property. Whether you plan on using it for parking, storage, projects, or a combination of those options, you’ll love having this space available.

Of course, you probably don’t need to be convinced of the usefulness of a new garage – but you might be wondering just how much it will cost to make this project happen. So today, we’ll look at those associated costs so you can make an informed decision on how to proceed.

How Much Does a Detached 2-Car Garage Cost?

The range of possible prices for a detached two-car garage covers a vast spread. For example, you might secure a new building for just a couple thousand dollars, while it’s also possible for the price to rise to $10,000 and beyond. But, of course, it all depends on various factors like the building materials used, the exact size of the garage, and where it will be constructed.

Rather than looking at price averages, which isn’t very helpful regarding how much your new garage will cost, getting a quote for the project you have in mind is more effective. That’s why we make it so easy at American Steel Carports, Inc. to request a quote on our products. You can assemble a design with our Build & Price tool and then request a quote on your creation. That way, there will be no guesswork or wondering if the averages apply to you – instead, you’ll have a quote in hand, and you can decide how to proceed. Of course, expert assembly and delivery are always included in your purchase.

Custom Features Impact Price

As you would imagine, custom features in your new garage will drive the price higher, but it might be worth it to get exactly what you need. For example, if you want to upgrade to 12-gauge framing and vertical siding, the price will rise somewhat – but perhaps not as much as expected. But, again, getting a quote on the specific configuration that you had in mind is your best bet.

Other features you might want to invest in include windows or an additional door. It’s far better to ensure the first garage you order will work for your needs over the coming years vs. buying a garage you must modify later—or worse, spending more money to order a new building because the first one just isn’t getting the job done anymore.

The Metal Advantage

If you consider different options for your garage project, you’ll quickly find that building a metal structure is far more affordable than going with wood. While wood has been the traditional choice for generations, it is quickly being replaced by metal thanks to two primary advantages.

First, the materials needed to build a metal garage are more affordable, so you start with a lower initial price. Then, the savings are compounded because a metal garage is far easier to construct, meaning you’ll need to use fewer labor hours to put it into place. That means you’ll be using more affordable materials and spending less on labor, so everything adds to impressive savings that a wood structure can’t match.

As if that wasn’t enough, there is also the durability of metal to consider. Your metal garage will demand very little maintenance and can be expected to remain strong and steady for a long time. In fact, you could probably get away with doing no maintenance at all, but even just washing the garage down once in a while will keep it looking great.
