    Garage Build in the Swiss Alps

    Flyin9's 28x40

    One side will be parking my daily driver and the other side will eventually have a 2 post lift for projects, maintenance, and playing with race cars. I actually just got a quote for a 18X9 front garage door and it wasn't too bad so I'm going to go with a wider door and 2' higher side walls. I'm...

    New Build 1200sqft or less

    Hey SDO, Small world! I am going through the same red tape as well. I live in Baxter. I wish you luck on your hearing and hope all goes in your favor.

    New Build 1200sqft or less

    Here is what I am leaning toward, 28X42 (we have a couple of mega cab dodge trucks in the family that are 20' and some change.) I feel like the extra 2' depth is more important to me than the 2' in width to an extent. If allowed (by the city I live in)I want to do 14' ceiling height with a...
