Bumping this as its now time to close this in. Got a handful of quotes ranging from $4k to $9k to frame and finish it without garage doors. Got one guy (again recommended by same GC friend) that would do it all for $5k + materials which I would buy. That would include custom carriage...

No because I don't have any room on my property to build a 2 car garage. I have another parking spot up at the top in front of the house but I wouldn't do anything there other than maybe one of those shade sails to keep the tree **** of my girlfriends car.

Yeah hired it out and helped the guys here and there with the drains and getting rid of the dirt...total was $4k. Which is crazy because like I said prior the quotes from people I didn't know were all over the place. Cheapest was $3k but the guy didn't know how to install drains all the way up...

New here, have a new house with a 2 space car port underneath a patio that I am looking to turn into a garage. Having never done this before I have some questions that I hope I can get answers on. Before: After: Things I need to do: Grade Slab Frame Garage Doors Consensus is I...
