I would of liked to see the inside as well...it looked short or not very deep. I wonder what you did with the old garage face? Is it now a double door tandem garage? Did you remove and de-construct the old garage face & front corners? Did you reinforce and blend it onto the new side walls? I would like to do this to my existing single car garage. I would want to remove the entire front face of the old garage, join and blend the side walls together and re-use the garage door and opener on the front face of the new addition. Why didn't you do that?
No, I did not remove the wall because the laundry room behind it. Keep in mind it was a garage and a half with a 2 car addition on the front. The city would only allow 14' deep garage, but my car is only 13', so it works for me. I still have the old garage door installed and operational, extra security I guess. It was cheaper to buy a new garage door than reuse the old one and plus they were different sizes.
The garage was full, I have 3 cars and a large truck. I have now added a second addition to the garage, so I'm able to put all 4 cars inside. Thanks for your comment.
We have a 3 car garage with the smaller 9' door as the 3rd stall it's set back about 3' from the 16' door. I'd like to extend it so I can store my boat in there. Our front is a gable end that's bricked. Would an extension even be possible ?
How did u manage to get permit from zoning? My zoning is saying front extension is fare with other property because it would not be in same line even though from street to home is 70 foot distance.
We want to extend our attached single car into a tandem garage. I see you were able to keep some of the actual driveway, and concrete the rest? how was this possible? Thank you.
Not sure what you mean, but I just had them extend the width of the driveway to add the 2 car garage in front of the existing 1 1/2 garage. Hope that helps.
@UGMProductions - You said "The city would only allow 14' deep garage, but my car is only 13' ". So how long are your trucks? I doubt you can park your trucks in the garage.
I'm watching this, and it's cool, but all I can focus on is that I'm listening to a "smooth jazz" version of "Take 5" in 4/4 time. Sacrilege. Sheer Sacrilege.
So the old concrete slab had to be removed because it was not leveled to the garage floor? Did you Get your hoa approval quickly? How much did it cost?
You will thank your HOA when it comes time to sell. Also, please keep your trash can in back where folks don't have to look at it all week. Sorry - it's a pet peeve of mine. People think their trash cans are trophies, displayed for all to see. Good job on the concrete work. Love doing concrete.
13k for that terrible job! I know the concrete must have been expensive cuz sure it can't be the garage. I mean who puts up a garage in front of a garage? without demolishing the walls or the other garage before building the other one up.
I’m surprised they parked trucks on the concrete that soon. I’ve heard a lot of concrete guys say wait a week, longer if possible before putting vehicle traffic on new slabs. Hope yours wasn’t effected by being driven on too soon.
so they basically built a garage for their hoarding tendencies?. no cars being parked in it? also who the hell would have the handle mounted on the side of a big ass door like that and not centered!!!? looks like garbage if you ask me
