If your home has adequate space for a garage but you have not built one yet, consider purchasing a prefabricated garage. Prefabricated garages are fast becoming popular these days because you can have a garage in no time.
A ready-made garage has several advantages and disadvantages. Most agree that one of the benefits of a prefab garage is the lower cost of installing one.
Prefab garages vs. custom-built garages cost
The average cost of a personalized garage is $27,000, but it can cost $100,000 or more. A semi-custom garage, on the other hand, can cost up to $150,000 in kits and prefabricated elements.
A pre-built garage of the same size and kind costs around a quarter of the price.
Price of prefab garages
A prefab garage can cost anywhere from $2,000 to $150,000, but most are between $5,000 and $30,000, or around $15,000 on average. The foundation, delivery, and assembly are all not yet included. Garages that are completely pre-built range in price from $2,000 to $20,000.
For pre-built, delivery will cost between $4 and $10 per mile. The cost of a modular setup ranges from $2,000 to $30,000.
You will need to have it delivered and placed or built on a foundation in addition to the kit. The entire process necessitates a foundation pad, delivery, and, in some cases, the installation and connection of utilities.
Service of Installation Costs
Foundation
Total cost: $600 – $5,000
A garage slab foundation might cost anywhere between $1,500 and $5,000. While many kits and modules call for concrete, others simply call for gravel. Gravel garage foundations range in price from $600 to $900.
Delivery
Per mile, you’ll pay between $4 and $10.
$1.50 – $2 per mile for a pilot car
The majority of firms charge between $4 and $6 per mile. You may be charged up to $10 per mile for oversized vehicles. The first few miles, usually little more than 20 to 50, are usually free. Finding a prefabricated garage close to the house is usually more cost-effective. Some businesses deliver their goods, while kits frequently rely on third-party delivery services.
Permits
Total cost: $50 to $150
Depending on your state, oversized load permits might cost somewhere between $50 to $150. Large vehicles, on the other hand, frequently require the use of a highway escort service, which consists of cars that precede and follow heavy loads. The cost of a pilot vehicle service ranges from $1.50 to $2 per mile.
Electrical, plumbing, and air conditioning
From $1,000 to $2,500
Plumbing costs between $600 and $1,600 per fixture.
The cost of air conditioning varies.
