Things to Consider Before Planning a Garage Addition

If you are planning on adding an addition to your garage, here are some things to consider. First and foremost, research the laws of zoning in your area. This process will eliminate issues arising later. Next thing to consider is having an attached or not attached garage. Consider if you are interested in a one or two car garage.
