What is a Prefab Garage
Michalis 'BIG Mike' Kotzakolios


Defined Tag:

A Prefab garage is a garage whose parts are assembled elsewhere and brought to the building site. This is a less expensive and time consuming way to build a garage. In order to build a prefab garage, one should have some knowledge about home building as most garage contractors do not assemble the garage. Prepping the site where the garage will sit is also very important. It is recommended that a foundation be built in order to help the garage remain sturdy. A foundation will keep the garage from falling over the in the wind and will help to keep its shape.

Once the parts arrive and the foundation is dry, the garage can be assembled. Two or three people will be needed as some of the pieces can be very heavy. Everything needed to assemble the garage is included in the package. There are many different types of garages that people can choose from. While many people choose a standard garage design, some want to include a guestroom on top of the garage for family and friends that may visit. There are smaller garages and larger garages to choose from also.

Once the prefab garage has been constructed, one can choose to paint, stain, or leave the natural color. This will depend on what the homeowner wants. Most people will paint the prefab garage so that it matches their house. Others will put a clear coat stain on the sides to keep it from becoming weathered. Some garages have vinyl siding which means that the garage will have to be sprayed down once or twice a year to keep it clean. A prefab garage can last for many years and provide storage for cars and items that are not used often as well as guest housing for those who will need it.
