It was early winter 2008 when my carpenter started on our garage so there were a few weather days that broke up the work. I'd guess total it took them 6 days. 3 days had it framed, sheeted, shingles down, and siding on. The other 3 days was insulation, overhead doors, lining interior, and misc work to wrap it up.

Here's a couple pics of it. There was 3900sqft of exterior flat work included in my number that was poured in the spring.




Here's a couple recent interior shots.



In hindsight I wish I went with a taller side wall and vaulted ceiling. (and double the size) When we first planned the garage we didn't have major car projects in our heads. It was more for storage...
