One, two or three car garages
A garage sized for your cars, storage and the driveway your lot allows.
Detached garage plans
Detached garage plans, drawn for your lot.
A detached garage goes through the same permit review as any new building: where it sits on your lot, its foundation and how it stands up to Florida wind. We draw the whole set in Revit for your lot, with a fixed price from $2,950.
What we draw
Garages that stand apart from the house.
New construction only, drawn to the same standard as a full home.
Garage with a workshop
Room for a bench, tools or a hobby next to the cars, with the windows and doors you need.
Garage with living space above
An apartment, guest room or office over the garage, where your local zoning allows it.

Your quote lists the exact sheets your county needs for your design before we start.
- Site plan from your boundary survey: where the garage sits, the distances to your lot lines and the driveway
- Floor plan, elevations, sections and roof plan
- Foundation and framing designed for the wind speed at your lot
- Door and window sizes with their openings and details
- Revit model and CAD files
- Engineering review and seals
Before you start
Four things that shape a detached garage.
Setbacks and lot coverage
Your city or county zoning code says how close the garage can sit to each lot line and how much of the lot buildings can cover. Your boundary survey shows what is already there.
Wind
Florida's design wind speeds start at 115 mph, and the code requires wind design across the state. The garage door is usually the biggest opening, so it gets its own rated product.
Flood zone
If your lot is in a flood zone, the garage has to meet the flood rules too. The site plan shows the zone and the design flood elevation.
Living space above
A bathroom, kitchen or bedroom over the garage can make your city or county treat it as an accessory dwelling unit, with its own rules for size, parking and use.
Questions
Detached garage questions.
How much do detached garage plans cost?
Detached garages, guest houses and studios start at $2,950. The final fixed price depends on the size and the level of customization, and you get it in writing before we start. Survey, soil report and permit fees are not included.
Do you draw a garage attached to my existing house?
No. A garage that connects to an existing home is an addition, and we only draw new homes and detached structures. A garage that is part of a new home we draw is included in that home's plans.
Can I put an apartment above my garage?
Often, yes, where your local zoning allows it. Tell us your city and county and what you want upstairs, and we design the garage and the living space to those rules.
What do you need from me?
Your city and county, the size and use of the garage, and a current boundary survey of your lot. Photos of the lot and a sketch or a garage you like help too.
