I hired New Vision Construction to fix my garage door. I’m extremely happy with the results. I have had zero issues with it.
Garage construction
Detached, attached, and the one with a room above it.
Garage construction in Fort Wayne, from a single detached garage to an attached build with living space above. A garage is a small building with all the same parts as a house, which is why the slab, the header and the roof tie-in are where the money sits.
- Detached single, double and oversized garages
- Attached garages and additions
- Living or storage space above
- Slab, footings and frost depth
- Siding and roof matched to the house
- Power, lighting and door openers coordinated
Three things to settle first
The decisions that set the price.
Most garage quotes differ because these three were assumed differently, not because one builder is cheaper.
Slab or footings
A slab-on-grade garage and a garage on frost footings are different buildings at different prices. What you need depends on what goes above and what the ground is like.
Door size and header
Wider doors need bigger headers and change the framing above. Deciding door width late is an expensive change.
Matching the house
Siding, roof pitch and trim matched to the existing house is what makes a detached garage look intentional. It is also the part cheap quotes leave out.
How it runs
Build sequence.
Four stages on a typical garage.
Site and permit
Setbacks checked, permit pulled, site marked and prepared.
Concrete
Footings or slab poured to the right depth for what is going on top.
Framing and roof
Walls, header, trusses and sheathing, then roofed and dried in.
Siding, doors and finish
Siding and trim matched to the house, doors and openers set, electrical coordinated, site cleared.

Tell us what has to fit in it.
Two cars, a workshop, a boat. That answer sets the size, and the size sets the price.
