The cost of new construction depends on the quality of materials, the size of the building and the wages of designers and laborers. An average garage can be built for around $40 to $60 per square foot, with an apartment adding anywhere from 20 to 40 percent to that cost. A 20-by-20-foot garage totalling 400 square feet would cost between $16,000 and $24,000 without an apartment, and anywhere from $20,000 to $35,000 with an apartment. Homeowners who are skilled at construction and can do some or all of the work themselves can cut an enormous amount off of those numbers.
According to CostHelper, contractors usually charge $35 to $45 per square foot for a basic garage, and up to $55 per square foot for a garage built with higher quality materials. For a basic single-car garage, that comes to between $9,240 and $11,880. A higher-end, single-car structure might cost as much as $14,520.ccording to Garaga, a single garage should be at least 12 feet wide by 22 feet long (264 square feet), and a double garage should be 18 feet wide by 22 feet long (396 square feet). Building bigger can bring the price up. Costhelper says an 850-square-foot garage with plenty of storage space could cost $38,000 or more.
