This week, we\u2019re thrilled to share a customer\u2019s inspiring story of building a garage using one of our detached garage plans. Their experience showcases the flexibility and quality of our plans, proving that with the right blueprint, anyone can create a functional and beautiful garage tailored to their needs.<br \/>\nOur featured customer chose one of our popular 20&#215;26 garage plans, a two-car garage design measuring 20 feet wide by 26 feet deep. This spacious layout includes a single door for convenient access and a 6\/12 pitch roof topped with durable asphalt shingles. The customer\u2019s build stands out because they customized the plan to make it uniquely theirs, demonstrating the adaptability of our garage plans.<br \/>\nOne notable modification was the addition of a roof eave overhang above the garage door, which wasn\u2019t part of the original detached garage plans. This thoughtful addition not only enhances the aesthetic appeal but also provides extra protection from the elements. The customer also opted to switch from manufactured trusses to stick framing with rafters, allowing for an open attic space under the garage roof. These changes highlight how our plans serve as a solid foundation while leaving room for personalization to suit specific preferences or site requirements.<br \/>\nThe garage was built on a robust poured concrete foundation stem wall with a poured footing, ensuring a sturdy and long-lasting structure. To create a cohesive look with their existing home, the customer chose vinyl siding that perfectly matches their house. The result? A seamless blend of functionality and style that elevates their property\u2019s curb appeal.<br \/>\nIn their own words, the customer shared, \u201cLast year, we purchased garage plans from iCreatables.com. I have attached a couple of pictures of the finished garage. It worked out very well. We are very happy with how it came out. Now we would like to build a small garden shed (for lawn mower, bikes, gardening tools).\u201d We\u2019re delighted to hear their satisfaction and excited that they\u2019re already planning their next project with us!<br \/>\nThis customer\u2019s success story is a testament to the quality and versatility of iCreatables\u2019 detached garage plans.
