Wooden garages

Although a wooden prefab garage is usually built to protect your car from rain and cold, its’ purpose can be much wider.

Firstly, you can store less frequently used items in wooden garages. Lawnmower, patio furniture, Christmas decorations, or large yard tools – all of these things can be stored right next to the car. Building a small storage room for storing things is recommended as the order is much easier to keep in this way.

The second idea that helps to use a wooden car garage fully is the installation of a small workshop space. We are used to spending a lot of time working outdoors during summer and winter, but the weather is not always warm and nice enough for that.  Therefore, works such as transplanting flowers, or repairing things could be moved to your workshop space in a garage easily. We recommend equipping it with a comfortable table, and making sure enough daylight gets in.

Another advantage, more related to the construction process of wooden garages for sale, is the easy installation of the building. Wood is considered the most practical material used for garage construction. It is not only price-friendly but also easy to build.

Experts say it is wrong to think that garages made of brick blocks can be built faster. Due to the simple constructions of wooden garages, they are characterized by an extremely simple construction process. Building them takes 1 to 7 working days (unless the project is very complex). In the case of brick garages, their construction can take months.

The construction of wooden garages for sale is also much faster because a lot of wet construction work is not needed in comparison with brick garages. For example, there is no waiting for the masonry mix or plaster to dry. It is also important to mention that the construction of wooden garages can be carried out in practically any weather – wooden garages can be built even in winter.

One of the biggest advantages of wooden garages is their excellent insulation properties. Like wooden houses intended for living, these buildings perfectly retain heat, so they usually do not require additional insulation, even in cases you decide to install a workshop or a storage room inside.

Although a brick or block garage may look more long-term and warmer, this assumption is wrong. To achieve the same thermal insulation in a brick garage as a wooden garage has naturally, you will need to invest extra.

For a long time, brick garages were considered the most common choice of customers. However, the advantages of the wooden garages’ look revealed in the long term.

Given that the walls of each wooden building are constantly exposed to different weather conditions, it is difficult to deny that the protection requires special attention. However, to ensure the excellent condition of the brick or block garage facade, it will also be necessary to invest in it.

According to experts, the aim is to preserve the naturalness of wooden garages and assure the proper protection at the same time. Perhaps the most popular wall protection products for that are oil-based products. In many cases, these protective measures are combined with a special varnish for the walls, which protects from external factors.  The specialists of maestrocbins.co.uk say the biggest mistake is to leave walls of wooden garages without any protective layer. Whatever wall protection you choose, it is still a better solution than leaving the garage without any protection.

It is well known that wood, like any other natural material, is a good growth medium for rot fungi, powdery mildew, mold, and climate change, and increased humidity provides better growth conditions for these organisms. However, if the wood is properly protected, it becomes resistant to harmful environmental factors and oxidation, which tends to form stains on the facade surface, damaging the overall appearance of the facade.

Looking at today’s market, wooden garage prices depend on the size and modifications mostly. The materials from which the garage is built also influence the final price. The price of wooden garages for sale starts from ~6000 euros in the market. Wooden prefab garages can be easily adapted to the exterior of your house if you choose wood of a similar appearance for the construction. To make your wooden structures look more natural, the wood can be impregnated with natural protective agents.

When you start considering which garage might be best for you, we first recommend assessing your essential needs:

– How many cars are you going to keep in your garage all the time?

– Do you plan to store extra items in the garage?

After all, if you have only one car in your family, building a double garage usually doesn’t make sense. However, if the garage will serve you as a storage space as well, the installation of a larger option could make much more sense.

Single wooden garages
We can consider this type of garage to be the most common option on the construction market, providing comprehensive protection for one car at any time of the year. The aim when building this type of garage is usually to reduce the space to the maximum, making this car protection option cheaper.

Single garages with storage
A particularly common mistake is the belief that you can store larger items used in a particular season in a single garage with your car. The truth is, if you intend to store more than just a car in the garage, it should only be installed with a built-in storage room. This way you will have enough space to store your belongings and maintain order, which is especially important in the case of a single garage.

Single garages with porches
When a garage with a porch is installed, larger items are usually stored underneath, making it extremely difficult to maintain order in the yard. For this reason, we recommend planning a special place for storing things inside the garage. A garage with a porch is better to choose if you have two cars in the family or relatives often visit you.

Double wooden garages
This type is most recommended when you have two or more cars in your family. A larger garage can also become a storage place for less frequently used items, such as a lawnmower, or additional vehicles.
