What’s an average garage size? This seemingly basic question deserves a bit of a comprehensive answer. Your garage is an important part of your home. Not only does it provide a space for you to safely park your vehicles, but it also has space for storage and possibly even a work area. What do you plan on doing with your garage? Knowing how much space you have to work with is how you will determine what you can do with it.

What’s the average garage size?

The answer to this question varies.

There are no standard garage dimensions. Still, many homeowners think the answer is as simple as a “one-car” (or “single-car” garage), “two-car,” or “three-car” garage. But this can vary, too. And you certainly want something wide enough to get in and out and open your car door! A one-car garage is clearly the smallest choice. On average, a one-car garage is 12 feet wide and 22 feet deep. Other common sizes are 14 x 22 feet, 16 feet x 24 feet, and 14 x 24 feet. These bigger one-car garages are great for storage space in addition to the space for your vehicle. Two-car garage dimensions are generally 18 feet wide by 20 feet deep. But, if you want space to fully open the doors of the car, or you want more storage area or a workspace, there are other common sizes, including 20 x 20, 22 x 22, and 20 x 22. Three-car garages are the most spacious and provide ample parking and storage space. Some homeowners choose to renovate one of the garage areas into a living space, a bedroom, or even a rental unit. These garages are usually 32 feet wide by 22 feet deep (or feet long). Depending on the area you have to work with, a garage builder can make the garage for you at any of those average sizes. Some builders also offer custom-built garages that fit your unique size and shape needs. Garage depth is often as important if not more important than width, especially if your plans include extra storage space or extra space for a “man cave.” The topic of detached garages vs. attached garages doesn’t usually come into play when discussing the various car/garage dimensions. Regardless of what size of garage you have (some people have 4-car garages!), it’s important to remember that a high-quality garage door will keep the area protected and comfortable. You can trust our reliable installation, top-quality product selection, and experience working with homeowners of all kinds throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Can I make my garage wider without planning permission?

planningportal.co.uk - Planning Permission - Garage conversion

Planning permission is not usually required, providing the work is internal and does not involve enlarging the building. If your intention is to convert a garage into a separate house (regardless of who will occupy it), then planning permission may be required no matter what work is involved. We advise that you discuss such proposals with your Local Planning Authority to ensure that any work you do is lawful and correctly permissioned.

Find your Local Planning Authority ( https://www.planningportal.co.uk/find-your-local-planning-authority )

Find your Local Planning Authority

Sometimes permitted development rights have been removed from some properties with regard to garage conversions and therefore you should contact your local planning authority before proceeding, particularly if you live on a new housing development or in a conservation area. Where work is proposed to a listed building, listed building consent may be required. Please note: The permitted development allowances described here apply to houses and not to:

Flats and maisonettes (view our guidance on flats and maisonettes )

Converted houses or houses created through the ‘permitted development’ rights for: ‘Changes of use’ (Schedule 2, Part 3, Classes G; M; MA; N; P; PA and Q) (as detailed in our change of use section ) ‘New Dwellinghouses’ (Schedule 2, Part 20)

Other buildings

Areas where there may be a planning condition, Article 4 Direction or other restriction that limits permitted development rights. Build Aviator's estimating service can help you plan your project by providing an accurate cost of the proposed changes. Find out more .
