Looking really good  :y

Can I ask what kind of ball park figure this cost? Guess I would need to add around 30% as I won't be able to do any of the work myself or know contacts in trade  :(

Fixed that for you! Well, that's been my experience so far, anyway, comparing materials costs alone vs. what I'm quoted for work.. (e.g. £600 for a 16x10' concrete base vs. ~£300 in materials - actually that one isn't a bad deal, really)

It's a bit difficult to put an exact figure on the cost of the garage, as alot of the groundworks costs are for the garage, as well as the large concrete base beyond and the driveway.

However, by the time I have finished, I expect to have spent £25,000 on the garage, and a further £15,000 on the shed, carport and driveway.

Ouch!!  ::)

I'd love to see some more details about this - I'm just starting my own project so anything extra to see/read is useful.

Thanks

Twigs, always interest. I know its not a car project, but such projects, watching them develop and grow, I think are very interesting.

Keep 'em coming I say :y
