What We Do

Garage Building Options

Detached Garage

A standalone garage or workshop, built and roofed to the same standard as your home.

Attached Garage

Integrated with your home's roofline and exterior for a seamless look.

Weather-Tight Build

Foundation, framing, house wrap, and a real roof system, not a kit shed.

Three Ways We Build

New Builds, Conversions & Additions

Whatever shape your garage project takes, it gets the same slab-to-shingles construction standard as the rest of our work.

New Garage Construction

A brand new detached or attached garage built from a poured foundation, with full framing, house wrap, and a shingle or metal roof tied into your home's existing roofline.

Garage Conversions

Turning an existing garage into a workshop, home gym, or living space, with proper insulation, electrical, and finished walls, while keeping the option to convert it back to a garage later.

Garage Additions

Adding a garage onto a home that does not have one, matched to your existing siding, trim, and roof so it reads as original construction, not an add-on.

Why Homeowners Choose Us

Roof-First Construction, Not a Kit Shed

Most garage builders subcontract the roof out or treat it as an afterthought. We are a roofing company first, so the roof system on your garage gets the same underlayment, ventilation, and flashing detail as a full home re-roof, tied cleanly into your existing roofline so water sheds the way it should for the life of the structure. That structural discipline carries through the whole build: proper footings or a reinforced slab, square and code-compliant framing, and house wrap installed correctly the first time, not patched over gaps later.

We also handle the parts homeowners dread. Permitting and code compliance are pulled and managed for you, and where a project falls inside an HOA, we build to the association's architectural guidelines so the garage is approved before crews show up, not after. One crew carries the job from the first design conversation through framing, roofing, siding, and final walkthrough, so there is one point of contact and one warranty on the finished work, not several subcontractors to chase down if something needs attention later.

Real Work, Built to Last

Featured Project: 28x40 Detached Garage, Lake Waccamaw

This custom 28×40 detached garage in Lake Waccamaw showcases the quality, structural planning, and attention to detail Howard Roofing & Construction brings to every garage building project.

The garage was constructed on a monolithic concrete slab tied directly into the existing driveway, creating a seamless transition and long-term structural stability. The build included:

The finished project delivered a durable, code-compliant structure that blended cleanly with the existing home while adding significant storage, workspace, and property value. Total project investment: $55,852.

For a closer look at a smaller detached build, our 24x24 detached garage project in Midtown Wilmington walks through the full process start to finish: concrete slab foundation, framing, a shingle roof with ridge vent, HardiePlank siding, and full electrical, completed in four weeks from slab pour to final inspection.

Garage Building FAQ

Common Questions

Do you build detached and attached garages?+

Yes, both. We design to your space and match your home's roofline and exterior.

Do I need a permit for a garage?+

Yes. We handle the permit and build to code so it passes inspection.

Can the garage match my house?+

Yes. We match the roof, siding, and trim so the garage looks original to the home.

Do you handle electrical and doors?+

We coordinate electrical rough-in and install doors and windows as part of the build.

How long does a garage take?+

It depends on size and finish level. We give a realistic schedule before we start.

Should I convert my existing garage or build a new one?+

It depends on what you need the space for and how much room you have. If you need covered parking and there's room on the lot, a new build usually makes more sense. If you want a workshop, gym, or extra living space and don't need the parking, converting the garage you already have is often the faster, less expensive path. We'll walk the property and give you a straight answer.

Do you handle HOA or architectural review approval?+

Yes. Where a property falls inside an HOA, we build to the association's architectural guidelines and can prepare the drawings needed for their review before we pull permits.

What determines the cost of a garage build?+

The biggest factors are size, foundation type, roofing and siding materials, and the finish level inside (bare stud versus a finished workshop or living space). We walk through all of these with you before giving a quote, so there are no surprises.

Will the garage roof match my home's existing roof?+

Yes. Because we are a roofing company first, we tie the garage roof into your home's existing roofline and match the shingle or metal roofing so it reads as one structure, not an add-on.

Can you convert my garage into a workshop or living space?+

Yes. Garage conversions are one of our three most common garage projects, alongside new builds and additions. We handle insulation, electrical, and finished walls, and can keep the option open to convert it back to a garage later if you ever want to.

Do you offer a warranty on new garage construction?+

Yes. Because one crew handles the whole build from foundation to finish, you get one point of contact and one warranty on the work, not several subcontractors to chase down if something needs attention later.
