around £2000-£2500 in materials depending on where you souce your stuff not hard to build it yourself, have built a slightly larger garage in 4weekends with help from a family friend.
Sounds like total waste of 10k if you ask me...0 -

This actually is the second one. The first came in at £18-20K depending on the plans!depending on the groundwork required your not being fleeced but find a builder that knows a roofer you can do better .
Ironically this is actually from a roofer (who did a minor repair for me). When I asked him if he collaborated with any builders for such a project he told me he could do all this for me (including the electrics). I guess he's had a history of working in the building trade before specializing.0 -
Recently built an 8mx4m detatched garage, base was already there.
Had a brickie, joiner and roofer, laboured to the brickie (100mm block was used) and helped the joiner and roofer when needed.
Got a local roughcaster for the roughcasting and another local firm for the doors (up and over front, side UPVC).
Box gable tiled roof, I done the electrics myself.
Paid approximately £6500.
Sectional garages with a new base to ensure it was perfectly flat were coming in at around £1000 less than your quotes.
Personally, I don't think your quote is too bad.0
