  • Are you saying building ontop of a double garage if so assuming the foundations will take a second floor around 40k to 60k depending on the spec (quality of bathroom fittings) and the roof type unless you are in London then it may be higher . I have just had a quote for building a two story extension which is around double garage size of 120k i work in my area on £100 sq foot my extention is for two self contained flats so has kitchens and bathrooms on both floors. Hope this helps
