    When you say "fit" are you talking physically... or within current bylaws?

    How much more does it cost to build a double garage with a flat top that will support a patio?

    Looking at a house that doesn't have a detached garage so I want to build one if we buy it. It's on slope so if we were to build a garage it'll be a few steps up from the garage exit to the backyard, so I'm thinking it would be awesome to build one with a flat top so we can use that space as a patio.

    permit aside, is it alot more to build something like that?

    Thought building code changed and you can't do a patio on top of a garage anymore?

    I'll ask here too instead of opening another thread, but how much will a decent double detached garage cost in the city? It will be in a back lane

    $20-$30k. How expensive on that scale depends on 0 lot line lot or not and how big is the pad. At least that's what I was told by a builder in Evanston where $400K house with detached double garages basically doesn't have spaces between them from one house to the next.

    Not allowed, you won't get a permit. see page 36/37. Build one without permit, better hope you neighbors doesn't narc on you.

    Not a builder but I would assume the fortification needed would probably cost $20K+ more?
