Two-Car Garages
2-Car Garages in Southern Maryland — The Standard, Built in a Day
Most families need two vehicles covered and a little room left over for everything else. A two-car garage is built for exactly that. 1 Day Garage Builder frames two-car garages for homeowners across Calvert, St. Mary's, and Charles counties. A typical 24 by 28 build goes up weather-tight in our focused one-day method. It is the most requested size we build, and the one our process was made for.
The Standard Size
What a Two-Car Garage Gives You
A two-car garage is the go-to size for most Southern Maryland homes. It balances covered parking, storage, and cost well. Here is what the standard build brings to a property.
Storage Along the Walls
A 24 by 28 build leaves real room beyond the parking. Bikes, tools, and seasonal gear line the side walls. Clutter finally leaves the house and yard.
A Practical, Proven Size
The two-car footprint fits most lots and most budgets. It delivers the space families actually use every day. That is why it is our most requested build.
Room for Light Projects
Even with two cars, there is space for a bench or workspace. Weekend projects get a real spot to happen. The garage works harder than just parking.
Clean Curb Appeal
A framed, sided two-car garage gives the home a finished look. It reads as intentional and adds lasting value. The property feels more complete.
The One-Day Build
How We Build Your 2-Car Garage
The two-car garage is the build our one-day method was designed around. The sequence is proven and efficient. Each step is organized around your lot and your county.
Plan and Permit
We start with a sales appointment to size the garage and review your lot. We help confirm the permit path with Calvert, Charles, or St. Mary's County first. Getting that right keeps the build on schedule.
Prepare the Foundation
A level, cured foundation must be ready before build day arrives. We define “foundation ready” so your slab or piers meet the region's frost-depth rules. A solid base is what makes the fast build possible.
Frame and Enclose in a Day
On build day, our team frames and encloses the structure. A typical 24 by 28 garage is weather-tight by the end of that day. This is the build we know best.
Finish and Walk Through
We complete doors, trim, and final details after the shell is standing. Then we walk the finished garage with you before you put it to use. You leave knowing exactly what was built.
