Previous Q & A
Q:Hello- I would like to add another single garage bay onto this house design. I am having a hard time trying to picture how you would accomplish tying the roof in. Do you have any ideas as to how this could be accomplished? I want a bay my F250 can fit in so I would like a 8-9' wide by 8' tall single garage door, and the bay would need to be 24-25' deep. I plan on making this model a farmhouse design. I have a couple other simple changes like bumping the left and rear walls of the whole house out 2 feet. Thank you! Ryan Shugars
A:Hello, We can do that without too much trouble the third car would be a front to back gable roof and the changes can be made at an hourly
Rate of $115/hour. If your are interested we could get an estimate of hours involved once you send me a list of exactly what you wanted.
Thanks,
-Mike
