How much does a 1-car garage cost in Colorado?
The short answer
A 1-car garage from The Shed Yard starts at $8,314 for a 12x14 as of September 2026, and most customers parking a vehicle start at a 12x16 for $8,934. A fuller project with permitting and a foundation commonly lands near $25,000 permitted as a shed or about $30,000 permitted as a garage — broken down in our 1-car garage cost guide.
Two different numbers answer two different questions. The starting price covers the garage building. A project total can also include site work, a gravel pad or concrete foundation, permit documents, permit fees, delivery conditions, and options.
- 12x14: $8,314 — lowest-priced model, best for compact storage or recreational equipment.
- 12x16: $8,934 — practical starting size for a smaller vehicle.
- 12x20: $10,156 — most passenger vehicles with usable storage depth.
- 12x24: $11,343 — pickup trucks or vehicles needing more clearance.
- 14x24: $12,431 — more side clearance and room along the walls.
