Building on top of garage

Posted

I just purchased a duplex and I have two detached 2 car garages.  The garages themselves in one building.  I would like to build a unit on top the garages in the future.  Has anyone done this?  What is the cost like?  I know it would be WAY more expensive than converting one of the garages but I want to keep both garages.
