One of the first things you should consider when building your garage; what size Garage your city will allow you to build on your existing lot. Lot coverage building codes are not all the same, they vary in different cities and townships. You are only allowed to cover a certain percentage of of your lot home included. From there you can start getting quotes and see what fits into your budget. If you have a narrow lot that goes back to an alley, a detached garage may be the best choice for your lot size and shape. However, a detached garage will eat up a lot of the space and yard you have. This may be where an attached garage may be the best fit for your needs, as you will still have a good portion of your yard for the family and pets to enjoy , but only if you have enough yard available to the side of your house.
Another consideration is the intended use of the garage. If it is to keep out of the weather from your car to your home, then an attached garage will be a better idea. If it is to set up a workshop where you can have a space for projects, then a detached garage will be sufficient. Plus it could offer more space than an attached garage.
Additionally, you should take into consideration the styles in your neighborhood and the condition of your home. Attached garages are newer architecture and if you live in an older area or a historical home, then an attached garage will look out of place. Plus it could detract from the charm of the neighborhood and salability of your home.
