Beyond pole buildings, Keuka Valley Builders also specializes in garage construction. Garages may be built as an addition to an existing home (attached) or may be built as a separate structure (detached). Whether you are looking for a basic garage, or a garage with more style and character, we can help you out! We offer garage construction in two different styles; post frame construction (pole building) or stud frame construction. Post frame garages are an excellent choice, especially for individuals who are interested in a useful, well-built garage that is also cost-efficient. Post frame garage construction typically starts with pressure treated posts set in the ground 42” below grade, on top of a concrete footer.
A pressure treated skirt board is fastened to the posts around the perimeter of the building near grade, before wall girts are fastened to the posts. Truss carriers and trusses are installed next, before your choice of roofing material. With stud framed garages, 2×4 or 2×6 vertical studs are placed between sixteen and twenty-four inches apart around the perimeter of the garage, on top of a masonry step wall. Trusses are installed, before your choice of roofing material. Whether you have chosen to go with a post frame or stud frame garage, your choice of roofing material can be the same: architectural shingles or steel roofing.
A lot of customers opt for the steel roofing option, as it’s a longer lasting product, while others do prefer the look of the architectural shingle. The steel roofing comes in 29 gauge as well as 26 gauge steel; however, there are limited colors in the 26 gauge steel. We offer several different siding options for both post frame and stud frame garages: steel, vinyl, composite, or board and batten. The steel siding is popular for most detached garages, while the vinyl or composite siding is popular for attached garages when trying to complement the existing home.
Board and batten siding offers a nice, rustic look to any garage, but also requires more maintenance than the steel, composite, or vinyl. The steel siding is available in a two-tone color combination. If you’re looking to dress the garage up a bit, how about adding in some composite stone from TandoStoneTM? Garage door sizes can vary, depending on your personal garage door needs. A standard size garage door is 9’ wide by 7’ high, while our most popular size is 10’ wide by 8’ high.
Our overhead door supplier offers many different styles, windows, and colors. Check them out at: www.chiohd.com ! Adding a garage to your home or property is a wise decision that will bring you years of use for all of your personal property. Once you have enjoyed some time with a garage, you will probably wonder how you ever functioned without one so well. The professionals at Keuka Valley Builders have knowledge and experience with all sorts of garage designs and we welcome the opportunity to aid you with your own useful creation.
Thank you Dawn and Paul for a fantastic job. The quality of everyone’s work, fit and finish and attention to detail is impressive. Your employees are knowledgeable and pleasant workers. Everyone put up with me asking questions and watching them work. The job site was neat and picked up every day. They were careful to minimize any damage to the grass even though I told them not to worry and drive where ever they needed. Feel free to use us as a reference or to show the barn to perspective clients. Thank you again.
Thank you for everything. It’s been a pleasure doing business with a company that is honest and trustworthy.
We just wanted to let you know how impressed and proud we are of our new barn. From our first phone call with Dawn, to the finished product, your company showed us true customer service and professionalism. Dawn timely returned our phone calls and got back to us with answers to our many questions. As soon as Paul started the construction process, we were quick to realize how efficient and organized he runs his crew and the quality of workmanship and attention to detail is top notch. As the project continued, we enjoyed getting to know the crew and were impressed with not only their work ethic but how they conducted themselves on the job. These men are true craftsmen.
It was important to us that the barn look as close to our house as possible, and we appreciated Paul and Dawn’s input and expertise in offering suggestions. The completed barn, is honestly, better than we had envisioned. Our neighbors and friends have all been over to see the barn and are impressed as well.
Without hesitation, we would recommend Keuka Valley Builders!
Dawn/Paul, We just wanted to take a moment and tell you how pleased we are with our new building. The work ethic that everyone on the job displayed is rarely seen today. We couldn’t believe how hard everyone worked on a day with temps in the 90s. It has been a long time since I have seen men work so hard without any disputes whatsoever. The workmanship is excellent. Nobody can believe how fast our building was completed. We will be referring anyone who needs a building to you without question. We were truly blessed to pick you as our contractor.
We are so happy with the barn! You guys did a great job! Speed, efficiency and a great end product.
The barn is really well built and we are very happy with your work and enjoyed working with you.
From my initial contact, to the last day of construction, I could not be more pleased with this Company. Mr. Catlin and his wife were a pleasure to deal with. From the onsite survey, thru the estimate and written contract proposal, they answered all my questions
Our experience with KVB has been excellent! We just love our addition that was started December 19th. Those guys are pleasant, timely, and very professional. Would definitely recommend them, two thumbs up!
I highly recommend Keuka Valley Builders. Paul and Dawn Catlin took the utmost care to make sure that every detail on my garage project was done to perfection.
