Custom Free-Standing Garages | Proven Builders You Can Trust

Freestanding Garages in South Carolina

From single-bay storage to multi-bay workshops with lofts, D.A.R.T Construction builds detached garages that look right and work hard. First, our team plans siting, setbacks, turning radius, and driveway tie-ins; then we manage grading, drainage, and foundations, whether a monolithic slab or a stem-wall system fits best. Meanwhile, crews frame true and square, create a weather-tight shell, and install reliable doors and openers. In addition, we coordinate power, lighting, EV-charger readiness, and (when specified) water lines or a comfort mini-split. Throughout the job, we issue line-item estimates, track schedule targets, maintain a clean, orderly site, and keep neighbors respected.

Why D.A.R.T Construction for Freestanding Garages

Because a detached garage must perform every day, not just on move-in day. We calibrate clear spans and header sizes, set precise rough openings for overhead or carriage doors, and reinforce slab edges where vehicles track. Beyond structure, we align rooflines and exterior materials to complement the home, install moisture protection and termite barriers suited to South Carolina conditions, and plan lighting circuits and outlets at working height. Plus, we pre-wire for openers and EV charging, set apron slopes and gutters to move water away, and verify door balance and seal before handoff.

The process

Our Freestanding Garage Build Process

Site Fit & Layout

First, we evaluate setbacks, maneuvering room, vehicle sizes, door positions, driveway connections, and trees/landscaping to protect.

Options, Estimate & Schedule

Next, we present line-item options like door sizes/types, storage lofts, insulation packages, electrical/EV readiness, exterior materials, along with a realistic timeline and milestones.

Permits & Prebuild

Then we secure approvals, locate utilities, order long-lead items (doors, trusses, metal), install erosion control, and set benchmarks for elevation and drainage.

Foundation & Slab

After prep, we place base, forms, and reinforcement with a vapor barrier; pour and finish the slab with proper slope and apron; and apply termite treatment as required.

Electrical, Fit-Out & Closeout

Finally, we wire lighting/outlets (including EV-ready circuits), add storage systems if specified, complete paint and trim, clean thoroughly, and complete the walkthrough and handover.
