How much does a garage bump out cost?

• <div><p>A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/garage-bump-out-addition.htm">garage bump-out</a> is a small addition that extends the size of the garage, usually by just a few feet. Homeowners might install bump-outs to store lawn equipment, sporting gear, holiday decorations, and more. Because you’re not changing the existing garage structure as much, a bump-out isn’t as expensive or labor intensive as a full-blown garage extension. Expect to pay around $1,800–$6,000 for 2-by-10-foot bump-out (and more for larger additions).</p><p> </p></div>
