Worth knowing

Garage builds in Pittston, ME

Pittston sits on the east bank of the Kennebec River, and the town's mix of riverfront and inland farmland lots means garage siting looks different depending on which part of town you're in. Riverfront parcels need extra grading and drainage attention. Inland farmland lots along the Pittston Farm Road corridor build more straightforwardly.

One bay garages run roughly 12x22 to 14x24 ft. Two bay garages, the size most Central Maine homeowners land on, run 22x24 to 24x24 ft. Three bay garages run 30x24 up to 36x24 ft, and Pittston's inland farmland lots handle that larger footprint well.

No concrete apron goes in front of the door, here or anywhere else we build. Gravel runs to it.

Foundation work runs best April through November. Riverfront lots benefit from an early-season start, before spring runoff complicates grading work.

What it costs

How much a garage costs in Pittston

These are ranges. Your quote comes after we walk the site.

SizeTypical dimensionsEstimated range*
One bay12x22 to 14x24 ft$28,000 to $45,000
Two bay22x24 to 24x24 ft$45,000 to $70,000
Three bay30x24 to 36x24 ft$65,000 to $95,000

Riverfront lots needing extra grading and drainage work can run toward the higher end of these ranges versus inland farmland sites.

Do I need a permit for a garage in Pittston?

Almost always, yes. Riverfront lots also fall under shoreland zoning, which adds a review step beyond the standard building permit.

Is a riverfront lot more expensive to build on in Pittston?

Often somewhat, mainly due to drainage and grading work, not the garage structure itself. We assess your specific lot and tell you honestly where the cost comes from.

Can you build on inland farmland in Pittston?

Yes, and these lots typically build more straightforwardly than riverfront parcels, without the added drainage planning.

How long does a typical build take in Pittston?

A standard two bay build usually runs 6 to 10 weeks from groundbreaking, weather and drainage grading depending.
