Can my garage be relocated at a later date?
ZAPF has been a leading supplier of precast concrete garages for over 50 years. We place great emphasis on quality, reliability and customer satisfaction. A frequently asked question from our customers concerns the relocation of existing garages.
Why do we not offer garage relocation services?
- Structural integrity: Precast concrete garages are designed to ensure maximum structural integrity and stability once they have been erected. Relocation could compromise this stability and increase the risk of damage or even collapse.
- Permits and regulations: Any relocation of a garage may require a new permit and may encounter various building code hurdles. Different federal states and municipalities have specific regulations that must be complied with, making the process complicated and time-consuming.
- Potential damage: Lifting and transporting an existing garage carries a high risk of damage to the structure, foundation and installed systems (e.g. electrical connections). Repair costs can quickly exceed the benefits of relocation.
Alternatives to garage relocation
- New garage construction: In many cases, building a new garage is a more economical and safer alternative. Our modern precast concrete garages offer a wide range of options to meet the individual needs and requirements of our customers. Enquire now without obligation.
- Garage modernisation: Instead of relocating an existing garage, it may make sense to modernise it. This can be done, for example, by adding additional garage units or adapting the existing structure. Enquire now without obligation.
