Anyone Built a Shop Lately?

[Topwater]

I'm thinking of building a shop. 32x48 or 40 x60. I'm wondering what costs are these days. Anyone have one built lately?

Yes, 24x24, around $20,000. That was a metal shop, roof and walls. (wired)

I have just built a 40x60x16 high over the last two years:

Shop package UFA = $31,000.00
Frost wall (foundation) = $10,000.00
Cost to have shop erected (framed & tinned (2) 14x16 overhead doors installed = $18,500.00
6" Concrete floor with in floor heating (includes all prep work & styrofoam insulation) = $24,000.00
Vapour barrier, Insulation & 1/2" Plywood sheeted inside = $6500.00
R50 spray in insulation in roof = $2500.00
Electrical $9500.00

Total = $102,000.00

I have spent more on top of this putting in a mezzanine, hooking up the hot water heating etc. I would say my total is around $125,000.00. We are currently living in it while waiting for our modular setup to be completed. Here are some pics:

Built a 40 x 60 with 16 foot ceiling, been up for 2 years. lumber was 3000. trusses were 3500. Metal, walls and roof 10000, concrete 10000, 12 x 14 overhead was 1700 and insultation in total was about 5000 but i did alittle outside the box. I did all the labour except for concrete finishing and installing the door.

After that its all about how far you go on the electrical and finishing. All i can say is whatever you think you can get away with for space, triple it and break ground. good luck on your build.

Nice shop. --- my neighbor just built one , looks just like yours, he put in septic tank/ washroom/ cistern ( for water supply) loft / office -- no need for him to even run to the house for nothing, floor drain etc. don't know the tab , but when your making around $ 700, 000/ yr. -- I guess it's no big deal. He poured big concrete apron in front of doors & asphalt paved from road to the shop.--$$$$-- huge.

Looks sharp. What have you got for venting in that roof? We have a shop same size and construction the same. We have a water condensation problem that occurs where the ceiling hits the walls. It is a farm shop and we were told we needed to run temp warmer and it seems to have helped a bit. just looking for any more ideas on what we need to do and if ventilation needs to be improved.

On my brothers 60x40 pole shed, the roof trusses have no heel at the wall for insulation. We built down 16" at a 45' the corner for added insulation. Power gable vents to get rid of heat and moisture.
