Garage and storage built for function and long lifespan

A garage or storage building is often one of the most practical structures on a plot. It should handle weather, be easy to use and bring order to daily life. We build garages and storage with a focus on a stable foundation, robust framing and details that keep it tight — and we do it so the building truly fits your needs, not just becomes “another space”.

We start with use: should it be cold storage, insulated storage, a garage for a car, a workshop or a combination? Do you need space for bikes, garden tools, winter storage or a workbench? We help you size it right and plan smart. Planning is often what decides whether you love the building for ten years — or get annoyed that the door is in the wrong place every day.

Technically it’s about the right build‑up: moisture protection, stable framing and a roof that really stays tight. We put a lot of focus on connections, metalwork, fascia boards, eaves and how water is led away. On Öland, with wind and weather, robust details are extra important. We don’t build “on a hunch”; we build for longevity.

If you want an insulated space, we talk through ventilation and how to avoid condensation and moisture issues. We can also help with interior smartness: shelving, storage systems, wall rails, work surfaces and lighting that make the building more than just “storage”. Many appreciate that we think the whole: how you move in and out, how the door/garage door affects flow and how to get the most function per square meter.

Appearance matters too. We can adapt facade, cladding type, roof and details so the garage or storage harmonizes with the house. The result should look deliberate — not like a quick fix. Whether you want a modern, clean look or a more traditional building, we help you find the right expression.

You get a clear process and a setup that suits you. The goal is a building that feels professional, practical and built to work — for many years ahead.

FAQ about garages and storage

Quick answers about scope, areas and how to get started.

How do you choose the right size for storage?

Think about what actually needs to fit: garden tools, bikes, tires, a ladder or outdoor furniture. It often pays to go slightly bigger than the minimum so the storage keeps working as needs grow.

We help you plan shelves, walking space and door placement so the area is used smartly — not just a “pile space”.

What matters in the foundation and floor?

The foundation solution and moisture protection affect lifespan and how the building feels to use. A stable, dry base reduces the risk of warping, bounce and future maintenance.

At a site visit we look at ground and levels and suggest a setup that fits both function and the plot’s conditions.

Can you match the facade and roof to the house?

Yes — and it makes a big visual difference. By matching cladding type, color, roof pitch or trim details you get a building that looks “planned”, not added on.

We help you find a level that fits your budget and ambition — from simple and functional to more integrated and refined.

How should you think about doors and access?

Storage only works if it’s easy to use. The right door width, threshold solution and placement make it easy to carry items in and out without hassle.

We discuss how you use the space day‑to‑day and build accordingly. Small dimension changes here often help more than “fancier” materials.

Do you need a permit or notification?

It depends on size, placement and municipal rules/detail plan. Some measures can be permit‑free, others require a permit or notification.

We can help you understand what’s usually relevant to check so you have the right conditions before planning too far.

How soon can you come out and look?

On Öland we aim to be flexible with site visits. Once we’ve seen the place we can more quickly say what’s reasonable in construction, size and next steps.

Feel free to send a photo of the location and a short list of what you want to store — it makes the visit extra efficient.

How do you price a garage or storage building?

Size, foundation, insulation level and door choices have the biggest impact. Placement and ground conditions can also matter.

We review your needs on site and propose a setup that is clear from the start.

Where do you build garages and storage sheds?

We primarily work on Öland and also take projects in Kalmar municipality when it fits our planning.
