Amish Made. Stick Built. Finished Quick

Elevate your estate with AmishCo's Single Story Site Built Truss Garage, a popular choice among homeowners seeking maximum functionality and visual appeal. Crafted with precision by skilled Amish craftsmen, our clear-span truss design offers increased flexibility and efficiency in garage space utilization.

The absence of internal support walls (necessary in some of our modular garages) ensures a spacious and open layout, providing ample room for parking vehicles, unpacking groceries, or maneuvering large items with ease. With no pillars to obstruct movement, you can enjoy hassle-free access and greater convenience in your daily routines.

The engineered trusses provide exceptional structural strength, allowing for a quick and straightforward construction process. Our standard site built truss garage is designed to be built on a concrete pad, making it ideal for a daily use garage. And by eliminating shipping restrictions associated with delivering pre-built modules, you can tailor the design to suit your specific needs and preferences.

Our prefabricated walls and efficient assembly methods ensure minimal disruption to your property, with installation typically completed in just two to three days. Compare this to the extended construction timelines associated with traditional on-site builds through local contractors, and it's clear why our Single Story Site Built Truss Garage is a preferred choice among savvy homeowners who want their project done on time, on budget, and without recurring communication issues.

Invest in quality craftsmanship, durability, and convenience with AmishCo's Site Built Truss Garage. If an Amish Built Garage is what you're looking for, you've come to the right place. Contact us today to request a quote and take the first step toward enhancing your property with a garage that's built to last.

How it Works

You'll Have a Concrete Pad Poured by Others
Our Crew will Bring the Materials - or in Some Cases the Building Materials will be Delivered Separately
Our Crew will Build Your Garage on Your Concrete Pad
Concrete Anchors are Used to Attach Your Garage to Your Concrete Pad
Engineered Trusses are Used Which Provide the Structural Integrity for the Roof

Transportation

All Building Materials are Typically Delivered on One Load

Setup Time

Build Time Varies Depending on Size, Siding & Roofing Type, Options, Etc
Build Times Typically Range Between Two to Five Days

Site Access

Because Our Site Built Truss Garages are Built at Your Location (without delivering pre-built modules) They are Sometimes the Better Choice for Building Sites with Less Access
Our Crew Will Need to Drive a Pickup Truck and Trailer to the Building Site
Our Crew Will Need Adequate Space to Work on all Sides of the Garage During Construction, Typically 3'-4' or More from any Fence, House or Nearby Building

Foundation Requirements

Our Site Built Truss Garages Require a Concrete Pad
The Necessary Thickness of the Concrete Pad Varies Depending on Use and Local Codes, but in all Cases the Perimeter Thickness Will be Greater, this is Commonly Referred to as a Monolithic Concrete Pad
The Concrete Pad Should be the Exact Width and Length of the Garage. For Example a 24'x36' Truss Garage Would Require a 24'0"x36'0" Concrete Pad
We Will Anchor the Garage Onto the Concrete Pad with Concrete Anchors
Note: AmishCo is Different From Most Local Contractors in That We Do Not Handle All Aspects of Your Project from Beginning to End. Our Focus is Very Narrow: The Garage Itself. As Such We Do Not Provide Site Prep and Concrete Services Ourselves, However We Will Provide You with all Details Necessary for Local Contractors to Handle the Concrete and in Some Locations we can also Provide Referrals for Concrete Contractors

11/12 Pitch Scissor Trusses
12/12 Pitch Scissor Trusses
Pitch: The Pitch of the Truss Determines How Many Inches of Vertical Rise There is on the Roof for Every 12" of Horizontal Run. For Example a 5/12 Pitch Truss Would Indicate That the Roof Rises Vertically 5" for Every 12" of Horizontal Distance, or Run. The Higher the Number, the Steeper the Roof.
Standard Trusses: Standard Trusses have a Flat Bottom Cord, Creating a Flat Ceiling on the Interior. This Flat Bottom Cord (or Horizontal Bottom Brace) on Each Truss, Sits on Top of the Sidewalls.
Scissor Trusses: Scissor Trusses Utilize a Sloped Bottom Cord (or Somewhat of an A-Shaped Bottom Cord - or Angled Bottom Brace) That Slopes Upwards Towards the Center of the Garage on Each Side, Creating a Cathedral Ceiling. This Gives You More Ceiling Height in the Center of the Garage Than at Each Sidewall.

Built to Last. Ready for What’s Next.

AmishCo’s Site-Built Truss Garages aren’t just a place to park your vehicles—they’re a long-term solution for real life. Whether you need a dependable structure for your truck and SUV, want to declutter the basement, or you're finally ready to build that home gym, office, or workshop, this garage delivers the space and flexibility you need to get it done right.

Unlike prefab kits or shells, these garages are fully built on-site by professional crews using traditional framing and engineered trusses. That means every inch of space is usable, solid, and tailored to your property—no gimmicks, no wasted square footage.

Not a Kit. Built Right On-Site.

This isn’t a pre-built shell dropped off by a truck. AmishCo’s site-built garages are framed and constructed on your property by experienced crews using high-quality materials and engineered trusses. From start to finish, it’s a full construction project—without the general contractor price tag.

We’ll handle the structure. You or your contractor will handle the site prep and concrete. We provide clear drawings and everything your builder needs for permitting and foundation work.

Engineered to Last

From 30-year architectural shingles to premium LP SmartSide siding and engineered roof systems, every detail is designed for long-term durability. Pressure-treated bottom plates, hurricane ties, and precise beam spans ensure this structure holds up—season after season, year after year.

All framing is built to meet or exceed international building code requirements, and our truss systems are designed for serious strength and longevity. Amish craftsmanship means you get the look you want with the strength you need.

Customize It to Fit Your Property

Need the garage doors on the gable end? Want a shed dormer for more light and usable space upstairs? Looking for a metal roof or a board-and-batten siding upgrade?

With AmishCo’s site-built garages, customization is easy. We offer flexible options so your garage fits your land, your lifestyle, and your vision—with no pressure, no fluff, and no unnecessary add-ons.

Let’s Talk

A site-built garage is a real investment in your property—and in your future. It’s not the cheapest garage you can buy, and that’s the point. You’re getting a structure that’s designed to last and built the right way, from day one.

Choosing the Right Garage: A Complete Guide to AmishCo’s Single-Story Site-Built Truss Garages

If you're a homeowner searching for an "Amish-built garage" or a "stick-built garage near me," you're in the right place. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know about AmishCo’s Single-Story Site-Built Truss Garages—from deciding on the right size, to selecting the best materials, to making the most of your investment. Whether you're upgrading your property or starting from scratch, this article is built to help you make an informed decision and feel confident in your purchase.

Why Choose an Amish-Built Garage?

The term "Amish-made" carries weight—and for good reason. Amish craftsmanship is known for attention to detail, structural integrity, and a commitment to quality materials. At AmishCo, we’ve taken this tradition and merged it with modern building practices to create a garage that’s both practical and long-lasting.

Our Single Story Site-Built Truss Garages are not prefabricated kits. They're framed and constructed on-site using engineered trusses, real lumber, and professional methods. For homeowners who are focused on quality and long-term value, this matters. It’s not just about storage—it’s about building something dependable and well-designed.

What Makes a Stick-Built Garage Better Than a Metal Garage?

When comparing options, many customers consider a metal garage because it’s cheaper upfront. But metal garages often come with trade-offs in aesthetics, energy efficiency, and long-term durability.

A stick-built garage:

Matches the look and feel of your home
Is easier to insulate, wire, or finish later
Feels quieter and more substantial
Can be customized more easily

If you plan to use your garage daily or want it to enhance your property’s curb appeal, the stick-built route is hard to beat.

Common Questions When Buying a Garage

Buying a garage is a major investment. We often hear questions like:

How much space do I really need?
Should I go with shingles or a metal roof?
What kind of concrete pad is required?
Can I finance my garage?

Let’s break it all down in helpful detail.

How to Choose the Right Garage Size

It’s not just about fitting two vehicles. Think about future use:

Do you need space for a workshop?
Are you storing seasonal items?
Will you need room for a lawn tractor or utility trailer?

Here’s a rough guide:

20x20 to 20x24: Good for two small cars or one car and storage.
24x24 to 24x32: Ideal for trucks, SUVs, and extra space for tools.
28x36 and up: Perfect for workspaces, small business needs, or hobby zones.

Pro tip: If you're on the fence, go bigger. Most customers wish they had added more space, not less.

Where to Place the Garage on Your Property

The placement of your garage isn’t just about where it fits—it’s about how you’ll use it. Here are some practical tips:

Driveway Access: Consider turning radius and ease of pulling in/out.
Drainage: Make sure water runs away from the slab.
Sun Exposure: South-facing garages can help melt snow in winter.
Utilities: If you plan to add electric or water, locate near existing lines.

And don’t forget zoning! Some counties have setback requirements or maximum square footage limits. We provide drawings to help with permits.

How to Think About Siding

When homeowners search for "custom garages near me," they often want something that matches the house. That’s where siding comes in:

LP SmartSide: Our standard and most popular option. Engineered wood that resists moisture, insects, and rot.
Board & Batten: Adds vertical lines and a farmhouse feel.
Vinyl Siding: Affordable, low-maintenance, and versatile.
Hardie Plank: Fire-resistant, long-lasting, and sleek.

Which should you choose? Match your home if resale value is a factor. Otherwise, go with what looks good and fits your budget.

Roofing: Metal vs. Shingles

This decision is about both function and style:

Architectural Shingles: Standard on most homes. Clean, durable, and cost-effective.
Ribbed Metal: Sheds snow and rain easily, adds a rustic touch.
Standing Seam Metal: Sleek, modern, and high-end. Great for low-maintenance needs.

We always recommend thinking about resale: match your home when possible, or opt for long-term performance if the garage stands alone.

What Kind of Windows Should You Get?

Windows affect how your garage feels and functions. Natural light makes a huge difference, especially if you’re working inside regularly. Insulated windows help with climate control and noise reduction.

Consider adding a transom window or two near the roof line for light without losing wall space. Or go with larger insulated panes if you’ll be inside during winter or summer.

Do You Need Insulated Garage Doors?

Standard AmishCo garages include insulated 9’x7’ doors. But you can choose different styles:

Glass inserts for daylight
Carriage-style doors for a classic look
Solid panel doors for privacy

Insulation matters more if you’ll be heating or cooling the space, or if you just want to reduce temperature swings and outside noise.

What About the Concrete Pad?

Your garage will be anchored to a poured concrete slab. While we don’t pour the concrete ourselves, we provide detailed specs so your contractor can do it right.

Key tips:

Use a monolithic slab with thicker edges for stability
Pad must be exactly sized to the garage
Ensure a level surface with drainage away from the garage
Plan for at least 3’ of working space around the pad during construction

Should You Finance Your Garage?

A well-built garage adds both functionality and property value. Financing can make it easier to move forward now:

Use a home equity line of credit (HELOC)
Ask us about financing partners
Consider 0% or low-interest credit cards for smaller garages

Remember: garages often increase home resale value and can be written off for business use if applicable.

Why Our Customers Love Site-Built Truss Garages

We asked recent customers why they chose AmishCo over others. Here's what they said:

"I wanted real craftsmanship—not a kit."
"No middlemen. Just straight answers and a solid build."
"It was done in three days. I was shocked."

That’s the benefit of working with a company that focuses only on building garages—not managing your entire property project.

Helpful Tip: Planning for the Future

Even if you’re just storing cars and tools now, plan ahead. Want to add solar panels? Need extra space for hobbies later? Think long-term:

Add extra outlets or conduit during construction
Go up a size if you’re unsure
Choose a higher roof pitch or scissor trusses for future loft storage
