    I've dreamt of building a shop for a long time and it's finally starting! I'm limited on how large it can be based on my lot and township restrictions, but I'll make up for that with awesome finishings and features. But since I enjoy pain I'm also simultaneously going to build out our backyard into an oasis for the family. This project is HUGE and it's daunting to say the least...but hey, one step at a time, right?

    I doubt you'll see this in the menagerie of all the other comments, but I am also in Ohio and ran into a similar situation when building my shop. Estimates I was getting were through the roof. For a tiny little 600 square foot shop. I ended up hiring an Amish concrete contractor to pour the footing/foundation/slab and an Amish framing crew to frame it and dry it in. I acted as my own GC and did the rest of the work myself. Even bought my own building materials. Literally saved more than half of the original estimates.

      I am in Ashtabula County and had an Amish crew build my 3,600 sq ft barn. I contacted Carter Lumber for the material and they had the Amish crew put it up. $89,000 for my barn with 20' walls and 16' lean too. All metal siding and roof.

    I work in utility construction and in our neck of the woods the 'call before you dig' service usually doesn't locate the fiber.
    If you're going to have a specific access point, you should throw down some 2 inch down gravel so it doesn't turn into a complete mudpit when it rains. It will still get muddy, but you can just throw down a couple more yards if/when low spots occur. It should also mitigate how much mud gets tracked onto the street, so your neighbors will be happy.

    I can't imagine the nerves involved in actually pulling the trigger on this project. Your backyard was already very nice looking. Having to tear it up is that 'point of no return' decision that makes most balk on these kind of projects.

    The is literally an order of magnitude difference in pricing between contractors. In 2008 (also in Ohio near Columbus) I tore down a small garage and hired a contractor to pour a 24x24 pad for $6k. I built the rest myself with an attic for $15k. In 2020 we moved to a new house and added onto it. While it wasn’t broken out, the 600 sq ft shop with an attic was about $50k-$60k.

    Ran Bobcat at a ski resort. Going down an alpine ski run is really fun and not scary at all. Relying completely on the bucket to prevent tipping forward is no problem and doesn’t at all feel like the whole thing is about to go. Going up requires you to go backward and that is fun too.

    I'm so excited for you. Building construction is exciting and enjoyable if you're a DIY type of person. I've been working for the last 4 years on getting a shop built. It's about the same total square footage as the shop you're building. But it has a basement instead of an attic and there has been a lot of concrete work as the basement is set into the side of a hill. I don't feel as bad when I hear about the initial building quotes you were getting. I've done a lot of the work myself and have a shell for the building and am already well past your original building quote.
