- How much did it cost to build my shop, 40x60 workshop price breakdown
I wanted to talk about all the costs of building my 40x 60 workshop, and I breakdown all of the associated costs that may not be on your initial estimate. Some of the different costs associated with building new shop; contractor, builder, electrical, plumbing, supplies, lighting, concrete slab & dirt work, any necessary permits, water and sewer hook ups, and drive way to name a few, I didn't consider all of these items when initially pricing out my shop. I still have a lot of work to do to the inside, such as building rooms, a loft, a bar/kitchen area, and a storage area upstairs. Its tall enough to have some upstairs living area in the back of the shop. All of that will come over time, but for now we can use it for all of our projects around our property, and a play area for the kids. Here in a couple weeks I will do a tour video of the shop and give more details about it. I hope this video is helpful to anyone looking to price out a new shop during this pandemic. Also, good luck finding a lot of the supplies needed for building your shop, and I hear contractors are having a hard time getting workers, so you may have some delays. Please leave a comment with any questions, or if you have any ideas on what to build on the inside!
Let me know what you think in the comments!

I didn't mention the cost of the asphalt drive way because technically its not a cost to build the shop, but its something you may need when considering a shop. I paid $20k for all new asphalt driveway to the shop and replace the existing driveway to the house. You may also want to consider a rock around the perimeter and landscaping, otherwise it looks terrible. Click the link below to watch my previous video about the new driveway:

Thank you for the thorough breakdown!!!
This is so informative for anyone looking at cost info for a shop build.
I hope people find it helpful
finally a great video with good numbers right on boss trying to get like you
So many great tips. Thanks for saving us time and money!
Hopefully it helps anyone that’s interested in building a new shop in today’s world. Prices on materials have gone up a lot since 2019.
What a beautiful work shop. Thank you for sharing the build cost on a new shop.
Thank you. I love it
Chris, I’m so proud of you. You did a fantastic job on the building and this video is informative and interesting.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it!
@@backyarddad1544 where r u from?
Great video like always! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you. I’m glad you liked it!
Gives us an idea for a our future project. Keep them coming!
I’ll do a tour video in a couple weeks
Thank you for sharing.
Wow! I’m in Arkansas and just got a quote for a 40x50 turn key is 62,000.
who did you go with? as for me i am solo no experience so i will have to hire someone for the entire build and cement I will be having it put up in mosuri
great video Dad, this is by far the best one!!!
Comprehensive explanation of all the costs not just net
Thank you! I figured this would be helpful to others looking into building a shop because I couldn’t get a straight number on how much everything would cost at the end of the build and all that would be needed.
Awesome build! I enjoy the videos. Keep it up!
Appreciate it!
I built a 40x60x16 garco metal building w/ a 3:12 pitch. I used the thin foil insulation inside which I scored for about 90% off (reflectix). Did the excavation myself on the slab and permitted it as I was able to borrow a backhoe for a year. I took out a $25k loan and did the rest out of savings - it took me a year to get it done once started. All in just under $50k including electrical which I dug a 200' trench and ran 200 amp aluminum for power to an existing 225amp service. I bought my own manlift to run wiring inside and install the rollup doors. I was fortunate to get the building erected for $7500. The concrete work and labor to do the slab cost about $14k, which included the pump truck. This was about 60 yards. Building package was $22k at the time (2015) w/ two 13' rollup doors and a single man-door. For 2022 I think you did really good at $111k to get this thing up and nearly done. I stubbed out the bathroom for my shop but haven't finished it 7 years later. I am in Northern California. The final product turned out pretty good. I installed 8000 watts of solar on the roof which feeds the main panel that is shared to our home. What drives me crazy is that at one time, I could put six vehicles inside. Today I can't get more than 3 inside with kids bikes, mowing equipment, etc. I might convert part of the barn to an ADU at some point as I am in California for my business.
The space fills up so fast. I already wish I made mine bigger!
@@backyarddad1544 yep, wish I had the funds then for 50x80.
Thanks for posting this video. I had no idea how much it cost to have a metal building put up. I'm so glad I do the work myself. It takes a little longer but no debt.
It’s worth waiting so you don’t have to carry the debt. We did the same thing.
Cost of materials in the estimates I was getting was around 100k. And the total price for the building was 225k. 60x80x16. Labor is outrageous.
Nice breakdown
Good info., thank you
Great job breaking that down
Thanks. It’s probably the best video on TH-cam right now!
Thanks for the info appreciated!
Of course. Glad you liked it!
Thanks for breaking out the cost. Your workshop looks great. Can you do a walkthrough video of your workshop?
Thank you! Ive been waiting to do a walkthrough video until I had it built out inside... But its taking a lot longer than I thought, so I might just do a walkthrough the way it is! Thank you for watching!
Very informative and eye opening. I built a 40x60x12 in 2018 and spent around 75k. I also did the foam and HIGHLY recommend it. My foam was $9600 for 3" ceiling and 2" wall. I did not do bathroom. And doesn't include electrical as I did it myself.
The foam is a night and day difference!
That’s amazing, I know it’s hard to bring projects in at estimated cost. With the price rise of materials. I think you did pretty good. With you doing a lot of things yourself you saved a lot of money. I know my kitchen remodel ran about $10K what was projected. It would be a mistake not to do all you wanted.
Your right, it’s better to do it all how you want it and spend the extra vs paying more down the road to do another one
I build my 40x60 steel building in 1989. $15000 for the building with 2" fiberglass insulation in the ceiling and $2500 to erect it. With the slab, doors, electrical and plumbing, for a bathroom I have about $30 k total in it. Amazing how much things have went up!
I wish prices were still like that
Thanks to Joe Biden prices are thru the roof.
$30k in 1989 is around $70k
Thank you!
Thanks for the break down of costs. I am in SW Virginia and started putting up a 40x60x14 red iron building in the fall of 2019. Because of rain delays, covid, and a lead contractor that became worthless, we finally finished it in the spring of 2021. My costs were similar to yours. Some stuff cheaper, and some stuff more. I think I am at around 100k for mine. Biggest issue I ran into was nobody around me wanted to work. Finding worthy subs was a nightmare. Only god send was the electrician I ended up using. He was awesome and let me help to save money. I put in a 400 amp service, so the big wire and components were expensive.
I started looking at a 60x80x16 in early 2022 and was getting estimates of 225k. I'm in southern Indiana. But finding workers here is just as bad. I can count on my electrician, because I am an electrician and will do all that work myself. But with interest rates rising and the absolute insane price to begin with, I just decided to scrap the idea for awhile.
@@chrisgentry7195 Wow. I can't blame you at that price.
I don’t blame you either. It’s the worst time right now to do anything. I guess everyone is kinda stuck for a little whole
That was a problem here too. Finding workers that wanted to work. This was the time when people were being paid to not have a job so who could blame the workers. I’d rather collect a check doing nothing Instead of working my butt off for the same
Thank you
Great information, how about a shop tour?!? Looks incredible
Thank you. I was waiting to do a tour until the end of summer when I had the inside built out. But just like everything in life, it didn’t go as planned. The interior buildout is on hold for now until I can get some time to do the work. But I will do a tour In the next couple weeks
Thank you!!!!
Of course!
OH MAN... Just about the same size and interior stuff I was looking to build. I was also thinking 65K-70K-ish. YIKES! Suddenly, a short delay... ☹
That’s what I was think when I started looking into building it. Then prices started going through the roof
@12:00 "the money is back in equity". It absolutely is not. You never get your equity in these buildings. It's a great gift for they buyer if you decide to sell.
I have been getting bids on having the exact same shop size installed on my new property. I am so sorry to tell you, Slab and metal building, same doors etc, grand total around $50K now. So yeah prices have came down. I am however now looking into a pole barn with a local lumberyard rough cut lumber. They are saying I can do it for half the cost. May be the area (southern GA) as to why we are cheaper, more poor folks here I guess. Concrete is only 16K. Plumbing and Electrical I am doing, including interior. All that said. You have a perfect shop sir. Will had huge value to your home.
It was a terrible time to build lol. But at the time, who knew what prices would be like in the future. But thank you for the compliment. I love my building and you’ll be sure happy when you get yours. Hopefully you don’t have delays because of folks not wanting to work or not being able to get supplies. When I poured the slab they were at the beginning of a concrete shortage throughout Texas. Good luck!
That's just about what we paid for the same building in 1999. Crazy.
I'd have to live in that building, just me and my wife. I can do the plumbing, electrical, carpentry myself as I have alot of experience doing all that and I was a licensed electrician. I would go same size but do a pole barn and house, shop would all be under one roof.
That’s a great option! We considered going that route when we were looking at houses here. We probably would have done that if we didn’t find the property we did.
@@backyarddad1544 rent out the house.
@@kipcudd7253 you have to be cool sharing your property with randoms which many people would rather not share the land
Wow! That's a ton of money.
Would have been nice to see the inside ( lights, bathroom, etc.) to compare with your pricing. Nice building. 👍
Thank you. I was hoping to do a part two video this summer with the inside built out. But life got in the way and haven’t completed it yet. So I will do an inside video as it is, here in a week or two.
That's about right except my shop is 40 x 64 with 14 foot sidewalls, insulated, steel inside as well. I also have 440 v, 400 amp 3 phase power bus bars etc.
I built mine back in the 90s however and it came to about 100k.
100k in the 90's ? Wow that sounds like a lot. I'm sure it's nice.
Dude you sound like you’re about to cry when you’re going over the estimate.
When I saw the dollar amount, I started to think about the Trackhawk I had to give up to build this shop! LOL
@@backyarddad1544 worth it asf
Building at the top of the stock market bubble, top of the real estate bubble, and top of the building materials bubble does not equate to sustainable $1 for $1 increase in equity. You will likely lose the entire value of the building in equity over the next 2 years as the bubble deflates. But hey you will have a nice building! Cheers!
Great info! I wonder if making this bigger (width and height) for a home, would the price double?? Two bedroom and two bathroom!
The size is actually pretty big inside. 2400 sf. And it’s tall enough to do 2 story. But if you want to do one story it wouldn’t be too much more to go a little bigger. I don’t think it would cost too much more to go bigger.
Nice place you have there. I'm in Houston, Is there any room for me and my wife up in Tyler? lol City life is killing me.
We moved here to get away from the big city. Tyler is small town living with big city convenience. It has a lot of growth right now but still a lot of room for growth. Hopefully it doesn’t grow too big though.
Did you buy your land first before you started this project?
Are you going to do video on what it looks like on the inside ?
Yes I am. I wanted to get it all set up on the inside before doing the inside tour. I can never get to it, so I may just do a quick video to show the interior now, and then another video whenever I complete the interior set up.
Thank you for this video, question for you concerning the Insulation I know some metal buildings you can buy/pay for Insulation to be added I believe it's just a sheet membrane that they install. Did you do that as well and can be close cell foam insulation be sprayed on the top of that or did you have your sprayed directly to the matter. Definitely want Insulation just trying to figure out best way to have it applied/installed
I didn’t have the membrane on the panels so I’m not sure if you can do the foam on top. But a couple inches of just the closed foam on the walls and ceiling seem to be sufficient. I don’t think having that extra insulation would make much of a difference. I’m very Impressed with just using the spray foam, even in this hot Texas heat!
@@backyarddad1544 yes I'm in Dallas right now 41 days of over 100° weather and I know you're just east of us. The new garage we will be building similar to your size will be in the mountains in North Carolina highest temperature so far is 70° on the property, and like yourself not wanting to be trapped inside in the winter time and want a place to piddle and work
Thank you Chris for the information! Contacted a local metal builder and got the prices for an 40x60 and 40x80. Plan to have some living space on it since the building in going to be in a land preservation property that I own to try to imptove our local enviroment an habitat for deer and turkeys. I am very close to retirement and enjoy the outdoors and keeping active. Soo de questios is: Do I go with the 40x60 which I like base on what Isaw in your video, or 40x80. Thanks again
The 40x60 is a great size, but it fills up quickly. I wanted to use it for storage, a workshop area for working on cars and projects, a rec area for the kids to play, and a bar area for hanging out. I will end up building a walled off carport off of the side so I can store my yard equipment and park my truck. I think it will be perfect size once I get some of that stuff out of the shop and into the carport when I build it. So I guess the question is, do you plan on storing a lot of stuff in it? Thanks for watching!
@@backyarddad1544 Thanks! signing the paperwork Monday. 40x60
Congrats!!
Man, that’s what we are looking to build for a small Church we are working on, me and my wife. We live in El Paso and so far the companies I have contacted for a quote haven’t called back. May be a small job for them. Any idea or suggestions would be very appreciated. It probably wont be as high as yours but that’s the dimensions I’m looking at, 40x60. Thanks for the idea on the money spent, God bless you and your family and business.
Ps. Would it be a better time to build now? Blessings.
I think it’s getting hard for contractors to find workers lately. That’s what I’ve heard from a couple contractors around here. But the height wasn’t that much of a difference to go that high. I think it was just a few thousand dollars extra to go that high instead of 12’ walls. I’m so glad I did so I can build a couple bedrooms and storage loft upstairs.
Did you do any of the work yourself as far as out door construction? It is a great looking building, I also favor the 40x60. And here in West Texas think I will be adding a thicker coat to the walls. Wife only wants a small house but said I could have a big shop!
I did all the other projects around the property. And I’ll be building out the inside of the shop this fall. . I just needed to have it built pretty quickly and I didn’t have the time last summer to build it myself. A small house would be great as long as you have a big shop!!
How did you get that lucky to get a wife that will let you have a big shop??? My wife tells me I don't need it.
Serious question. If you can't do any of the plumbing, electrical or literally any other part of the construction, why do you need a shop to begin with? Or is it just a big garage?
2,400 sq Feet = 222.9 sq metres at US$501.21 / sqm or AUD @ .7USD = AU$703.55 / sqm (bit dear) then plus another AU$35,000 for local Council building permits and their other fucked charges.
Yeah they gotta try and get a piece of everything
Exactly what I’m trying to build. What company and where in tx? Im in Houston area
East Texas. The company was bee happy buildings in east Texas. They do travel. I have their info in the description. They are a very reputable builder for mueller
Very informative. What state or city?
Thanks! It’s in Tyler Texas.
Nice!, how much did your property taxes increase by?
Not mych
no way would I have paid that much. during the price hike of lumber not realistic. I would have waited a couple years.
$112K is not that bad for what you got.
It is definitely worth it
I am still waiting for a comment back on how high your walls are with this building. Please comment back. Thank you for this video looking to do the same size. But I need to know how high your walls are because I want to go the highest that I can. So I can put a Loft up in the please let me know thank you
Sorry that I didn’t reply to this message. I thought I did. But just looking at comments and see that I didn’t. Not sure if it’s still helpful to you or not, but they are 14’ sidewalls.
@@chrismoore9528 Yeah, I would want at least 18 to 20 foot walls. For my building
Wow. Great building. However the price you paid you could have built 2 of them. Almost 3 if you did it yourself 😆
That’s very true
so you just watched and did nothing yourself, thats pathetic
Thanks for the kind comment!
That's awesome you were able to just watch, congratulations!
@@backyarddad1544 lol I do almost everything myself because I can't stand how much things cost. But the older I get, the more financially stable I am, and I just want to leave for work and come home and see progress. Doing nothing is an awesome luxury I wish I had! So I envy anyone that is able to do that.
nothing wrong with that at all, if you have the money; its better than trying to do all that hard work yourself. I am going to do the same very soon. Putting a $120k budget in place to hire a slew of contractors to get the job done!
What is the highest wall that people could get with a metal building? Please come and back and let me know. This building looks real. Nice me myself. I would only need one big overhead door so I can get a motor home in it. Thank you for this video. It opened up my eyes on purchasing one
Thank you
