When homeowners start planning a new garage, one of the most common questions we hear is: “Can I build my new garage with brick?” The answer is simple — absolutely, yes!

A brick garage can be a timeless and durable choice that adds both beauty and value to your property. Whether your home already features brick or you simply love the look, we can design a new garage that complements your home’s exterior perfectly.

Matching the Existing Home Exterior

If your home is brick, we’ll work closely with you to match the color, texture, and pattern of your existing brick as closely as possible. This creates a seamless connection between your house and your new garage, making it look like it’s always been there.

Even if a perfect match isn’t available, we can use paint or custom finishes to bring everything together visually. A painted brick garage offers the classic character of brick with the flexibility to match or contrast your home’s design.

Repurposing Brick from Your Original Garage

In some cases, we can even reuse brick from your original garage if it’s in good condition. Salvaging and repurposing older brick not only adds character and authenticity to your new build, but it’s also an environmentally conscious way to preserve a piece of your home’s history.

Why Choose Brick for Your New Garage?

Brick offers a number of advantages, including:

  • Long-lasting durability – Brick stands up to Chicago’s harsh weather, from freezing winters to hot summers.
  • Low maintenance – It won’t rot, warp, or require frequent repainting like other materials.
  • Timeless appeal – Brick architecture never goes out of style and adds instant curb appeal.

Bringing Your Vision to Life

Every garage we build is custom-designed to complement your property and meet your specific needs — whether that means matching your home’s exterior materials, adding architectural details, or including modern features like attic storage or a workshop.

If you’ve been wondering whether brick is an option for your new garage, the answer is a confident yes. We can help you explore design options, match or paint the brick to blend beautifully with your home, and even reuse original materials when possible.
