Garage Building services in Bloomfield
Bloomfield homeowners often have more yard than people expect. Many streets were laid out between the 1910s and the 1940s with single-family colonials, Cape Cods and two-family homes on lots deep enough for a detached garage at the back. Most of those garages are one-car frame buildings with a gable roof, built on a thin slab or just a footing around the edge. After eighty or ninety winters, the slab has cracked, the sill plate has rotted where snow piled against it, and the door opening is too narrow for an SUV. That makes Bloomfield a town of garage replacements: we take the old one down, pour a new slab with footings below frost, and build a wider garage, often two cars where zoning and the yard allow. Near the Watsessing and Bloomfield Center train stations, lots are smaller and a one-car rebuild is more common.

Permits and local rules
Bloomfield reviews garages for zoning and then issues a construction permit under the state code. We did not find the township's garage size and setback rules online, so we check them for your address.
