Garages with workshops in Fenelon Falls

Fenelon Falls is a village of storey-and-a-half houses on compact lots. A big double garage often will not fit, but a single-car garage with a workshop wing can: parking on one side, and a bright room with a workbench and shelves on the other.

White clapboard, a shingle roof and a window box make it look like part of the village rather than an add-on.

Rules for garages in Fenelon Falls

Under the Ontario Building Code, an accessory building larger than 10 square metres needs a building permit. The City of Kawartha Lakes sets the size, height and setback limits. On small lots, coverage limits can decide how big the building can be, so we measure first. Homes near the river or lakes may need a Kawartha Conservation permit.

Planning the workshop

A woodworking shop needs dedicated circuits for the saw and dust collection, good light and wall space for lumber. We plan those before framing so the shop works from the first day.

Matching the village street

Fenelon Falls has a clear village look. Simple gable roofs, clapboard or board-and-batten, and white or soft colours help a new garage blend in. We take cues from the house and the neighbours so the garage feels like part of the street.

A shop for winter projects

Village owners in Fenelon Falls often spend the winter building furniture, fixing canoes or restoring a snowmobile. An insulated shop wing with a small heater, a solid bench and a window for daylight turns those months into project season, while the car stays warm in the bay next door.

My project started before the pandemic. Work was about 30% complete and going well. The pandemic hit me a bit financially which stressed me out about the project. The Henley team helped reverse engineer and descope some of the project to suit my new affordability. They handled this with class and professionalism which im sure created extra work for them. Communication was excellent and finished product is fantastic. I will never work with or recommend another contractor again
