Boat storage garages near Lake Scugog
Living near Lake Scugog often means owning a boat, and storing it every winter. A standard garage is too short and too shallow for a boat on its trailer. A purpose-built bay with a wide, tall door and extra depth keeps it out of the snow and ready for spring.
We add wall shelving and hooks for life jackets, paddles and fishing rods, and leave room to walk around the boat for maintenance.

Rules for garages in Port Perry
Under the Ontario Building Code, an accessory building larger than 10 square metres needs a building permit. The Township of Scugog sets the height and size limits for accessory buildings, which decide how tall a boat door can be. Properties near the lake may be regulated by Kawartha Conservation, and homes in the downtown heritage area can have extra review.

Measuring the boat first
We start with the boat on its trailer: overall length with the tongue, height to the top of the windshield or tower, and width. Those numbers set the bay depth and door size, with room to spare.

Keeping a boat garage dry
Boats come back wet in the fall. A floor drain, good ventilation and insulation help a boat garage stay dry so the boat, the trailer and the gear do not sit in damp air all winter and come out mouldy in spring.

After receiving a few quotes from different contractors to do a full renovation of our kitchen and dining room, we chose Henley because of how comfortable Nick and his team made us feel right from the first conversation.
From start to finish it took just over three weeks for the team to demolish our ugly, dated, and dark kitchen, and fully rebuild a stunning bright and light new space, designed with style and functionality in mind.
The Henley team was very responsive (shout out to Tom and Michelle), and kept us fully informed throughout the project with the Buildertrend app. They uploaded photos and notes to the app daily, so we always knew where the project was at and how things were progressing. We loved the transparency of this, especially not being at home through the reno.
Thank you Henley Contracting for completely transforming our space.
We are so happy with the final results! -
