I have the new home about to close (in about a week or two). Today I did
measurements of the house. To my surprise the overall depth on the side

with
the garage is one foot short. It turns out the builder made the garage

depth
one foot less than the plan/spec (23' depth x 22' width but now it is
22x22). I have the furnace, water heater and a chest freezer along the
inside. My extended size vehicle will still fit but very tightly. During

the
planning/contracting I specifically told him I want 23x22 because of my
extended car and it is marked on the floor plan drawing. WTF he wanted

make
it 1' less!!! How much he would save on the cost by cutting that 1'!!! But

I
guess I don't have much to do with it, house is nearly completed. I kept
watching the jobsite from time to time but it still screwed me over.


Is the garage connected to the house from an inside door? With that extra
foot you could walk around your vehicle to get something with out going
outside. I think I would be really pist about it. Can they bump the door out
maybe?
