        "text": "Constructing a detached metal garage typically takes between four to eight weeks once site work begins, though overall project length depends on pre-construction steps. Permitting reviews, custom steel manufacturing, and site engineering usually take four to six weeks prior to breaking ground. Once permits are issued, the on-site sequence moves quickly: site excavation and concrete foundation work take about one to two weeks, concrete curing takes roughly a week, and steel framing and metal panel erection take another one to two weeks. Severe weather or delays in utility trenching can extend this timeline.",
