"We are repeat customers of Dan Johnson after completing a wonderful Bathroom remodel several years ago. Dan and his assistant, PJ, did not disappoint with our Kitchen Remodel. Our plans included rip out an existing wall and build new replacement wall to our spec. Ripped out existing cabinetry and disposed of debris. Stripped existing drywall for electrical work. Drywall installed prior to Kraftmaid Cabinets and appliances installed. Tile backsplash expertly installed. Johnson Home Improvements did all plumbing, including trenching our concrete slab floor to install a water line to the refrigerator ice maker. Provided new exhaust for Over Range Microwave. All trim and painting was completed without any flaws. Thanks Dan and PJ!"

""The design process included lots of discussion about wants and needs for the renovation. We took our time about making decisions, and tried various combinations of material and colors. Everyone was patient. Once construction began, we got regular communication about progress. We were frequently asked if we had any questions or concerns. Answers were always timely. Discovery of an unexpected plumbing problem was dealt with quickly and did not delay construction by more than a day or two. It did add to the cost of the project, but it was worth doing for the overall health of the house. The crew were mindful of protecting the parts of the house not involved in construction and cleaned up each day. Easy to work with this group. Highly recommend Odell.""

"Absolutely fantastic! These guys are the best! Their work was impeccable and looked great. They are very contentious, meticulous, and professional. I made some changes during the job and they were able to accommodate my requests immediately. I would HIGHLY recommend them for any one needing new construction, siding, gutters, or stone work."

FAQs for garage building service projects in Akron, OH

A well‑constructed, properly permitted detached garage adds between $12,000 and $36,000 to a home’s resale value. Buyers appreciate the secure parking, extra storage, and flexible workspace, so appraisers often bump the property’s value accordingly. The exact return depends on the garage’s size, finishes, and how well it matches the main house, but most homeowners see a strong ROI when the build meets local codes and passes inspection.

Yes—once it meets local building codes and you secure the proper permits, a detached garage can be converted into living space. Finishing the interior, adding climate control, and ensuring safe egress effectively increase your usable square footage, though it may not always count toward the official listing. Skipping permits can trigger fines and even force you to undo the work, so always clear plans with your city first.

Most homeowners policies cover a detached garage under the “other structures” provision, but coverage limits vary. Review your declarations page and ask your agent how much protection you have for separate structures. If the limit is lower than the garage’s replacement cost, you can raise it for a modest premium. Confirming the details now prevents headaches if you ever need to file a claim.
