"Tony was a great communicator. We were asking for a custom build fence. We had contacted some of the basic fence companies prior to getting Tony’s name and no one would even quote us. He basically helped design in and pulled the permit for us. The end product was great and we’d recommend."

"It was done in the promised amount of time of 4 weeks. There was a bit of a delay with the township. The workers did outstanding work, the decks they have done in my neighborhood are by far the most beautiful. Everything I requested at the beginning was honored and they came up with a few additional great ideas. I requested that the price not change and it did not. My son was having a deck done at the same time and took pictures so his contractor would model his after my deck. I am very pleased with the outcome and would use them again."

"I would highly recommend Brad Hansen with Breathtaking Homes for any of your home improvement needs. We were extremely happy with our hardwood flooring, bathroom remodel, and tile that we had them do for us. They were reliable, punctual, and loyal to meeting our expectations. We will definitely be utilizing Breathtaking Homes again for future projects in our home."

"So I been longing to get my basement bathroom done and was very skeptical because I wasn’t sure what I wanted and wasn’t sure if it would come out right…so I searched for a contractor only to find Link Brothers home improvement… Again still skeptical about the finishing look so I crossed my fingers and went with them and when I say I was by far the happiest woman beyond measure… The job they performed and the amount of time was amazing I was ecstatic and I am truly in love with my bathroom…. So if you ask me, with hands down I will recommend Link Brothers Home Improvement with no hesitation!!!"

"I totally would recommend this company. Terry and his crew were punctual, neat and professional. They showed up when they were supposed too. The job took a few days to complete and the finished garage looks wonderful. New roof, windows, new doors, power washed cinderblock, painted it and built a stoop to keep the rain water from washing in. Did more than I can remember. Also helped with some things needing attention on the house. They were very polite, and cleaned up afterwards. I definitely would and will call on Diamond State again. Thank you Terry and crew. Great on cost also. Fair and honest."

"Rightway Waterproofing is the company you want to come and waterproof your basement. I had initially set up a job looking for pros through Angie's List. I was contacted by Rightway Waterproofing via phone and email but did not respond as life happens. Well it rained really heavy again in August and I had more water in the basement. I reached out to them on a Friday and Albert contacted me immediately. They were able to come out on Monday to look at my property. Jake was thorough and friendly. He let me know what he thought we needed, explained everything thoroughly and gave us a quote which was completely reasonable. We accepted the bid and work was to commence on Thurs as they had an opening. Work was completed in one day. The area was kept pristine and they did an amazing job. The crew was courteous to my family. I could not recommend them more. I hope to have them out again at some point to finish my basement area as well. Try to keep in mind that during the season of covid many families are looking for ways to make more space in their homes or to have to home projects done. If you are waiting for work to be done just know that it is worth it! Thanks Rightway!!!"

"Major reasons for my frustration:
1.  They said that they had inspected my house and were confident in their ability to put up lights without problems, but on the installation day, they discovered that I have a slate roof and gutter boxes, not metal gutters, which prevented them from installing lights on my roof and gutters.
2.  One of the guys was smoking while putting up and taking down lights.
3.  AC kept telling me to call him so he could re-do my landscaping and fix my balcony railing.  Great, but I never asked for his opinion, and I had just told him that I had JUST re-done all of my landscaping and that my contractor was working on installing a new deck on the balcony so it was not finished yet.  Despite my replies, he kept telling me to call him to work on my house.  
4.  They did not call or email me before coming to take my lights down.  I had out of state company staying with me when they showed up.  I told them that I expected notification before they arrived, and they said that was the last day for take-down.  
5.  They were unable to get the lights off of the balcony railing and recommended cutting them down.  I told them not to cut them, and when I went up and looked at the lights a couple of days later, I was able to easily take them down without cutting them. 
If you want more details, keep reading:
I received an ad for Christmas light installation by Roark Remodeling in the mail.  I went to the website but had some difficulty figuring out if I had submitted everything correctly because I did not receive a confirmation page.  I sent an email through the website, and AC White called me back very quickly.  He and I settled on a date--Saturday, Dec. 6, 2014, in the morning, for the work to be done.  He then explained that I still needed to request an appointment through their website and submit payment that way, and they would email a confirmation to me.  I was a little nervous about paying for service that I hadn't received yet, but did it anyway so I could secure the date for installation.  It was also an inconvenience to have to go back online after having just set a date via the telephone.  But, whatever, I did it.  
AC and his assistant arrived on Saturday, around 10 or 11am.  They called earlier in the morning to give an estimate of when they would arrive, and they were accurate.  Upon walking up to my house, AC told me that they had driven by and already inspected my house, so he was confident that they could put up my lights without any problems.  So, when I asked if the slate tiles and gutter boxes were going to be a problem, I was surprised to hear him say, "Oh, you have a slate roof?  And your gutters are just extensions of the roof and not metal attached ones?"  It turned out that they were not able to put any lights on my roof or on my gutters, as he had initially told me they would.  I sort of figured that they wouldn't be able to, but was disappointed that their "inspection" didn't involve looking at the roof or gutters.  Also, AC's assistant was smoking when they walked up to my house and continued to smoke while installing my lights.  He remained outside the whole time, but I thought it was unprofessional to smoke on my property while working.  Any time there was a question (3), I had to breathe the smoky air.
I was having them install my own lights, rather than provide lights.  They did not tell me that I also needed to provide at least 5 extension cords.  I had always used 2 for previous years but was able to find 2 more outdoor cords, and they wrapped an indoor cord with saran wrap to make it usable outside.  (Safe??)  In the end, the lights looked nice, but I could have easily done that job myself.  Additionally, AC kept telling me all of the ways that he could improve my landscaping and my house...but I never asked for his opinion or assistance.  In fact, I had just explained that I had completely redone all of my landscaping this past summer, and that I LOVE it.  He told me to call him back to fix my balcony railing because it would not meet OSHA standards and was very unsafe.  I reminded him that I was having new deck flooring installed and that my contractor was not finished yet.
In order to schedule the take-down appointment, I had to submit preferred days of the week and times through their website, which I did as soon as I returned from a NYE vacation, and selected Wed or Sat afternoons.  I did not receive a confirmation call or email with a date or time.  I had out of state company staying with me when AC and his smoking companion showed up to take down my lights-on a Sunday afternoon.  They did not call before arriving, and I had to go back inside (had just gotten ready to go to the local park with my goddaughter) to get the box for the lights and cords and to unlock the back yard gate.  I explained that I had expected a call or at least an email before they arrived, and AC answered that this was the last day for taking down lights.  Apparently it was that day or not at all.  
The assistant later knocked on my door, smoking on my back porch, and asked me to come and answer a question.  AC told me that he could not get the lights off of the balcony railing because new deck flooring that had been installed after the lights were up was too close to the bottom of the railing, and he couldn't get the plug out from underneath it.  He offered to cut the lights off and bring a new set next year, when I called him to install lights again next year.  I told him to just leave them up and I would take a look at it later and perhaps have my contractor replace them if needed.  When I looked at the lights a couple of days later, I was able to slide the cord down about two feet and take the lights off without any problems.  (There was no snow on the roof or ground when they came to remove the lights, and it was still daylight, so his view was not obstructed.)  
Overall, the lights looked good and worked all season, but I installed the lights in the same way myself last year.  I was annoyed with AC's repeated recommendation that I call him to "fix things up" or to "re-do my landscaping."  I was frustrated with the smoking and with the lack of attention to detail--the "inspection" that did not inspect what he needed to see, the inability to remove the lights that I then did without a problem a couple of days later.  I would not hire him again, as I could do the job that he did, without the smoking and without the interruption of my visit with friends, and most importantly, without the repeated request to call AC for future business."

FAQs for garage remodeling projects in Dover, DE

A garage apartment represents a valuable addition to your property when properly constructed according to local regulations. The potential benefits include additional living space for family members, rental income possibilities, and increased property value. 

Your specific return depends on local housing market conditions, construction quality, and ongoing maintenance. Consider consulting with a real estate professional regarding potential returns in your neighborhood.

Building a garage apartment requires multiple permits, with basic residential garage permits starting at $74 in most locations. You'll need separate approvals for structural elements, electrical systems, plumbing installations, and mechanical components. 

Many jurisdictions also require specific approval for accessory dwelling units. Contact your local building department early in your planning process to understand all requirements and associated costs.

Converting an existing garage into living space presents an alternative to new construction. The feasibility depends on your garage's structural condition, foundation type, and local zoning regulations. Key considerations include insulation requirements, utility connections, and moisture control. Research local codes thoroughly, as many municipalities have specific requirements for garage conversions.
