"Jason did an amazing job. Our bathroom was in rough shape, and we brought Jason in to completely gut and redo it. It now looks like something that belongs in a spa. He started very close to his original timeline that was laid out. We didn't have weeks go by without any progress, workers were here almost every day. He was able to accommodate some late changes and additions without an issue. The two things that always said it were his dedication to quality, and that he was just as excited to see the finished product as we were."

"When I contacted Nyboer Builders on October 21st, 2015, they agreed to come take a look at the house so that they could get an idea of what I wanted done and then give me a price estimate. Jay met me there a couple of days later and was able to give me an estimate the next day. I had a couple of other companies give me estimates as well, and Nyboer Builders was the best deal around. The following week I signed a contract to have them do the work. They had their guys there the following Monday. These guys were very courteous and were all hard workers. They made sure that their tools, equipment, and supplies were all placed in a manner that wouldn't cause damage to any of the remainder of the house and property. They were quick to start the work. The men worked from morning to dusk each day no matter the temperatures. I have never seen such professionalism displayed in all my years. The respect they had for each other and their customers is seldom displayed in today's society. At the end of the job, they made sure that everything was cleaned up and there were no stray nails remaining. My roof is beautiful. I haven't had any issues with leaks or loose shingles. I was so impressed with this company, that I am thinking about having them do a kitchen remodel for me this summer. I have also recommended them to some of my friends that have been talking about a remodel of their home.

"I was very impressed with T Harvey Construction and his crew. Our contractor was in the middle of the project when he went on leave for a family emergency. We had no one to finish the porch so I contacted T Harvey construction. Even though their schedule was full, he made sure to fit us in on short notice and completed the porch before we had our first baby. His team communicated well with us and did everything in their power to ensure our satisfaction."

FAQs for garage remodeling projects in East Lansing, MI

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.
