"I thought about an addition for several years; then interviewed and received bids from about 6 companies. I wanted a workroom with: * built-in storage cabinets and desk * space for the washer, dryer, freezer, and sauna. * ample space for my projects JB Construction’s bid was reasonable and fair. Joe is professional, honest, responsive, and easy to work with. He finds and hires quality subcontractors, and I am impressed with the work that was completed on my addition. He is hands-on, was involved in the process, and checked in often as the work progressed. He actually did quite a bit of the work himself. I really appreciated how Joe suggested improvements that I never would have thought of. These included enlarging the space from 280 to 320 sq ft, adding a sun tunnel when the skylight wouldn’t work with the roof line, a built-in cabinet where a window was removed, an exterior electrical outlet, and an overhead light in the corner cupboard. Joe was able to salvage and reuse the old brick on the front of the addition. This, along with the two original windows integrated the addition seamlessly with the rest of the house. It was done so perfectly; neighbors have asked where the addition was built. I’m extremely picky and am thrilled with my new addition. It’s lovely, functional, and my preferred room in my house. Joe has a lot of repeat customer jobs and I can see why. This was a great experience and I’m glad I went with him. I plan to use JB Construction for future projects and recommend him to everyone I know."

"I recently had some construction work done by Cross Construction , and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team was fast and efficient, completing the project on time without sacrificing quality. Daniel, my main point of contact, was exceptional. He stayed in contact with me throughout the entire experience, ensuring I was always aware of the progress and any updates. The workers were professional, respectful, and clearly skilled in their craft. They took the time to answer my questions and address any concerns I had. The final result exceeded my expectations, and I appreciate the attention to detail they demonstrated. I highly recommend Cross Construction for any construction needs—great service and outstanding results! I will be using them to complete the rest of my home renovations!"

"Cannot recommend them enough. Dave and his son are both very professional and easy to work with. Explained what we were looking for in our basement remodel and they worked with us to get exactly what we wanted for a reasonable cost. Quality of work is fantastic, and stuck to the original timeline perfectly. Dave checks in everyday to make sure everything's progressing which is very appreciated especially having worked with other contractors in the past who are extremely difficult to get ahold of. Very satisfied with all aspects, and would recommend to everyone."

Been in the handyman field for a while with some experience in deck building, siding, trim(interior and exterior), backsplash and tile work as well. Ive done some plumbing and garage door services and now for full time I build high end metal building! Quality and ingenuity is always in mind so you or the next customer loves their long term project!

Tiles in place and ready for grout. Adjustable fixtures were put in to maintain proper spacing with the new thicker backsplash

"Perfect. I enjoyed getting to sit in the storm shelters at their showroom to help with size selection. After signing up for the install, they connect you to an online portal to manage the contract and to update building permit number, etc. Installation was prompt and clean."

"I contacted Nick regarding my need to have drywall installed for one entire floor of a house. He had his drywall guy, Jeramy, come give me a estimate and talk me through the job. Jeramy was very professional and really easy to work with. Once they started the job, Jeramy communicated clearly and often about the status of the job, schedules for progress, and arrival times at the house. He and his guys were very neat and careful and minimized mess and impact while they worked even when it necessitated carrying sheet rock through the house to the 3rd story. Throughout the process Nick continued to communicate as needed to ensure everything went smoothly. The job took a little longer than expected due to the quirks of it being a very old house and lots of strange angles and corners, but they communicated and coordinated well to make it happen. A couple extra days was no problem and well worth it for the amazing attention to detail and high quality work that they did. I highly recommend them and would definitely hire them again."

FAQs for garage building service projects in Independence, MO

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.
