"Cal Patton is THE ABSOLUTE BEST. The work he did remodeling my garage into a studio apartment was done with quality workmanship, professional care, and great communication. Now, two years later, I am adding a bathroom and had some questions. Cal answered my texts and calls immediately and, even though he had several other projects going on, he literally jumped in the car and came to advise another contractor to set him straight. (I wish Cal could be doing the bathroom addition but he was booked currently.) I highly recommend Cal. He's got your back, he is a true pro, and a great human being."

"Ascend did a great job painting our high ceiling foyer. The contractor, Blake, was flexible with his time and stopped by to assess the area and give us an accurate quote. He pays great attention to detail and made sure it met his standards. Prior to starting the job he made sure to clearly explain what exactly would be painted. Highly recommend this company for any renovation needs."

"It was a pleasure to work with Eric, we hired him for a complete backyard renovation which included tree removal, leveling the surface and place pavers and a deck on top. Also built a retaining wall. The work came out very nice in part because of the great design ideas that Eric gave us. The project ran into some unexpected issues that Eric was able to overcome nicely. We were impressed how Eric handled the project and met all the deliverables, also his team was extremely polite an professional. Our backyard now looks like the ones advertised in magazines. All this led us to start a new project with him to replace the cracked driveway with nice new pavers."

FAQs for garage building service projects in Richmond, CA

Building a garage requires a timeline of six to eight weeks from the permit approval stage until final finishes are installed. This period covers obtaining permits, procuring materials, and the actual construction. Delays in material shipments, contractor scheduling, or permit processing can extend the build time. The overall project timeline is also influenced by the garage’s size and design complexity, such as whether you’re adding a living space. 

Building a garage with a living space, like a suite or apartment, costs $125 to $250 per square foot in addition to the cost of the garage. This adds another $60,000 to $270,000 to the total project cost and includes the design, enhanced finishes, specialized plumbing, and electrical work needed for a functional apartment or suite.

Prefab garage kits can be a cost-effective solution for basic storage needs, with prices ranging from $4,000 to $11,000 (excluding labor and permits). However, they may not add significant value to your home and might not last as long as a custom-built garage. For long-term value and durability, investing in a custom garage is the better choice.

A garage is a fully enclosed structure with walls, a roof, and a locking door. It often includes electricity, insulation, plumbing, and HVAC. A garage offers secure, sheltered parking and can increase your home's value. A carport is a semi-open structure with a roof (and sometimes walls) that provides basic protection from the elements. However, it is less secure and has less impact on the value of the home.

Concrete flooring is the most popular option for a garage. It offers an extremely durable and low-maintenance surface that withstands the weight of vehicles and heavy items. Concrete provides a solid base for additional treatments and serves as an excellent foundation if homeowners choose to upgrade the appearance or convert the space for alternative uses.
