"Remodel went great! Izabela, Wally, and their crews are all very professional and do excellent work. We had already used Chicagoland Remodel for a bathroom remodel and there was no need to look any further when it came to the kitchen. Our project was unique because we live in a loft building that was once a factory. The layout is unique and the team worked with us to make everything just how we want. Walls were taken down, plumbing and gas lines rerouted, cabinets installed, lighting, and more was all done perfectly. We will use again when it comes to our future projects!"

"I have been working with Joe and his Company for about 2 years now. I met him originally on one of my first flip homes in the Des Plaines area. He came on time with his Electrician, HVAC Tech, Plumber, and his carpenters to formulate a working bid on the spot. I was impressed with that from the start. They impressed me as professional and ready to work. <br />   <br /> Since that initial meeting, Joe and the guys have completed several flip homes for me in the Des Plaines, Niles, Morton Grove, Skokie area. They have always been extremely quick with a very high level of Joe's attention to detail. Joe likes to walk through the projects and put the finishing touches on himself as he is very concerned about the final product.  <br />   <br /> Thrifty Nickel did a town home for me in Melrose Park that took only17 days from the time I closed on the purchase to when it was re-listed for sale. Unreal ! The first people through the door madean offer too. That home was a complete Kitchen, Baths and basement was unfinished. In 17 days they finished the basement framing and electrical, Installed new electrical service at the panel, carpeted the home, refinished the wood floors, made the 3 season room a permanent room in the home, did all the tile and trim work, painted the entire home and garage, stained the deck, installed new garage door, Roofed the garage, repaired some siding on the home, Did all the landscaping, Painted the entire interior, customized trim to really make the flooring pop, installed all the appliances in the new kitchen, ran ducting for new fans, etc, etc, etc......... If someone would have seen this foreclosure, they would not have believed 17 days later it would be a stunning new property. <br />   <br /> That is the level of service I grew to expect and was never disappointed by Joe and the guys. The phones are always answered promptly and they tend to my needs in a very expeditious fashion. <br />   <br /> Being a high volume, rapid turn business, I base my business model off the performance of my contractors. I have never had any problems with performance, communication, or level of quality. <br />   <br /> I buy foreclosures and gut them to the studs. Joe and his team come in and turn them into beautiful homes with high end finishes that sell quickly. They perform every aspect of the job and coordinate any outside services. I tell them what I want, and its done. <br />   <br /> I have , and will continue to refer them to everyone I know who needs the services of Thrifty Nickel Handyman. If you are ever in a pickle, Call Joe at Thrifty Nickel !!!  Thanks, Joe. <br />"

"His responsiveness was really refreshing. We called the receptionist, and she provided cell phone numbers if they were not near them. It was never, "they are not in." The owner, Don, also was great with communicating with us. They also gave us, in writing, a step by step of the garage build. They structured the payments as they went along with the build. We felt like they were never to busy for us."

"Our sales rep Gary was very helpful. When I met with him about the garage, he mentioned they also do general concrete work. They got us prices quickly on two different options for the concrete layout for the driveway and a garage that would match the house nicely. I feel as a combo we got a great price. <br /> They got all of the permits and handled the inspections. The work was scheduled to when it best worked for us and the had the concrete work done in 3 days, and once it cured built the garage in 2 days. Everything looked great and passed all inspections for the village. Nice doors on the garage and they mounted the ight fixture that i selected to match the house. <br /> We will use them again probably doing another driveway next month. <br />"

FAQs for garage building service projects in Richmond, IL

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.
