"Richard built our home, he worked as a general contractor and did the finished work inside, including the woodworking, wainscoting, and the woodworking for the front of our fireplace. He did a really great job. We found him from another home he had built in Auburn that we saw and we got in touch. He always returned our calls, very good customer service."

Marksman Builders Inc has been building in Placer, Nevada, and El Dorado counties since 1983. We are a fully licensed and insured contracting business. Our specialty is residential construction - custom homes and remodels. We work with local designers to help clients achieve home plans that meet their needs and expectations. We also are glad to give a price quotation on existing plans. Having 37 years of building experience in the Gold Country we realize the special conditions and challenges of construction in the area. We make a commitment to staying up to date on code changes and new technologies within the building industry. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have.
"Over the years I have worked with several contractors/builders and Marksman Builders has been the best. They delivered on every aspect of our complete older home remodel. Last summer we started with just ideas on a piece of paper and Emma and her team worked with the designer, engineer to retain the charm of our older home and give it an open modern look. The entire process from obtaining building permits to the final details were professionally completed within the estimated timeline and budget. As the project took shape we had several change orders that were seamlessly integrated into project. Friends, family, and other building professionals have commented on how “awesome” our new house looks. Marksman Builders is now building a very custom engineered carport and garage for us with the same professionalism and attention to every detail. I was not sure it could even be built given the terrain and larger granite boulders. They simply incorporated the boulders in the build."

"Glenn and his crews built an ADU for me in less than 3 months. His subcontractors were clean, friendly and professional. Their work was exceptional. They worked some of the hottest days of the year in July and August to ensure that the job was done in a timely manner. The job foreman was prompt to ask my opinion and ensure that my wishes were accomplished. The crews were well aware of the regulations for constructing an ADU and met the regulations in a timely manner. All permits were signed in a timely manner, inspections were scheduled in a timely manner and crews were ready and in attendance.

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.
