"Construction Masters just finished building an additional room in my home as well as building a bathroom from scratch. I am completely blown away! I had very specific plans when it came to this room addition and new bathroom. They met and exceeded all of my expectations. If you’re planning any kind of construction in your home and you want a company that is respectful, skilled, and timely you should give them a call. My house has become my dream home. I'm really enjoying it!"

"My mother has a great passion for gardening and also making the lawn beautifully decorated. She insisted on Stonework for the lawns, but I wasn't sure about it. At that time I came across an advertisement for Platinum Home Builders. The finishing they gave left my mother awestruck."

"Any kind of major construction or renovation work is alway a daunting prospect. Our first interactions with DT design & build INC were for a modification to an existing carport that needed to be brought up to code. While DT design & build INC was not the most affordable quote, they were definitely fair. After we had a favorable experience working on this project with DT design & build INC, and their project supervisor Tal, we decided to hire them to build a master-bathroom for our house and to design and build an ADU/apartment and dance studio on our property. This was a pretty long, and involved process. But in the end, I was very happy with the outcome. I enjoyed working with Tal, and developed a close friendship with him and his crew over the course of the project. I withheld my review of this company until I saw what kind of follow up service they provided. As we rented out our ADU, there were some minor issues that needed to be addressed. Tal was good about getting back to us and addressing the things that needed to be dealt with. I would feel confident recommending DT design & build INC to any friends that are looking for a reliable construction company."

"America Green Builders helped us renovate our new house. Moshe and Mike helped us assess what they could do to improve the house and put our own personal touches on it. Our projects included removing the floors on the first floor, re-leveling the subfloor and installing new flooring (including removing and reinstalling the kitchen cabinets) building out the basement with a separate laundry and closet area and entertainment center; building a mudroom off the front door; finishing the garage and installing insulation and HVAC, electrical upgrades, and installing new decking on the terrace. Throughout it all, Moshe and Mike were professional and dependable. They worked hard to meet our timing goals and were easy to communicate with, and best of all were trustworthy partners with us. Highly recommend AGB."

"Pacific Ocean Builders kept on top of all the sub-contactors and kept me informed every bit of the way. The final result was a beautiful kitchen. All the workers from Pacific Ocean Builders to the sub-contractors were experienced, very professional and respectful. I would recommend Pacific Ocean Builders to anyone. You will not be sorry. Erez from Pacific Ocean Builders were exceptional and she got me through it all. We never knew anyone who was more customer oriented. He kept on top of every aspect of the job and kept us informed. It was a pleasure dealing with him..))"

FAQs for garage building service projects in Santa Monica, CA

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.
