"They went above and beyond. They treated my house like it was theirs. They wouldnâ t just put my roof on but they checked to make sure it was ok to put the new shingles on.

"Kirk redid our bathroom (shower, toilet, floor and exhaust fan). He listened to what you wanted, only gave his input when asked and was honest, which I appreciate. He would make a suggestion on things we didn’t even consider and he was not pushy about it and let you decide. Once they started the work, we were able to make the shower bigger which I was happy about but this made for a little extra time since he needed to order a new shower door and grab bar. He offered to put shower rod so we could use but we had another shower. This is someone who cares. Also, Walter and his crew were amazing. On time, professional and cleaned everything up. We will be using Kirk again when we redo our full bathroom. Thanks Kirk, Walter and crew. We are enjoying our shower. It was a pleasure working with you."

The timeline for a garage remodel varies significantly based on project scope, contractor availability, and permit processing times. Simple cosmetic updates might be completed in a few days, while full conversions to living spaces could take several weeks or longer.
Weather conditions, material availability, and unexpected structural issues can all affect completion timelines. Working with experienced professionals and securing necessary permits early can help keep your project on schedule.
Converting a garage into a living space can be worthwhile if you need an additional functional area and don't require the garage for vehicle storage. The value added depends on your local housing market, the quality of the conversion, and neighborhood norms. In areas with limited parking, eliminating garage space might negatively impact resale value. Consider consulting a local real estate professional to understand how such a conversion might affect your home's marketability in your specific area.
Most substantial garage remodels require permits, especially when changing the structure's purpose, modifying electrical systems, adding plumbing, or converting to living space. Permit requirements vary by location, so check with your local building department before beginning work.
Proceeding without required permits can result in fines, complications during home sales, and potential safety issues. Many contractors can assist with the permit application process and ensure work meets local building codes.
You can reduce garage remodel costs by handling simple demolition work yourself, shopping for materials during sales, repurposing existing features, and obtaining multiple contractor quotes. Consider tackling straightforward tasks like painting while leaving specialized work to professionals. Phasing your project over time can help manage cash flow while maintaining quality standards. Investing in proper insulation and durable materials often proves cost-effective long-term by improving energy efficiency and reducing maintenance needs.
