General Contractors with over 30 years combined experienced servicing WV. We do anything construction related. From New Homes to Handyman tasks. Liscensed and Insured.
"ABC Remodeling is a very conscientious company that takes pride in their work. I have never met a contractor that stands behind their work and does what they say they are “going” to do. There is no drama, no messiness, and when there are delays, I was told well in advance. There were no surprises with this company. Andrew is reliable and doesn’t pull any punches. He was upfront and honest about all costs and timeframes. His work speaks for itself. Working with a budget, he helped me to prioritize items in a cost-effective way. I appreciate how he explained my project and kept me updated in a more than timely manner. Thank you ABC for the great job you did on my rehab project."

All phases of building renovation and remodeling, 5 employees. No sub contractors. Charges by the job or the hour depending on the job.
"Mr. Mike and Doug Kinsley did an excellent job building a new bathroom in our attic and tiling the bathtub/shower in our other bathroom. We had an attic with no existing plumbing or floor and they were able to build an excellent bathroom for us (about 14 x 7). They were professional and the work was high quality. We recently had a small issue from the bathroom installation and Mike came out and fixed it for us. He really took great care of us. I would recommend them to anyone and would hire them again without question."

Our commitment to customer satisfaction in every step of each individual project, from beginning to end, puts us above the rest.
"Brian came over after we had talked with several contractors about a concrete porch underside (in basement room) and one of those contractors made us think the concrete was in such a bad state of "imminent failure" that it needs a full replacement.So, while we continued to get quotes for a full replacement, we also asked a retired architect friend to give his opinion. He did not think concrete was so bad and he was glad we were having a structural engineer (Brian) coming over a few days later. Brian explained why he did not think the concrete was in need of full replacement (very expensive!) and also the damage was not a foundation/structure integrity issue (not "imminent failure"). We had spoken to several contractors and the cost to fully replace is upwards of 15-20 thousand dollars. From the state of the concrete, Brian did not believe the "symptoms" warranted a full replacement and that the more likely issue was simply that we never "sealed" the concrete with epoxy (and only painted the concrete porch). Given the sky-rocketing costs to do any home repairs, it seems more reasonable for us to do first level repair (not replace) that Brian suggests. Brian's honest and informative consultation (for free!!!) is piece of mind and a HUGE savings. We greatly appreciate Brian coming over to educate us - on his own dime. We will definitely ask Brian to come over again if/when we think we need an honest assessment of our home foundation needs."

Converting a garage is worth it because it can significantly increase your home's value while providing additional living space for your family or guests. Adding a bedroom or bathroom enhances your property's appeal to potential buyers, and creating a guest suite or apartment can even generate passive rental income while you still own the house.
A garage conversion can take between two and six weeks for the construction work, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Before construction begins, you need to secure the proper building permits and hire a contractor. Keep in mind that contractors are often in high demand and might schedule several weeks out. If your garage conversion is extensive or involves significant structural changes, the timeline could extend to eight weeks or more. For attached garages, the proximity to your living space may cause some disruption during construction.
To make your garage livable, at a minimum, you need to insulate the walls, add in legally required egress windows, install flooring, put up drywall, and add in air conditioning and heating. If you intend to use the space as a bedroom, office, bathroom, or kitchen, you will need to consider additional electrical and plumbing needs.
A garage conversion counts as living space when it meets certain criteria. The converted garage must be attached to your home and include permanent features like proper insulation, finished walls and ceilings, and adequate ventilation. It should be suitable for year-round living, with heating and cooling systems to maintain comfortable temperatures in all seasons. Meeting these standards allows the converted space to be included in your home's total square footage, potentially increasing its value.
In most cases, you do not need to hire an architect for a garage conversion. An experienced garage conversion contractor usually has the skills to help create your desired design and ensure the project meets building codes. However, if your conversion involves complex structural changes or a large-scale redesign, hiring an architect can be beneficial. An architect can provide detailed plans and oversee the design to maximize space and functionality, ensuring the conversion aligns with your vision and complies with all regulations.
