How It Works
Our 5-Step Build Process
From first call to finished garage — here’s what to expect.
Free Consultation & Site Visit
We visit your property, discuss your needs, review setback requirements and HOA guidelines, and recommend the right size and placement. No pressure, no obligation.
Design & Permits
We create engineered plans that match your home’s architecture, then handle the entire permitting process with the city or county. You don’t have to deal with any of it.
Site Prep & Foundation
We grade the site, set forms, and pour a reinforced concrete slab foundation engineered for your soil conditions and garage size.
Framing, Roofing & Exterior
Walls go up, trusses are set, roof is shingled, siding and trim installed to match your home. Garage door(s) and side entry door installed.
Final Inspection & Walkthrough
We schedule the final building inspection, walk you through everything, and hand over your new garage — ready to use and ready for you to finish the inside however you want.
