"I called Construction Masters to come out and give me a quote on converting my garage to an ADU. Mickey came out to take a look and measure. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the laws regarding codes and permits. He asked me questions and then made suggestions for the layout and walked me through the process After receiving the proposal, we decided to go ahead and I was very happy with my decision. Throughout the process, he was very responsive and came everyday to check on the progress and instruct the workers. The end result was even better than expected and completed before schedule. Thank you Construction Masters."

"I would suggest Bob and Nicole. We hired Platinum Home Builders to complete a difficult project that included moving and relocating a 100-year-old Douglas home, pouring a new foundation, and installing a new floor plan and a completely developed basement. I would go into more detail, but I believe the most important thing we learned was how much we trusted Platinum Home Builders to do the correct thing and make the right judgments."

"We used Mike and MF Construction a couple of years ago to remodel our kitchen. Everything went smoothly then, and we still love our kitchen, so when it came time to convert our garage into an office we called Mike. We are just as happy this time. Mike listened to our plans and made suggestions. He asked good questions to make sure we were going to get what we wanted. The main workers on our job, Luis and Jose, were great. They are very experienced and were easy to talk to and ask questions. Mike would come by just about every day, and and check on the progress, and fill us in on what to expect."

"I recently completed my home remodeling project with HIC Builders, and my overall experience has exceeded my expectations. Avi, in particular, showcased extensive knowledge and was an absolute delight to collaborate with throughout the process. The team excelled in providing precise estimates for both budget and timeline. Despite minor setbacks due to city-related delays, they made sincere efforts to compensate for lost time. Having undertaken multiple projects in the past, I can confidently state that this has been the most gratifying working relationship I've had with a contractor. Without a doubt, I plan to engage HIC Builders again for my future projects."

"Stop your search now, you've found the contractor you should go with, you will not be disappointed! This is the second project I've had Ben and his team do at my house and they knocked it out of the park again. This time around they remodeled two bathrooms and put in a new hall closet. They were rock stars throughout the entire project. There wasn't a single time that any reasonable request I made was denied. This was a huge load off my shoulders when dealing with such permanent decisions that comes with bathroom remodels. They were very patient and understanding as I ran into several supply issues that were out of my control during the project as well. It's very obvious that he's had years of experience with construction. His attention to detail and his forethought allowed my wife and I to rest easy knowing that they would always be able to bring up potential issues as well as offer us solutions to issues that we were going to run into many steps down the line."

If you open your garage manually, you don’t need sensors. If you have an automatic garage door opener, sensors are required by law. The federal law UL 325 mandates that all residential garage door openers in the U.S. must include sensors. Designed to prevent accidents and reduce the risk of entrapment, the sensors should be able to reverse the motion of the garage door within two seconds of detecting an obstruction. The sensors are there to keep you, your family, and your belongings safe from a door that might otherwise come down too hard or too fast.
Garages are often equipped with lighting, electrical boxes, and sometimes even heating and cooling, while carports rarely have utilities.
