"Absolutely awesome. Easy to work with and fair. Mcqueen construction was one of several contractors I contacted for a bid. There were two contractors I felt comfortable with and confident that the result would be good. (Fingers crossed). For some reason I felt Scott would be someone I felt comfortable with and could work with. They removed my 20+ year old deck and spent 2 days shoring up the superstructure, leveling, measuring, etc. , and came up with some options of how best to install a new trex deck and not waste boards. From then on the work, the effort to complete the job, the willingness to communicate was what I hoped for. The result was great. Couldnâ t be happier and would highly recommend them for any job that requires a contractor."
"Leo was very helpful and quick to respond. We’re happy with how our 2 bathrooms turned out. Project was completed within the time promised. Our only complaint is that the workers did not clean up very well. But overall, we’re satisfied and we’ll use them again."
"I was very concerned when I saw a crack in a support beam in my garage. Brian responded promptly, and pointed out that the damage was years old and that it was not a serious danger. That was an enormous relief. I elected to have a repair done anyway, and he offered far and away the best value, did the job fast and was fantastic to work with."
"We had our deck rebuilt by The AI Construction, and we are extremely happy with the results. Angel and his team were friendly, hardworking, and kept the project moving from start to finish. The craftsmanship is top-notch, and the finished deck is sturdy, beautiful, and exactly what we wanted. If you’re looking for a reliable contractor for a deck project, I highly recommend Angel and his team!"
"I’ve worked with Mike and his team for years on all kinds of projects, and they’ve always been amazing to work with. The quality of their work is top-notch, they stay on budget, and everything runs smoothly from start to finish. Their design sense is excellent and they always manage to get things done right on time. I can’t recommend them enough, truly a reliable, talented, and easy-to-work-with crew."
"Vitally is the man!! Customer service out of this world. Craftsmanship 10/10!! This man is an absolute professional. The tools he is equipped with and the knowledge is astounding. I promise you if you hire him you won't be disappointed. I am so pleased with him. Do not hesitate and you will he writing a review the same as mine! Thank you so much for going above and beyond!"
"Yes, I would hire this company again. They built a 12/16 foot extension which included enlarging a bedroom, adding a new bathroom, putting on a new roof, adding an attic fan, upgrading the electrical, and grading the land around the new build. Great value for your dollar. All the craftsmen are willing to do their best for you. Very pleased with the results."
Most cabinetry made for a garage will have special coatings and finishes built to withstand extreme heat and cold, moisture, pest damage, rusting, and dry rot. However, many homeowners have put their old kitchen cabinets in the garage, added a couple of fresh coats of paint, and use them for a while without too much wear and tear.
A traditional driveway gate isn’t your only option when installing a barricade in front of your driveway. A security gate like a swing gate, double swing gate, bi-folding gate, vertical gate, or pivot gate could work just as well as your driveway gate—if not better for your home depending on which qualities you’re after. Like sliding driveway gates, many of these alternatives work with automatic features that simplify entering and exiting your property.
A prefab, or prefabricated garage, requires far less construction work than one with a foundation and frame, but it’s not nearly as desirable and may not be a worthwhile option. A prefabricated garage won’t be as durable or long-lasting, and it doesn’t provide the same protection for your belongings and vehicles. Plus, you can use a standard garage for more uses—like living space—whereas a prefab garage only serves as a space for storage. Lastly, building a traditional garage will add to your home value, while a prefab garage usually won’t.
A garage counts toward the official square footage of a house if it is considered livable space. For a garage to qualify, it typically needs to be attached to the home and have permanent finishings like proper insulation, finished walls, and ceilings. It must also be livable year-round, which requires adequate heating, cooling, and ventilation. The exact legal requirements for what constitutes living space can vary by location.
A garage extension makes sense if you need more room to work, store your belongings, or park another vehicle. It’s also a smart financial move. As far as the value a garage adds to a home, you can often recoup 75% to 85% of your investment into a garage extension.
