Don’t Get the Same Kitchen, Bathroom, Basement, or Home as Everyone Else. We don’t believe in copy-and-paste designs, prefabricated shortcuts, or cookie-cutter layouts. Whether you’re updating a kitchen, remodeling a bathroom, finishing a basement, or renovating your entire home, your project is custom-designed to match your taste, your needs, and the way you live. Since 2011, no two spaces we’ve completed have ever been the same. That’s because we take the time to understand your vision and craft a design that’s entirely your own. From bold kitchens and spa-inspired bathrooms to fully finished basements and seamless home remodels, every project is different.

I will not tolerate anything, but quallity from the people, who work for my company. We use just licensed subcontractors. Since we are a small company you will pay less with us.

Chicago garage builders, Garage 4U, Inc. has been building custom garages since 1990. As a family owned and operated small business, service and European craftsmanship allows us to give you - our customer - freedom to choose what you want. Every garage is custom built from first grade materials and we offer a variety of sizes and finishes. No job is too large, no dream is too big. Please call us today for a free estimate. Uses subcontractors for roofing.

"Was the garage built well, overall? Yes. Was everything else a complete mess? Yes. Down payment in April 2021. Project not completed until July of 2022. There were a couple occasions where absolutely nothing was happening for 2 months at a time. Numerous messages unreturned or returned very late, sometime until threats of getting a lawyer. At some point the excuse was covid, an other it was a death in the family, at another their office manager simply told me she "had not been feeling herself lately" and that was the cause of a couple of months delay. Survey took an insane 5 months. Not because surveyors were not available, they were, but they used *their* guy, who was apparently very backlogged. I was charged for the services of 2 people for the survey - It was an old man doing the work, while his wife sat in a lawn chair and read a book all day. I was quoted the garage when wood prices were at their absolute peak, and even though the lumber was ordered a year later they had the audacity to call and ask me for more money - despite them already denying me a discount for the obscene delays. When they initially told me they submitted plans to the village (after my numerous requests for status updates) I called the village and they had not submitted anything. First plans actually submitted to the village had multiple errors and I had to catch it to have them correct it. When the plans were finally accurately submitted and G4U were not responding to my requests for updates I called the village who said the plans were approved a while ago and G4U had not yet paid the permit or right of way. Go figure. By the time the permits finally came through it was now November with freezing temps, so the project now had to be pushed until early spring of next year. The demolition guy they sent, which is used by at least a couple of companies (saw him at a Blue Sky job last week) knocked over a wall of the old garage on my neighbor's fence, 5 minutes after I told him to please be careful to not do so, since it was clear that was going to happen. He also knocked over a wall of the old garage on my garden, wrecking my wire fencing and he couldn't care less about it. The cement sub-contract they used poured a terrible mix of concrete for the apron with awful seams and crumbling edges. I had to call them out on it and they came back to tear it out and repour it. The concrete work is not particularly great, with rough spots and out of plumb areas along the perimeter. I've also got a surface crack forming already, less 3 months after the pour. The concrete guys also splattered wet concrete on the siding of my house, which was an absolute pain to try and scrub off after hardened. Furthermore, the concrete guys had fried fish for lunch and they threw the bones in my bushes, which my dogs found and nearly choked on. The guys who did the framing worked quickly and professionally. However when the lumber was delivered they damaged my chain link fence and chain link gate. They later repaired the gate, but only after I discovered the damage a couple weeks later and called them out on it and noted it was on camera. Which by the way, from the security footage they clearly saw the damage when it happened and decided not to tell me about it. [This should be enough for you not to use them.] I told them specifically the brand/color of siding I wanted to use, which had 2 month lead time. They waited to order the siding until the day they started the framing, which led to another delay in finishing the project. The aluminum guy they used for the soffits, gutters, door frames was very good. I would hire him in a heartbeat. The electricians were good, however, not the installer's fault, I told the salesman Bob that I wanted to put a 100amp sub panel in the garage later for some EV chargers, so he up charged me to put a 3/4" line to the garage from the house - only to find out now that per code you can only run 60amps with a 3/4" conduit, so I'm stuck with that. Dozens of cigarette butts scattered through my yard during the project. Additionally... About the same time I made my down payment I recommended Garage For You to my neighbor because of the initial experience with the salesman. His project was also mired with delays and poor communication, to the point where I was embarrassed I had recommended them. At least his garage ended up getting finished in 2021."

FAQs for garage service projects in Glenview, IL

Yes, you should be able to cover your detached garage on your homeowners insurance policy. Most policies will automatically cover it as a “separate structure,” but policies differ widely. It’s best to confirm with your insurance company whether or not it will cover the detached garage before starting this extensive project.

It’s typically less expensive to buy a garage-building kit than to build a garage from scratch if you’re supplying all the labor. However, unless you are an experienced builder, you will still need to hire pros to install the foundation, concrete floor, and add electrical and plumbing to your garage kit. In that case, it’s worth the investment to build a garage through a local garage builder who can coordinate the hiring of other necessary pros.

The cost to convert a carport into a garage averages about $22,000, ranging from about $15,000 and $55,000. Additional cost factors to consider include size, time of year, and how much of the carport you can reuse. Other cost factors include the kinds and amounts of materials used, such as:

  • Add insulation: $1 per square foot

  • Add drywall: $1–$3 per square foot

  • Add window: $450–$2,000 per window

  • Add outlets: $75–$500

  • Add garage door: $250–$11,200

  • Enclose framing: $5–$13 per square foot

  • Replace roofing: $1,000–$2,000

The cost to build a detached garage for two cars costs about $26,400 on average. Prices range from $19,200 to $33,600, depending on your location, the garage size, height, materials, and site prep required. Additional cost factors include any plumbing, electrical wiring, and insulation. If you need to build a concrete foundation for a new detached garage, you can expect to pay $1,000 to $8,600 for this essential addition.

The average cost to remodel a garage is around $18,000, ranging from $1,500 to $50,000, depending on size, materials, location, and other factors like plumbing and electrical. Garage remodels that include changing the roof and walls add significant expenses to the project. Plus, you can expect to pay about $1,400 for the building conversion permits. For a simple remodel, like painting interior walls and recoating the garage floor, it will cost about $2 to $5 per square foot.
