Are prefabricated garages worth it?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

Q: Can I convert my garage into an ADU?

• <div><p>You can convert your garage into an ADU. You&rsquo;ll need to follow local building codes to ensure your new unit is up to code. For the most part, building an ADU in an existing building is more affordable than building a new one. Even so, consider the condition of your garage before making a decision. Not all garages are in shape for a smooth conversion to an ADU, and renovations can add up in cost.</p></div>

Q: Should I build a garage myself?

• <div><p>If you're handy, you may want to take on building a garage as a do-it-yourself project. However, whether it's a good idea to build a garage on your own or not depends on the type of structure you want to build and local permitting laws. If you want to work with a pre-fab structure, you may be able to DIY. However, if laying a foundation is involved, you're better off working with a professional builder.</p></div>

Q: What part of the house takes the longest to build?

• <div><p>Framing tends to be the longest step in the construction process, especially for larger homes. It takes anywhere from one week to a couple of months, depending on the house size, the number of people on the construction crew, and the time of year. The design stage often takes a long time, too. Some people spend months or even years contemplating their house&rsquo;s size, layout, and materials before construction begins.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth it to hire a hardscape contractor?

• <div><p>In most cases, the cost of hiring a hardscape contractor is a worthwhile investment. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-can-hardscaping-benefit-my-lawn-and-landscape.htm">Hardscaping projects</a> can get quite expensive, but they improve the utility of your yard, boost your curb appeal, and usually improve the value of your home. Patios, decks, retaining walls, and other components are challenging to install, and mistakes can be costly. Hiring a hardscape professional is usually the best course of action when it comes to these types of projects.</p></div>

Beware of this contractor, do your homework. Steve is a personable guy and comes across very friendly but doesn't listen, cuts corners, and will defer you to his attorney if you have problems with his work. Our property is now de-valued because he was there. - Water lines all over the building...

Excellent! Our house was built 50 years ago and this company built the new garage with a style and materials that made the new construction look as if it had been built when the house was. They took time to build a quality structure with no short cuts. We are VERY pleased!
