How long does it takes to build a typical garage project?

Project timelines vary depending on the scope, but most garage projects take 4-6 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline before starting so you know what to expect.

Can a basement be converted into a legal bedroom or suite?

Yes, but it must meet building code requirements, including minimum ceiling height, egress windows, fire safety measures, and proper insulation. We ensure your basement is safe, code-compliant, and functional.

Do you provide warranty on the basement development?

Yes, all of our garage packages come with a 1-year workmanship warranty for your peace of mind. Our warranty ensures any deficiencies from our work quality are fully covered. In addition, materials we use are protected by the manufacturer's warranty. Simply email us if you notice an issue, and we'll handle it promptly.

How do you maximize space in a basement?

We optimize layouts with open-concept designs, built-in storage, and strategic lighting. Ceiling height, egress, and utilities are carefully considered to make the space feel larger and more comfortable.

Will the renovation affect the rest of my home?

Our team works to minimize disruption. We protect existing spaces, maintain clear communication, and schedule work efficiently to reduce noise and inconvenience.
