Custom GARAGE CONSTRUCTION THAT ADDS REAL VALUE TO YOUR PROPERTY
A well-built garage does more than protect your vehicles. It gives you dedicated workspace, secure storage, and flexibility for how you use your property for years to come.
But garages come with real constraints that shape what's buildable. Your lot size and setback requirements determine the footprint. Your intended use affects the foundation depth, wall construction, and door sizing. Climate control, electrical capacity, and ceiling height all depend on how you plan to use the space.
After 20+ years building garages across Kane County and the surrounding areas, I've learned that most problems come from rushing past these details. When we understand what you need the space to do, we can design and build something that actually works for you.
That's why we start with a site visit to review your property, discuss your goals, and figure out what's possible within your lot constraints and budget. From there, you'll get a detailed scope, honest pricing, and my direct involvement from groundbreaking to final walkthrough.
That's how it should be.

A standard two-car detached garage costs less than an oversized workshop with climate control and finished interior. I don't publish price ranges because they'd be misleading for your specific situation. When we meet, I'll give you realistic cost information based on exactly what you want to build.
