Step 1: Consultation & Site Visit:
We start by discussing your ideas and inspecting your property to understand the available space and your specific needs.

We develop a personalized garage design that fits your budget, property layout, and intended use. You’ll also receive guidance in selecting finishes, roofing, doors, windows, and insulation.
Step 3: Permits & City Approvals:
No need to worry about red tape — we take care of all permits and ensure your garage fully complies with Calgary’s building codes and regulations.
Step 4: Construction:
Once everything is approved, our licensed team begins building, using high-quality materials and advanced techniques to ensure strength, durability, and style.
Step 5: Final Touches & Walkthrough:
