Detached garage and carriage house built in Nashville

Detached structures done properly, whether you need parking, a workshop or something above it.

What a garage project can cover

A detached garage is often the most cost-effective square footage you can add to a lot. Built with a usable second storey, a carriage house can carry an office, a studio or an apartment on top of the parking below.

The work covers site prep and slab, framing, roofing, siding that matches the main house, doors, and the electrical service to run tools or charge a car. Where a second storey is habitable, it follows the same code path as any dwelling space.

We will tell you early whether your lot, setbacks and zoning support what you have in mind, before you spend money finding out.

Question? Answered

The questions Nashville homeowners ask us most, answered straight.

Are estimates free?

In most cases, yes. We like the chance to talk through process, timing and the financial side so you can make an informed decision about your project. Even if we do not end up working together, we want to be a useful resource while you navigate the planning stage.

Can you give me an estimate over the phone?

A phone call usually gets us a good way into the bid, but hard numbers are difficult to pin down until someone has seen the space. We strongly recommend a site visit wherever possible. Our standard hours are Monday to Thursday, 8am to 4pm, and Friday, 8am to 3pm.

Do you provide design or architecture services?

Not in house. We do collaborate with architects and designers across Middle Tennessee on projects of every size, and we are happy to share a list of the people we know and trust so you can find the right fit for your project.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Yes. As your general contractor we stay current on building codes and regulations, pull the necessary permits, and schedule the inspections that keep your project compliant with local code.

What happens when something unexpected comes up?

Construction throws curveballs, it is the nature of the work. We raise the issue with you quickly, lay out the options, provide a revised estimate, and adapt the plan together rather than pressing on and surprising you later.

What warranty do you offer?

Our workmanship warranty covers one year from the date of substantial completion, and we reserve the right to correct deficiencies beyond that period where they stem from neglectful workmanship.
