Another incredible transformation completed by our team here at PDQ Construction! 🏡🔨✨
This project was completed in two phases and involved some major changes throughout this family’s home! Phase One included the remodel of two-bathroom spaces, while Phase Two completely reimagined the north end of the home by converting the existing garage into a brand-new living room and constructing a new 24' x 25' garage addition.
This entire project was estimated and led by our estimator, Jeff Starkey, who helped coordinate the project from the initial planning stages through each phase of construction.
Phase Two started with some serious demo! Our framing crew, led by Alex, along with Bill, Berto, and Emmie, removed the existing garage floor, roof, and north wall before reframing the space. The crew framed the new garage, including a 16-foot garage door, as well as the entire north-end roof and vaulted ceiling. They also built up the floor of the former garage to match the height of the existing house floor, installed engineered beams where portions of the exterior house wall and kitchen wall were removed, and insulated the new garage and living space.
Once framing was complete, Lead Carpenter Jason and his crew member Joe took over the interior finishing of the new living room. Their work included installing and finishing drywall throughout the new living area, garage, and modified walls; matching the knockdown texture in the new space and patched ceiling areas; painting ceilings and touching up walls; and completing the new trim work with baseboards and casing.
To help the new living room feel like it had always been part of the home, we installed LVP flooring to match the existing kitchen flooring throughout the new living area, existing living room, hallway, and both remodeled bathrooms. Three new 36" x 72" Gerkin casement windows were also installed along the north end, bringing plenty of natural light into the newly created living space. 🪟☀️
Our Lead Mason Taylor and his crew member Joe also put their skills to work on this transformation, completing the brick detailing around the fireplace and excavating and installing two new egress windows.
What started as an existing garage is now a beautiful extension of this family’s home—and with a brand-new 24' x 25' garage built to replace it, they gained additional living space without sacrificing the functionality of a garage.

This project truly showcases what our team can accomplish from start to finish—demo, framing, masonry, remodeling, interior finishes, and everything in between! It took multiple crews and a lot of teamwork to bring both phases together, and we couldn’t be happier with the finished result! 🔨🏡
