What We Build

Detached Garages

New construction detached garages built on permanent foundations. Custom-sized to your needs with options for workshops, storage lofts, and finished interiors.

Workshops & Storage

Custom-designed workshop space with electrical, lighting, and insulation. Add built-in storage, workbenches, and heavy-duty flooring to fit your needs.

Garage + Living Space

The best of both worlds: vehicle storage on the ground level with a finished apartment, studio, or office above. A popular choice for homeowners who want both parking and bonus space.

In most Northwest Arkansas cities, yes — detached garages over a certain size require a building permit. We handle the entire permitting process for every project we build, so you do not have to deal with the city directly.

Detached garages typically take 3 to 5 months from permit approval. Projects with living space above may take slightly longer. We provide a clear timeline during your free estimate.

Absolutely. Garage-plus-apartment builds are one of our most popular configurations. The ground level provides vehicle storage and workshop space, while the upper level serves as a studio, office, guest suite, or rental unit.
