We are a design-build contractor that provides architectural and construction services for garages. Whether you need a place to keep your everyday automobiles, protect your specialty vehicles or a quiet place to work on hobby projects, Foster Remodeling can help you create a haven from the weather. If you need extra storage space for games, toys, sports equipment and infrequently used household supplies, we can help you find the perfect place to keep them without taking away from room for automobiles.

Using our design-build software, we can create Northern Virginia home additions that are tailored to the homeowner. We use the space you have available and help you decide how to best use it. Together we can choose the best materials, colors and construction plan to create something that works for you. Before you give us a call, take a mental survey of what you would like to do with your new garage. Consider the number of vehicles you would like to house, any special height clearance issues, and other objects that will need to “live” in the garage. This includes bicycles, a shelving system, strollers, toolboxes and hobby equipment. If you have a growing family, you may want to think about the future number of drivers and vehicles that will call the garage home.

We can do either attached or detached garages, depending on your needs and space available. We will help you secure the proper permits required and we can make sure your project is completed on budget and on time.

Safety and Efficiency

These changes may prompt you to make adjustments in the layout of the home. The current setup is no longer efficient for everyone’s purposes and it’s time to redesign. With a new baby on the way, it may mean simply changing the office into the nursery. On the other hand, there may be several safety hazards throughout the home that need to be remedied. For example, staircase railings with wide gaps in between balusters should be replaced with less dangerous ones.

Bringing your mother or father into the home may require something a little more dramatic in interior remodeling, especially if they have difficulty moving about and require a walker or wheelchair. Countertops and doorways may need to be lowered or widened. All floor surfaces should be mobility-friendly. There may be a need for privacy or separate quarters altogether. Consider a home addition or makeover so that living areas will not be cramped and stressful.

Comfort

Are there enough bathrooms in the house to accommodate everyone? There can never be enough storage space. Think about adding an office for working at home, or making an extra kitchen so Mom or Dad can fix something to eat without having to cook for the whole family. We can show you how to make a kitchen remodel cost less.

Whether changing a single room or building an addition, Foster Remodeling can serve as both the architect and builder for these projects, with its Design Build services. Come in and see what it would look like on our virtual model. You may conjure up some ideas you haven’t even thought of yet or we can suggest a few.

Professional Advice

The experts at Foster Remodeling are familiar with the requirements for expanding and adjusting space and securing building permits in Northern Virginia. Home renovations may include moving walls, changing plumbing pipe layouts and electrical wiring are projects we do regularly. ADA recommendations are easily met by our designers and we can help you learn the right height and width needs for doorways, railings and living spaces.

Rather than making further changes in your lifestyle by moving, keep the home you have and make some adjustments. Changing your existing home to suit your needs is easier than finding a new one with all of the creature comforts you are seeking.
