Does anyone have a recommendation for a builder for a new garage? We're looking for a contractor to build a replacement for our 1920s-era garage, hopefully someone who does good quality work and can build something that fits into our neighborhood. Any recommendations are welcome!
Hey Greg. We demo our single car, 1915 garage on Tues in favor of a 2 car, additional storage above version. I looked at contractors for a long time. What I learned is that there are just a few who specialize in garages in the Cities. We went w Heinen Contracting. The others are: Western (could never get anyone to get back to me), Mpls Garage (my dad uses him) and Stussel. I am sure there are other general contractors who will build a garage but these 4 specialize. Low end for 2 car will be $25k I think. Ours is going to be $40k+ which is crazy but that is what it costs. Big decisions for us were around layout of the new garage and siding (alum or vinyl versus a wood-like product). Chris
Hi Chris, You posted this months ago in reply to my husband's post. Wondering how your experience was with Greg Heinen. We are having some issues and would appreciate any info you have. My email is <email obscured> if you would be willing to contact us. Thanks.
