Description

Recently moved back home to care for 86 year old mom. The garage is on it's last legs and would like to replace with another garage to turn into a Diva Den. Some landscaping necessary. Garage is 18'x10' Ultimately, the structure will basically be a garage with furniture in it. My ideas for the interior would be finished walls, either drywall or something with insulation. I can probably explain what I want to get technical terms to be better able to figure out pricing. For the floor, just polished concrete, nothing fancy. It will function as a Diva Den now but I would like it to also function as a garage for any eventual re-sale. My budget is flexible and I can increase it to something more in line with the type of work that needs to be done (I found a pre-fab structure (one of my inspiration photos) and just padded that price for the total project.) I can tweak my project to fit within Sweeten guidelines. I have absolutely no idea how to begin a project like this and that's why Sweeten seemed like a perfect fit for me.
