Nehemiah Construction LLC
Garage Designers in Ellicott City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 11, 2017
“Working with Nehemiah Construction was an amazing experience. The owner was professional, active throughout the whole project and easy to communicate with. He was especially helpful in helping me choose a hardwood floor. The way he helped me understand what was best was an art form. He wasn’t pushy, just knowledgeable. I get so many complements on my hardwood floors to this day.”
Hammer Design Build Remodel
Garage Designers in Ellicott City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 19, 2013
“Greg from Hammer Contractors was one of the best I've worked with. We have not actually started the work yet, but he gave great information and outlined the steps involved in getting it done. He was punctual, and always followed up with an email to check the status of my talks with the bank. He was always respectful and actually listened to us. We will definitely be working with him again.”

“I had the pleasure of hiring Finecraft for a project recently that called for the addition of an outdoor living area to my home. The level of detail and commitment to quality was unsurpassed. These are Craftsmen, not contractors. It shows in every project they create. JF Homeowner”
SB Builders & Construction Inc.
Garage Designers in Ellicott City
Average rating: 4 out of 5 starsMay 7, 2018
“Construction & remodeling is a big business. There are many small & large companies competing in the field. What stand out about SB was 1- their estimates were very close to the actual cost, 2- they did the job on time & 3- they made no excuses like lots of others I have seen because they didn’t need to. Professional staff with great service. I do recommend them for anybody looking to do work on their homes.”
Marks-Woods Construction Services, LLC
Garage Designers in Ellicott City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 27, 2013
“Work was completed in my kitchen - removal of one wall and existing floor (3 different types); reconstuction of pantry; installation of new 3 drawer cabinet, new floor, countertop, back splash, and new lighting. MW Construction management and staff were very professional and courteous. The staff came as scheduled and management kept me appraised of progress throughout the project. Management personally helped with my selection of flooring, countertop, and back splash; and I received contractor pricing even though I personally paid for the items separately (no overhead added for MW Contruction). Items in and around contruction zone were protected throughout the project and construction area was cleaned up at the end of each work day. The end result is beautiful and of high quality. I would recommend MW Construction Services, LLC., to anyone and everyone.”
Heartland Design and Remodeling
Garage Designers in Ellicott City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 20, 2012
“I purchased a foreclosured town house that had possibly the worst yellow kitchen you ever saw. NVS transformed my space and added thousands of dollars of value to my home. One of their in-house designers came up with the idea to tear down a wall. I would never had thought of that, but it opened up my floor plan and made my home feel much newer than it actual is. Also, their tile-person came to me with ideas of his own. For just a little more cost to me he added decorative glass tiles that really turned my backsplash and floor into a work of art. I'm currently saving up money to redo my master bathroom, and I already plan to give NVS my work.”

Byrd Design and Build
Garage Designers in Ellicott City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 19, 2019
“My husband and I had debated for several months if we should move to a larger space, or renovate our current home for our expanding family. I had brought this up with Rick Byrd, the owner of Byrd Design and Build (BDB), and he immediately came to our house to talk with us through all of our options. He walked through our house and really gave us some amazing plans to make the space we already had more usable and more modern and up to date. This was the perfect option for us, considering we were expecting our first child. He laid out all of the different renovation plans we could have and really helped us envision a space catered to our wants and needs. My husband works from home, so we thought it was going to be a difficult journey to do an almost complete gut job of our basement and first floor kitchen/bedroom/bath, but BDB did an amazing job accommodating him and being cautious of the space we weren’t renovating. During the construction process, all of the subcontractors of BDB were extremely nice, non-invasive and very courteous of everything in the house. Darren, the project manager, was always attentive and mindful of our timeline, which was shortened due to the arrival of our new baby. We have the perfect new nursery, brand new kitchen and bathroom, and an entirely finished basement all just in time for our son. Everything was completed in a timely fashion and in pristine condition. We are obsessed with our basically “new” house!”
Landis Architects | Builders
Garage Designers in Ellicott City
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 26, 2012
“Landis is simply, the cream of the crop, I'm qualified to say it. I know it because I've had Landis come three times now, since 2007, have seen the quality of the work they do, but just as importantly, the excellence they show by bringing the client/s into the process, every step of the way. When you work with a design build firm, you have the benefit of working with those who understand today's current costs. Unlike architects who have seasoned understanding, a design build firm knows what wallboard costs this week. With computer assisted design, you can get under the hood with designers and try something here, or move something there. Great fun, they 'let you drive' sometime, you're part of an evolutionary decision process. No need for 'change orders' if you were there at the planning. With each of three projects, Landis had to go through the county historic board. Much of it is prior experience with them, telephone contact, but Landis actually showed up to the evening board hearing...I did not. Shows their level of excellence. It's pathfinding for Landis and for Historic itself, dealing with top drawer professionalism. With this current project, Landis designed the deck that translated perfectly from what I stated, I.e., good design and sturdy. Rather than worry that 'this fella who works from the back of the truck' is doing it right, Landis has given methodical attention and has had inspections as the permitting requires. The stairs have three stringers, the previous deck staircase had but two, and the stairs wobbled in a short time. Landis is an asset to the DC Metro area. On the 2007 project, I learned from the electricians and plumber....they want to work with Landis. As for why, I guessed right....Landis is above board, keeps tight timelines, streamlines so nobody shows up only to have to wait around. Plus, they're just fun to work with, knowledge aside. Told them, it's like having brothers-in-law in the trades and not having to buy the beer.”

Design-Build Contractor FAQs
The duration of a garage design project can vary significantly based on the projectʼs complexity, the chosen materialsʼ availability, and whether the design includes construction or renovation. Typically, designing and planning can take anywhere from 2-4 weeks, with the construction phase ranging from 1-6 months. Your Garage Designer can offer a more accurate timeline once the scope of work is fully outlined.
Garage Designers frequently attend industry trade shows, participate in professional development courses, and subscribe to leading design publications to stay informed about the latest materials and trends. They prioritize materials that are durable, low maintenance, and suit the projectʼs aesthetic and functional needs. Sustainable and smart technologies are also increasingly popular, reflecting the growing demand for eco-friendly and efficient designs.
Homeowners should start by defining their goals for the space, such as whether they need more storage, a workspace, or an additional living area. Itʼs helpful to have a budget in mind and any inspirational images that reflect your style and functional needs. Additionally, knowing the dimensions of your current garage and having a basic understanding of any restrictions set by local zoning laws or homeownersʼ associations will facilitate a more productive initial consultation.
Experienced Garage Designers are adept at navigating challenges such as spatial limitations, budget constraints, and compliance with local building codes. They leverage creative problem-solving to maximize space, suggest alternatives to stay within budget, and ensure the design meets all legal requirements. Effective communication and transparency throughout the process help mitigate any issues, ensuring a smooth project flow from conception to completion.
When integrating smart technology, consider usability, security, and how the technology can enhance the garageʼs functionality. Discuss with your Garage Designer about incorporating smart garage door openers, climate control systems, or vehicle charging stations. Itʼs essential to ensure your homeʼs existing technology is compatible and that the design accommodates any necessary wiring or installations without compromising aesthetics or space efficiency.
Yes, Garage Designers can often assist with the permit process, either by providing the necessary drawings and documentation for homeowners to submit or by managing the submission and approval process on their behalf. Their understanding of local building codes and regulations ensures that designs are compliant, minimizing the risk of delays or penalties. Always confirm with your designer about the extent of their services regarding permits and legal requirements.
