"Bigger, Brighter and Better!" That's what the owner has to say about this new garage. The old garage shown in the picture below was just not large enough, was retaining water, and was an eyesore. The new garage custom-built by W.E. Bilbrey enhanced the size, giving the owner more needed storage. The original garage was also lower than the alley grade, and the new garage had to be lifted out of the ground preventing the problems of the old garage. Stairs and landscaping were then added for an overall appealing look that flowed with the style of the owner's home.

The previous garage didn't provide enough functional space and often flooded and held water. The old garage was torn down, the area was raised, and a new larger garage was constructed. A new overhead garage door, windows and a service door were installed. The siding and trim were added coordinating with the siding and trim on the house; was finished off with new concrete and sidewalk.

The homeowners of this one car garage ranch desired a two car garage, and called upon W.E. Bilbrey. To start off, the roof line was raised to allow for a larger garage door. The one car garage was converted into a two car garage using brick that matched the house exactly. By the end of the project, the home appeared as though it was originally built with a two car garage. The inside of the new garage was finished with insulation and drywall to make the garage functional year round. New gutters and trim were installed and a new concrete driveway completed the project.

This homeowner was excited to begin the process of building his dream two car garage. He also requested a driveway be put in for easy access to the garage. The old concrete sidewalk and part of the back porch patio were removed to allow for the new driveway to be put in. The footers were dug and the foundation was poured. The next step was to frame in the walls and put the roof on. New white vinyl siding was also added to give it a crisp finish. The homeowner finally got the garage he had always wanted!
