Contractor to build garage?

[bud]

Hi,

I would like to have a one-car stand-alone garage built on my property. Any recommendations for contractors who do this kind of work?

Thanks!

I think A LOT of Owen Wright at Wright Innovations and Design (licensed, bonded, etc.). He is a contractor you can count on showing up when he says he will. He and his crew do a great job and take pride in what they do. He has done work for several of my clients as well as: Bath remodel, Kitchen remodel, and structural repair to my home. He works mainly by referral so drop me a line if you are interested in interviewing him.

I highly reccomend JD Johnson Construction located on California across the street from “O’Neil the Plumber”. Great people to work with and do excellent work!

I would like to offer a different and I believe more accurate review of Owen Wright at Wright Innovations and Design. The above recommendation is inaccurate. For example Owen, has no “crew”, he picks up his help whenever and wherever. I hired him to add an addition to my garage and am finding that I am having to redo and fix everything he has done. The work was not done according to the contract he wrote and our discussions. In the May time frame he left materials and tools laid about and he simply never showed up again. Earlier in this nightmare experience due to his money problems he asked for payments before meeting contract milestones. He does not show up when he says, if at all. The project which he said would take 4 weeks, was never really finished. Recently, I contacted him to be sure he was aware of the issues with the project. His method of dealing with these issues was to call me a liar and swear at me. He then reiterated this including the filthy language in a text message, which I actually appreciated because the behavior is so unstable that by putting this in writing, he has given me proof of behavior that in no way belongs in a business setting. The content is not appropriate for this forum or anywhere. This has been my experience with “Wright Innovations”. I suggest staying as far away as possible. I wish I had. It is a sad state of affairs when people like this can call themselves a general contractor.

It is extremely important that anyone looking to hire a contractor verify their status with the Washington State Department of Labor and Industries. All of this can be done on line. They are there to protect you and can provide much valuable information! If you don’t vet the contractor you can really suffer some consequences, financial and otherwise.
