“We bought our new house last summer and knew we “We bought our new house last summer and knew we wanted a garage. … We met with a @danleyschicago salesperson, and they were very detailed and did a great job explaining options and what to expect in the building process. During the permit, concrete pour and build, they would check in with us and give us updates on where things were and what to expect, which helped ease our concerns.
