Benefits of Garage Construction
Increased Property Value
A professionally constructed garage adds measurable value to your home. It improves curb appeal, increases functionality, and serves as a major selling point. Potential buyers are more inclined to invest in properties with secure and convenient storage options, making a garage an excellent long-term investment for boosting overall property marketability and resale potential.
Vehicle and Equipment Protection
Garages offer essential protection for vehicles, tools, and outdoor equipment. Exposure to harsh weather, UV rays, and debris can lead to rust, paint damage, and premature wear. A well-built, weather-sealed garage prevents these issues, safeguarding your investments and reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements caused by environmental exposure.
Versatile Functional Space
A garage can be adapted for far more than just parking. With proper design, it can serve as a workshop, home gym, storage space, or hobby room. Custom layouts, lighting, and utilities make it easy to create a functional area that supports your lifestyle or additional household needs beyond standard use.
Energy Efficiency and Comfort
Insulated garages help regulate indoor temperatures, improving comfort and energy efficiency. Whether attached or detached, insulation reduces drafts and keeps the space usable throughout the year. This lowers energy consumption in adjacent living areas while making the garage comfortable for work, storage, or leisure, even during temperature extremes.
Enhanced Security
A secure garage offers peace of mind. Reinforced doors, proper locks, and strong framing make it difficult for unauthorized entry. Additional features like motion-sensor lighting and security systems further improve safety, deterring theft and vandalism while ensuring protection for vehicles, tools, and other valuable possessions stored inside.
Convenient All-Season Access
A garage offers hassle-free access to your belongings and vehicles in any weather. Rain, snow, or scorching sun won’t disrupt your daily routine. With features like overhead storage, lighting, and work areas, it’s a reliable, all-season space to carry out maintenance, hobbies, or simply store seasonal items conveniently.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does garage construction take?
Construction varies by size and features. Typical single-car builds take 6–8 weeks; larger multi-bay garages with electrical and insulation may take 10–14 weeks. Weather conditions can affect scheduling. We provide clear timelines and updates throughout construction.
Do you handle permits and zoning?
Absolutely. Our team manages all paperwork for Perryopolis’s building permits, inspections, setback requirements, and zoning documents. This avoids delays and ensures compliance with Fayette County regulations, giving homeowners peace of mind through professional oversight.
Can I add electrical or plumbing later?
Yes. We design garages with rough-in capability for future electrical outlets, lighting, or even plumbing. Planning ahead simplifies future additions for workshops or utility spaces. We ensure code-compliant conduit installations before finishing.
Are detached garages more cost-effective?
Detached garages allow flexible placement and simpler foundations, often costing less than attached ones. Yet for convenience and access, attached garages offer indoor entry and shared utilities. We help evaluate both options based on your land layout.
What materials do you recommend for siding and roofing?
Vinyl or fiber cement siding are ideal for low maintenance and weather resistance. Roofing choices include asphalt shingles for cost-effectiveness, metal for snow-shedding performance, or composite shakes for aesthetic impact. Options are graded for insulation and warranty support.
Can you match a detached garage to my home's exterior?
Yes. We replicate your home’s exterior materials, color palette, trim profile, and window style to ensure cohesion. Custom detailing ensures your new garage becomes a seamless extension of your property, enhancing visual appeal and resale appeal.
Do you offer garage door openers and smart tech?
We install quiet, reliable opener systems with safety sensors and remote access. Options include battery backup, Wi-Fi controls, and smartphone integration. These features increase convenience and security for modern Perryopolis homes.

Testimonials
AH Construction did an awesome job rehabbing the outside of our house. Alvin's pricing was great. They redid everything on the outside of our house except for the wood on the side porch. Alvin's team doesn't mess around. They get to work and get it done right. I do not hesitate to recommend their work.

My family has many years of experience in the building trades and were very impressed with their craftsmanship. We worked as a team to overcome some issues that developed towards the end and we couldn’t be happier with the final product. Huge thank you to Alvin and his crew for being a part of our build!!
