Home Gym Build Out

Project Summary

In this project, we took a large unfinished storage room under the garage and created a spacious home fitness center. The project involved and was not limited to: helping the client layout and design the space, demoing existing walls, framing new walls, installing and finishing sheetrock, installing doors, trim and a window, painting, electrical, and flooring. The majority of the project was completed by Major Painting’s carpenters, sheet rockers, and painters. The only portion that was outsourced was the electrical component due to city permit and license requirements. The project was run on time and on budget and as a perk, the space turned out to feel bigger than the client had imagined it would, putting a little icing on top of an already successful renovation project!
