If your “garage” is triple-purpose storage, workshop, and overflow mudroom, high time you deserve a space that delivers. At RBC, we construct and design Boise area custom garages and Boise area custom shops in the Boise area, Meridian, Caldwell, and Nampa with smart layouts, clean details, and durable products. If you’re eyeing a two-car detached with a gear loft, heated hobby shop, RV bay, or all-out new garage building with related remodel, we handle the details so that you don’t have to worry about any aspect of the procedure other than selecting your colors and finishes. If you reside in Boise’s North End or the Foothills, near The Village in Meridian, close to Indian Creek in Caldwell, or south in Nampa, we’re familiar with the neighborhoods, the local flair, and local requirements that elicit the finest from a superior project, and take care of the paperwork so that you don’t have to.
Local knowledge matters. We craft spans, roof pitches, and drainage that perform in summer heat, winter cold snaps, snowstorms, and wind. Plans meet or exceed local building codes, including Boise, utilizing the 2018 IBC/IRC/IECC with local adaptations and a 25 psf minimum uniform roof snow weight. Since each jurisdiction establishes its own permitting process, we produce permit-ready plans and submit them online, walking you through review and inspections. No surprises, just outcomes: line-item bids, well-organized jobsites, proactive communications from initial consultation through final walk-thru.
Your garage should extend your home’s architecture, not compete with it. We coordinate siding profiles, rooflines, fascia details, and colors so an attached addition blends in seamlessly—and a detached building looks intentional from the street.
The result is a garage that fits your vehicles and your life—while looking like it was part of the original home.
When you’re building a woodshop, detailing bay, or makerspace, the top priority is function. Tool zones, dust collection or floor drains, high-intensity work lighting, and special circuits are expertly laid out so you can focus on the work. Moisture-tolerant slab finishes and purpose-made coatings create a clean, long-lasting floor, wall systems, overhead parts racks, and in-bench toolbenches keep tools at hand and under control.
When you need more space fast, engineered post-frame (pole-style) shops and hybrids offer an inexpensive structure with premium exterior finishes. The finished product is a shop that blends with the house, looks clean from the street, and feels solid underfoot, with no overbuilding in areas that don’t need it.
A new structure shouldn’t force you to deal with different suppliers. We take care of site planning, utilities, excavation, permits, foundations, structure, doors and operators, electricity, and coordination of final inspections, as well as keeping the schedule up to date. In cities like Nampa, in which one-story garages are specifically permit- required, we draw up the application and take care of submitting it for you and following through on approval so construction may get underway on schedule.
Great garages start with how you actually use them. In your consultation, we size for vehicles and gear, map door locations and work zones, and plan storage, power, heat, and lighting so movement feels natural and the space works day one.
The result: a garage that feels intuitive to use, performs year-round, and stays clean and productive.
Garages withstand abuse: vehicles, tools, temperature extremes. We start with foundations proportional to your soil-site-matched footings or thickened-edge slabs with rebar and vapor barriers, and slab drains when necessary. Framing consists of engineered headers at large doors and flat, kiln-dried studs that finish flat. The envelope is watertight with proper sheathing, WRB integration, and flashing at each penetration; drip edges protect the cladding, and the roofing is detailed at the valleys and the eaves with clean runoff in mind. We design with local snow loads in mind-25 psf minimum through amendment in Boise-and include insulated overhead doors with quiet openers and windows sited with no loss of wall storage. Electrical is clean and code-compliant with bright LED task lighting, ceiling drops for the tools, and EV-ready stubs. Finishes for both interior and exterior are selected for durability and ease of maintenance, from durable wall systems to epoxy or flake floors that take the spills and the wear.
We start with discovery: photos, measurements, needs like car heights, hobbies, or a future EV. Engineering and design refine layout, roof height, and door heights so plans are permit-acceptable and durable. We submit with the appropriate city-Meridian, Boise, Caldwell, or Nampa-and input any address corrections if needed, with a build schedule that respects your calendar. Along the way, you will enjoy clean site conditions, timely inspections, and regular updates. Once done, we conduct an intense site walk-through, provide as-builts and manuals, provide care advice, and leave the site spotless.
At RBC, we design and build custom garages and small-batch shops across the Treasure Valley from Boise to Meridian, from Caldwell to Nampa, engineered for local codes and weather, detailed to match your home, and planned for how you actually use the space. From attached additions that look original to RV bays, gear lofts, and heated hobby shops, we handle permits, utilities, inspections, and a clean, on-schedule build, so day one just works.
