When a garage takes serious damage, the first priority is securing the opening fast. That's exactly where we started - boarding up the entire garage door opening to keep the structure protected while we figured out the full scope of what needed to come out and what needed to go back in. No shortcuts, no guesswork.

Here's what we were actually dealing with: damaged framing and masonry that had to go. We stripped it all back to what was solid, including removing compromised brick and wall sections on the corner. You can see the exposed foundation and block work at that side column - that's where the new build had to start, from the ground up.

Once the old material was cleared, we set new framing on the fresh foundation. Pressure-treated lumber at the base, properly spaced studs throughout, and everything squared up tight. We also applied house wrap to the framing on that corner column before any finishing work went on - that's the kind of detail that protects the structure long after the crew is gone.

With the new framing fully in place and sheathed with OSB, the opening is now prepped and ready for the new garage door installation. The wall is solid, the framing is clean, and the corner that took the worst of the damage has been rebuilt with new block and proper moisture management. That's the difference between a patch job and an actual repair.

Jobs like this one hit every part of what we do - emergency board-up to secure the site, full framing and structural repairs to get it back to square, and the kind of systematic progress that means nothing gets missed. It's not always pretty in the middle, but the end result speaks for itself.
