Expert Garage Conversions in Metro Phoenix & Maricopa County

Garage conversions in Chandler give homeowners a practical way to add square footage without building from scratch. R&M Remodeling handles the full scope: framing, insulation, drywall, flooring, electrical, and HVAC tie-in. We convert attached and detached garages into home offices, guest suites, in-law quarters, and bonus rooms. Chandler's city code requires that a garage conversion be architecturally integrated with the existing residence, and drawings must show matching wall and roof coverings. Our team prepares the documentation your project needs to move through Chandler Development Services. Chandler also updated its zoning code with 30-plus amendments in 2024, tightening rules around ADU footprints and lot size. We stay current on those changes so your project is built to code from day one. If you are ready to stop parking in a space that could be a bedroom or office, call R&M Remodeling to schedule a walkthrough.

R&M Construction and Development did an excellent job painting the exterior of my home. From the beginning, they were transparent about the work that needed to be completed to ensure the best possible results. They were also very accommodating with last-minute changes and provided helpful recommendations throughout the decision-making process. The project was completed ahead of schedule, and I was able to see noticeable progress every day. Overall, I highly recommend R&M Construction and Development for any home improvement project.

Had the best experience with R&M Construction and Development. We redid all of the flooring, full interior paint and remodeled 2 bathrooms with them. The work they did came out amazing. They were very professional. We were not living at the home when the work was done but we went frequently to check on it and every time we went the home was always cleaned up by the time they left. Their team whole very helpful. They helped us with painting samples and explained the different paints. I'm in love with how everything turned out. I would highly recommend them.

R&M Construction and Development did an outstanding job building my spec home in Tonopah, Arizona. From start to finish, their team was professional, organized, and easy to work with. Communication was clear throughout the entire process, and they kept everything moving on schedule while maintaining high-quality workmanship. Their attention to detail really stood out from the finishes to the overall build quality, everything was done right the first time. They were transparent with costs, handled challenges quickly, and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. If you’re looking for a reliable builder who takes pride in their work and delivers exactly what they promise, I highly recommend Ramiro. I’m excited to keep working with him on the second spec later this year. Jose Romero

I am very happy with the final result of my bathroom remodel by R&M Construction & Development. They have a great team! They communicated with me consistently through out the whole project, answered every question or concern I had immediately (day or night), explained everything in great detail, and reassured me regularly. I trust them completely and will use them when I have another project. I highly recommend them to friends & family,

Janet Johnson Google review · June 2026

I remodeled my whole home with R&M and his team. From floors, paint, kitchen, bathrooms, underground plumbing, patio and a few other projects and I cant say enough about them. The team is very competent! They communicate with you throughout the whole project and the quality is top notch. If you’re looking for quality and a great experience overall, this is your contractor.
