Garages, Barns & More Custom-Built for Your Property
No two properties—or homeowners—have exactly the same needs.
Making the most of your property starts with a design that accounts for your available building area, storage and use requirements, architectural considerations, and future plans for the space.
Whether you need better parking, space to store tools and seasonal belongings, or a dedicated room for hobbies and projects.
DeSalvo Builders will help you accommodate those needs with a custom structure that fits your Manchester property and complements your home.

What We Build
We build custom structures around your priorities, whether you need extra parking and storage or a dedicated space for work, hobbies, or recreation.
Custom Detached Garages
Add separate space for vehicles, equipment, storage, or a backyard spa/gym without changing your existing home. We plan detached garages around your lot’s available space, access, and intended building use.
Custom Barns
Where your property and requirements allow, a custom barn can provide plenty of space for equipment, storage, recreation, and projects. We’ll help you plan a building around its intended purpose.
Custom Attached Garages
Bring parking and storage directly into your home’s layout. Our attached garages are designed for your existing home, including connections, architectural details, rooflines, and exterior features.
Custom Workshops & Accessory Structures
Create a dedicated setting for woodworking, mechanical projects, hobbies, or organized equipment storage. We design workshops and accessory structures around the functions and layout you want from the finished building.
Why Choose a Custom Garage?
Your property’s layout and space requirements may need more flexibility than a prefab or packaged garage offers. Custom construction lets you plan the building’s footprint, features, and appearance around your property’s characteristics and your needs.
A custom garage allows you to make decisions based on:
Your property's available space and layout
The number and type of vehicles you need to accommodate
Your storage and workspace requirements
The architectural style of your existing home
Desired doors, windows, rooflines, and exterior materials
Current needs as well as how you may use the building in the future
Instead of adapting your needs to a standard package, DeSalvo Builders creates a structure specifically for your property and project.
