At Inova Builds, we design garages built for heavy snow loads. As your garage builder in Lakeville, MN, we plan for local snow loads, deep frost, and freeze-thaw cycles that can quickly crack a weak slab. We use durable materials, set proper footings, and keep you informed at every stage. The result is a space that protects your vehicles, gear, and hobbies through everything Minnesota throws at it.

We build attached and standalone garages from the first plan to the final walkthrough. Frost line depth, snow load, and freeze-thaw shifts all shape how we pour slabs and frame walls here. That’s why we build with strong footings, tight insulation, and weather-ready finishes. You get a solid structure that stays level, stays dry, and serves you through every Minnesota season.
An experienced garage builder starts with how you’ll use the space. We shape smart garage design around your vehicles, tools, and gear, so every square foot works hard and stays organized year-round.
Want a custom garage with extra height, a workshop bay, or a loft? We tailor layouts to your goals and your lot. Every build uses high-quality materials designed to withstand cold, snow, and daily use.
Ready for a metal garage or a classic wood-framed build? We construct sturdy detached garages and dependable car garage spaces with slabs and framing engineered for our climate, giving you lasting protection and room to grow.

Matt does top notch work, highly highly recommend!!
We are very happy with the work from Inova Services. Across multiple projects: Driveway repair, Deck replacement, along with assorted smaller projects. Good communication, work scheduling and management, and quality of results. Five Stars isn't quite enough.
Matt has been wonderful to work with and continues to impress us with his knowledge and communication! We have been most excited about the design of our new kitchen. Working with Matt and the designer was great. We were able to partner with both of them to really get the most storage and functionality out of our space, without sacrificing design. We can’t wait to see it come to life!
Great experience, excellent communication and attention to detail
We’ve worked with Matt at Inova Services on multiple projects in our living room and basement, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Matt is concise, informative, and an excellent communicator. He’s always patient, taking the time to explain details and answer any questions we have. His attention to detail is outstanding, and every project has turned out beautifully. If you’re looking for a contractor and/or builder that’s dependable and skilled, we highly recommend Matt and Inova Services!
Mathew has been a pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable in his craft and is passionate about building. I highly recommend working with him if you have a project.
Matt and team did an amazing job adding wainscoting to our stairwell and accent wall. They taped the design so I could see what it would look like beforehand hand and stayed on time and budget. Matt was a great communicator before, during and after. He even send a handwritten card thanking me for the business. They left their scaffolding for our painters to make they job easier and made a wooden step for future project needs to be made easier. They went above and beyond and really made this project feel more attainable. Highly recommend them for your project needs!
We LOVED working with Matt who owns Inova services. We had a basement project that we needed some help with updating. I can not tell you how impressed I am. I have never met a contractor that communicates so well. He was always checking in with updates and asking if we had questions or concerns throughout the process. Matt also cares about the clients he works with. He is very detailed and has your best interest. He would think about details that would fit our needs. For example, a small thing like checking in about how a door would door open with the way we wanted to use the space. His bid was competitive with others we received and we were impressed by his process, organization, communication, kindness and detail and went with Inova. Matt is great and I would recommend him. We hope to use him again when we work on redoing our kitchen!

I have used Matt and his crew at Inova Services for a number of projects over the years including installation and maintenance of an irrigation system. An electrical contractor accidentally drove a copper grounding wire through the system electric cable. It was hard to find and repair but Matt had the right equipment to find and repair the problem. It’s nice to work with people who know what they are doing. I highly recommend Matt and his crew!!

Hired Inova for one project and added on 3 more! They are responsive, stayed on budget and completed the work on time. Extremely happy with Mathew and the professional quality he provided for our projects!
I used Inova to install some windows in my home! They look great! Matt was very thorough when it came to making my vision into a reality! The design process was smooth, the team was super nice and curious, the project length was within the window of time they originally estimated and they cleaned up everything upon completion! I plan to use them again for my upcoming bathroom remodel and some new egress windows!
