After nearly a year of dedication, patience, and perseverance, we’re thrilled to share that this beautiful patio and garage project has officially passed its final inspection and is complete! 🎉

This one meant a little more to us. What started as a shared vision turned into a journey of resilience and determination. We faced challenges along the way that would have stopped many, but we never lost sight of the goal. Together, we worked through every delay, every adjustment, and every new step until this home became exactly what was envisioned.

The result? A stunning garage that perfectly complements the home’s design—with a deep blue exterior, crisp white trim, and a clean, seamless concrete finish. The covered patio adds a warm, welcoming touch, creating the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful North Idaho surroundings.

We’re proud of this one not just because it turned out beautifully, but because of what it represents: strength, patience, and partnership. Every build tells a story—and this one is about seeing things through, even when the road gets rough.

A huge thank-you to our amazing client for trusting us through it all, and to our crew for their hard work and commitment to finishing strong.

Here’s to new beginnings, finished projects, and the satisfaction of seeing it all come together. 💙🏡

If there’s one thing this week reminded us of, it’s this — real progress doesn’t always make noise.

We’ve been deep in those quiet grind stages on a few jobs:

The garage/patio is fully painted, the new door’s installed, and we’re waiting on final inspection.

In the secret room, the corners and ceiling got a clean refresh, and we’re swapping in a new window that actually opens.

The deck keeps stretching out beautifully — just waiting on the next load of boards to arrive.

From the outside, it might look like we’ve hit pause. But this is where the work really happens.

As Andy Frisella said this week:

“Time will either expose you or reward you. It all depends on how you spend it.”

That perspective fits perfectly. Because remodeling — like business, like life — is all about aggressive patience.

You give everything you’ve got today, even when there’s nothing flashy to show for it yet.
You keep pushing through the waiting, the deliveries, the weather, the details.
And when it all comes together, the result speaks louder than words ever could.

So if your own project — or your goals — feel like they’re inching forward right now, don’t lose heart.
You’re not stuck; you’re stacking progress that’s about to break through.

Time isn’t your enemy. It’s just a mirror — reflecting what you do with it.

Big progress on the garage build this week! We officially passed our insulation inspection ✅, which means the space is sealed and ready for the next phase. From here, it’s all about framing and drywall prep — the steps that turn an empty shell into a real, usable room.

This is the part of the project where things start to feel real. The studs are up, the shape of the room is defined, and before long drywall will be going in to complete the structure.

Why This Step Matters

• Energy efficiency – With insulation and framing in place, the garage will stay comfortable year-round.

• Durability – Proper framing sets the stage for everything that follows.

• Momentum – Passing inspections and framing walls means we’re right on schedule.

What’s Next

Up next: drywall installation. That’s when the space will really start to feel finished. The plan is to push this project across the finish line by the end of September — and we’re well on track.

Stay tuned for more updates as this build keeps moving forward.

Progress may not always happen overnight—but every day, every swing of the hammer, every shovel of dirt, and every brush of paint gets us closer to the finish line. Right now, we’ve got three major projects moving forward, and while it’s been steady (sometimes slow), the transformation is undeniable.

✅ Garage & Patio Build – The siding is about wrapped up and things are really starting to take shape. This build has been a big one, but watching it come together piece by piece has been worth it.

✅ Deck Replacement – The old deck is officially gone, post holes are dug, and we’re ready to start building something brand new. This one’s going to be a huge upgrade, and the prep work is laying the foundation for something awesome.

✅ Dream Secret Room – The drywall nightmare is finally behind us (and trust me, that’s a victory worth celebrating). Now we’re stepping into the fun part: homeowners are picking their perfect shade of green while we bring their vision to life with a custom fireplace and a one-of-a-kind desk. This space is about to become a hidden gem.

Here’s the truth: building something great takes time. But every day we keep pushing, every day we keep moving forward, and that’s how projects get done.

👉 And here’s the call to action: if you’re local and looking for some extra money, we’ve got at least a month’s worth of steady work. Swing a hammer, carry some boards, mix some mud—we could use the hands, and you’ll walk away with both a paycheck and the satisfaction of building something that lasts.

Progress is being made—and with the right people on board, it’ll keep moving strong.

At Mr. Clean Fix, there’s nothing like the energy that comes with the start of a big project—especially one that’s about to completely transform an outdoor space. Materials are starting to arrive for our latest build, and excitement is in the air! This time, we’re taking on the challenge of replacing a 9x35 deck with a stunning 12x36 upgrade, towering 10 feet off the ground. And that’s not all—beneath the new staircase, there will be an 8x8 ground-level deck, perfect for shaded seating or a cozy hangout spot. Today, we’re getting the prep work done while we wait for more materials to roll in. It’s a warm one—96 degrees—but nothing can cool our enthusiasm for what’s ahead. The before pictures (shared here) tell part of the story. But just wait until you see the “after”—a sturdy, beautiful space for relaxing, entertaining, and making memories. Every board we replace, every measurement we make, every bolt we tighten—it’s all part of building something that will be enjoyed for years to come. That’s what keeps us inspired, no matter the weather. As they say, “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” And this dream deck? It’s just getting started.

At Mr. Clean Fix, we don’t just build homes—we build spaces that matter. Each project is a new opportunity to create something meaningful for our clients, and we’re incredibly proud of the transformations currently unfolding.

Since our last update, the garage build took a big step forward with electrical installation now complete. Powering up that space was a major milestone and paves the way for what comes next.

Meanwhile, the bonus room project is in full swing—and it’s shaping up to be one of our favorite custom builds yet! We’ve:

• Completed all electrical work

• Laid the subfloor

• Are actively drywalling, texturing, and prepping to paint

But the real excitement? The custom desk build begins today. Paired with soon-to-be-installed custom fireplace and hardwood floors, this bonus room is going to be a showcase of detail and design.

We love what we do. Yes, the days are long. Yes, remodeling can be tough. But the satisfaction of seeing a project come to life keeps us energized.
