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, we believe progress is more than just a visual transformation—it’s a mindset. And this week, that mindset was on full display as we tackled two different jobs, both at key turning points in their journey from concept to completion.

In the first project, we're continuing our work on a garage and patio build. The framing is up, the structure is taking shape, and you can already begin to see how this addition will enhance the home's functionality and curb appeal. Every day brings a new milestone, from sheeting to structure—and it’s a great reminder that even the biggest projects are built one board, one nail, one hot summer morning at a time.

Just up north in Spirit Lake, we’ve been making major progress on an exterior wall remodel, where we’re adding a slider to create more natural light, better flow, and greater access to the outdoors. Yesterday, the wall was opened up, framed in, and we’re well on our way to giving this space a brand-new feel. It’s always exciting to watch something as simple as a doorway completely change how a room lives and breathes.

Both of these jobs are at that satisfying “it’s coming together” stage—and they’re a great reminder that progress rarely happens overnight. Whether you're building from scratch or modifying what's already there, every step forward adds up to something bigger.

Here’s to progress, patience, and the payoff that comes with consistent, quality work.

In the world of home renovations and construction projects, there's a powerful tool that often gets overlooked: progress photos.
