Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights installed a large Velux skylight for me in August 2017. The entire experience was wonderful and the skylight is beautiful, both functionally and aesthetically. Janet made sure the work was scheduled to be completed before a trip I had planned. Jimmy measured carefully when he quoted the work and even accommodated a last minute change on the location when he arrived to do the work. They protected my new floors and were careful to keep dust to a minimum. Archie came by to ensure that all was going smoothly. Freddy helped matched the stain on my nearly 70 year old tongue and grove ceiling that really took some effort and he even matched some a few small spots that a previous contractor had sanded and removed the original stain. EVERYONE was cheerful and knowledgeable. Now, my little mid century house has emerged into the light!
Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights replaced two aging skylights in our bedroom and installed automatic blinds on four skylights. This was not an easy job, since our bedroom has very very high cathedral ceilings. In fact, one other skylight installer refused to do the job altogether, and a second made a bid that was almost twice as expensive as Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights. Janet Mares, who was our main contact for the job, was a pleasure to work with. Her son, Jimmy, who led the installation, was fearless climbing the ceiling, and he eally knew his stuff. We’re thrilled with our new and improved skylights, and we appreciate Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights’ solid, reasonably priced, work. Thanks guys!
I’ve had Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights install 3 sun tunnels in my home and most recently, 2 skylights in my garage/art studio. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the quality of their work and professionalism! All my communications with their office and installers have been extremely pleasant. I would use them again (and again) and highly recommend them to anyone looking to install Velux skylights/sun tunnels in their home!
Being a new homeowner, i really did my research before having someone come out and give me a quote on a skylight. You never know what to believe when you read yelp reviews. So, i went ahead and had Jimmy from mares and dow come out and give me an estimate. He was right on time, came out and measured and was very professional while he was here. Janet called me a few days later and sent me over an estimate. I went them them and couldn’t be happier. It arrived in the time frame she had told me, and they were out that week. The workers came out on time, and were very friendly and professional. Dennis ( one of the owners) came out as well and checked on the job. The went above and beyond with their work. The skylight looks beautiful! Night and day from the old one. If you are wanting a skylight, i strongly reccomend going with mare and dow
We had Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights install a Velux skylight in our new master bathroom. The space was small and dark, so Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights suggested a big skylight to add in lots of natural light. They built in a double crown molding to beautifully frame the skylight, and now the space is open and airy with wonderful natural light. We can open the skylight during warm months to let in fresh air. It was a superb addition to our bathroom renovation and a great suggestion from Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights. They did a fantastic job and were great to work with! Thanks guys!

Every homeowner has different goals for their garage, which is why Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights Inc. offers fully customized remodeling solutions. Whether you’re updating an aging garage, improving storage and organization, or creating a versatile space that better supports your lifestyle, our experienced team delivers quality craftsmanship from concept to completion. We work with garages of all sizes and architectural styles, designing practical solutions that enhance functionality, comfort, and long-term value.
If your garage no longer meets your needs, we can transform it into a clean, modern, and highly functional extension of your home. From demolition and structural improvements to the finishing touches, we manage every phase of your renovation with careful attention to detail.
An organized garage starts with smart storage. We design and install custom cabinetry, shelving, overhead storage systems, workbenches, and built-in organization features that maximize available space while reducing clutter.
Your garage floor should be durable, attractive, and easy to maintain. We install high-quality flooring options that resist stains, moisture, and everyday wear while giving your garage a clean, finished appearance.
As licensed General and Electrical Contractors, we can upgrade your garage’s lighting and electrical systems to improve safety, convenience, and functionality. Whether you need brighter LED lighting, additional outlets, dedicated circuits, or electrical service for power tools or equipment, our team has the expertise to complete the work safely and efficiently.
Many garages become uncomfortable during hot summers and cool winters. We can improve insulation, ventilation, weather sealing, and energy efficiency to create a space that’s more comfortable year-round while helping protect stored belongings.
Whether you’re a woodworker, automotive enthusiast, artist, or DIY hobbyist, we can design a garage layout that supports your interests. Custom workstations, durable surfaces, specialized storage, and optimized lighting help create an efficient workspace tailored to your activities.
More homeowners are converting part of their garage into fitness rooms, recreation areas, or flexible multi-use spaces. We help you maximize available square footage while maintaining storage and functionality for everyday living.
For many families, the garage serves as the primary entrance to the home. We can improve this transition with upgraded flooring, built-in storage, mudroom-style organization, improved lighting, and attractive finishes that create a welcoming entry every day.
If your garage has aging framing, moisture issues, deteriorated finishes, or other structural issues, our experienced remodeling team can address them before beginning cosmetic upgrades. Starting with a solid foundation helps ensure your remodeled garage performs beautifully for years to come.
Every garage remodeling project begins with understanding how you use your space today—and how you’d like it to function tomorrow. Our collaborative design-build approach allows us to recommend practical improvements that align with your vision, budget, and long-term goals while delivering exceptional craftsmanship throughout every phase of construction.

Every homeowner has a different vision for their garage. Some want a cleaner, more organized place to park their vehicles, while others are looking to create a dedicated workspace, fitness area, or flexible extension of their home. At Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights Inc., we customize every garage remodeling project to fit your lifestyle, budget, and long-term goals. With more than 40 years of remodeling experience, we help Benicia homeowners maximize the value and functionality of one of the most overlooked spaces in the home.
One of the most requested garage improvements is better organization. We design custom storage solutions that make it easy to keep tools, seasonal decorations, sporting equipment, gardening supplies, and household items neatly arranged and easily accessible.
Popular storage features include:
A well-designed storage system helps eliminate clutter while making your garage easier to maintain.
For homeowners who enjoy woodworking, automotive projects, crafts, or DIY home improvements, a dedicated workshop can make all the difference. We create efficient workspaces with durable finishes, improved lighting, additional electrical outlets, custom cabinetry, and practical layouts that allow you to work comfortably and safely.
Many Benicia residents are transforming unused garage space into private fitness rooms. A garage gym offers the convenience of exercising at home while keeping workout equipment organized and separate from your main living areas.
Depending on your goals, your remodel may include:
Today’s garages often serve multiple functions beyond vehicle storage. We help homeowners design flexible layouts that combine parking, storage, hobbies, laundry, and recreation into one organized space without sacrificing functionality.
A multi-purpose garage may include designated zones for:
Replacing worn concrete with attractive, durable flooring instantly improves both the appearance and usability of your garage. Modern flooring materials are easier to clean, resist stains, and provide long-lasting performance for busy households.
Garage flooring upgrades also create a more finished appearance that complements the rest of your home.
Poor lighting can make any garage feel cramped and difficult to use. As licensed General and Electrical Contractors, we can install brighter LED lighting, task lighting over workstations, additional outlets, dedicated circuits, and upgraded electrical systems that support modern tools, appliances, and charging stations.
Improving insulation, weather sealing, and ventilation helps create a more comfortable environment throughout the year. These upgrades are especially beneficial for homeowners who spend significant time in their garages or use the space as a workshop, hobby room, or home gym.
Sometimes the best solution is a full renovation. From structural improvements and custom finishes to new layouts and upgraded materials, we can completely transform an outdated garage into one of the most practical and valuable spaces in your home.
Our comprehensive garage remodeling services can include:
No matter the size or complexity of your project, our team is committed to delivering quality craftsmanship, honest communication, and personalized service from start to finish.

A successful garage remodel starts long before construction begins. Taking time to carefully evaluate how you use your garage today—and how you’d like to use it in the future—helps create a space that is both functional and built to meet your long-term needs. Whether you’re planning a simple organization upgrade or a complete transformation, thoughtful planning ensures every square foot is put to good use.
At Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights Inc., we guide Benicia homeowners through every stage of the remodeling process. Our collaborative approach allows us to develop customized solutions that align with your lifestyle, budget, and vision while delivering the exceptional craftsmanship we’ve been known for throughout the Bay Area for more than 40 years.
The first step is deciding what purpose your remodeled garage will serve. While many garages continue to provide vehicle storage, today’s homeowners often expect much more from the space.
Ask yourself questions such as:
Understanding your priorities helps shape the overall design and remodeling plan.
One of the biggest frustrations homeowners face is garage clutter. Before remodeling begins, take inventory of everything currently stored in your garage and determine what should remain there.
Custom storage solutions may include:
Designing storage around your specific belongings creates a cleaner and more efficient space.
If you spend time working, exercising, or pursuing hobbies in your garage, comfort should be part of your remodeling plan.
Many homeowners choose upgrades such as:
These improvements help make your garage usable throughout every season.
Your family’s needs may change over time. A garage remodel should provide flexibility that allows the space to adapt as your lifestyle evolves.
For example, today’s workshop could become tomorrow’s home gym, hobby room, or organized storage area. Designing with flexibility in mind helps maximize the long-term value of your investment.
Garages experience constant traffic from vehicles, tools, equipment, and everyday household use. Choosing durable materials helps reduce maintenance while ensuring your remodeled garage continues to look great for years.
Quality materials can provide:
Our team recommends products that balance performance, aesthetics, and long-term value.
Lighting has a significant impact on both safety and usability. Many older garages have limited overhead lighting, making everyday tasks more difficult.
A well-designed lighting plan may include:
As licensed General and Electrical Contractors, we can safely upgrade your garage’s electrical system while improving visibility throughout the space.
Garage remodeling involves much more than installing cabinets or replacing flooring. Structural modifications, electrical work, insulation, finish carpentry, ventilation, and overall project coordination all require experienced professionals.
Choosing an established contractor provides confidence that every phase of your project will be completed safely, efficiently, and with exceptional attention to detail. At Mares & Dow Construction & Skylights Inc., we believe honest communication, quality craftsmanship, and personalized service are the foundation of every successful remodeling project.
Every garage is different, which is why we begin each project with a personalized consultation.
