Garage Conversions
Turn your garage into a code-ready ADU
Garage conversions are the fastest, most cost-effective path to a livable ADU. We transform underused garages into permitted, comfortable living space — without starting from the ground up.
Why convert your garage?
You already have the footprint and the structure. A conversion skips the foundation and shell, which means a shorter timeline and a lower cost entry into ADU ownership — with the same code-ready result.

FAQ
Common questions
Is a garage conversion cheaper than a new ADU?
Typically yes. Reusing the existing structure avoids foundation and framing-from-scratch costs, lowering the overall budget.
How long does a conversion take?
Many garage conversions complete in 2–4 months after permits, depending on the scope of systems and finishes.
Will I lose my garage parking?
Conversion rules vary by city. We review local requirements and replacement-parking options during your consultation.
