Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs)
Converting an attached garage into an ADU can provide a private living area with a bedroom, bathroom, and small kitchen. We help plan efficient use of space and include separate entrances to keep privacy for both the main home and the ADU.
Adding features like soundproof walls and proper insulation is key. We also help clients with permits and local building codes to make sure the ADU is legal and safe. These units can be used for rental income or multi-generational living.
Home Offices and Studios
A garage conversion is an ideal way to create a quiet home office or art studio. We focus on installing large windows or skylights to provide natural light, improving work conditions and mood.
We design built-in storage and adjustable lighting to meet your work or creative needs. Soundproofing and good ventilation are also important so the space stays comfortable for long hours. Electrical outlets are placed for easy use of computers and tools.
Family Rooms and Guest Suites
Transforming a garage into a family room or guest suite makes your home more welcoming. We create open layouts with cozy seating areas, and sometimes include a fireplace or media setup for entertainment.
For guest suites, we add closets and bathrooms with showers. We focus on maintaining proper heating and cooling to keep the space comfortable year-round. This option adds extra living space without expanding your home's footprint.
