Project Overview

This Garage conversion to ADU construction project revitalized the existing structure with new framing, foundation improvements, and upgraded utilities while maintaining the home’s original charm. Designed for long-term durability and comfort, the remodel seamlessly integrated updated finishes and energy-efficient systems to create a bright, functional, and contemporary living space.

Scope of Work

Challenges & Solutions

The project required careful coordination between structural and architectural elements, particularly during the roof-raising and foundation stages. Working around existing utilities and limited site access demanded precision trenching and phased scheduling. Our team maintained open communication with city inspectors and the client to ensure compliance with all safety and energy regulations. By sequencing the work efficiently and implementing dust-control and waste-management protocols, we kept the project on time and environmentally responsible.

Result

The completed remodel transformed the residence into a refreshed, resilient, and stylish home. Enhanced structural integrity, modern electrical and plumbing systems, and high-quality finishes provide a renewed sense of comfort and value. The raised ceilings, bright interiors, and cohesive material palette create a welcoming environment that combines craftsmanship with lasting performance—reflecting the client’s vision of a modern yet timeless renovation.
