Garage Conversion ADU
We specialize in transforming underused garages into fully functional Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) that increase livable space and boost property value. We work throughout Los Angeles and nearby cities to help homeowners legally convert their garages into complete living environments that meet all applicable zoning and code regulations. Our experience includes detached and attached garages, front-of-lot and rear-lot conversions, as well as challenging hillside or narrow-lot properties. Whether your goal is to create additional housing or modernize your existing structure for more practical use, we provide an organized, transparent, and professionally managed construction experience.

Tailored to Your Property & Lifestyle
Every property and homeowner has unique needs. We tailor each garage conversion project to match your design preferences, utility goals, and long-term plans. Our designs are sensitive to existing site conditions, access limitations, and structural constraints. Whether the goal is a private suite for a family member, a separate rental unit, or a creative studio space, we help optimize every square foot to serve your needs.
Our Garage Conversion Process
- Site Evaluation: We assess the structural condition of your garage and its potential for conversion.
- Design & Planning: Our team develops a layout that complies with ADU codes while fitting your needs and budget.
- Permitting: We handle all city submissions and approvals, from structural to energy compliance.
- Construction: We manage the entire build, including insulation, plumbing, electric, HVAC, and finishes.
- Final Inspection & Handoff: After inspections, your new garage ADU is move-in ready and built to last.
