"I went with this company and they did not disappoint. They worked within my timeframe, under short notice, and unloaded a 20 ft U-haul very quickly. I was worried about getting a very wide couch down my narrow stairs into my basement, but they just popped some doors off and back on and made it look easy. 10/10 would hire them again."

"Charged double the original estimate to *prep brick* so the job would be durable and the paint would not fail. Brick started bleeding through less than a year after job was completed.

"I would highly recommend this for exterior paint jobs. Keenan (owner) was professional, thorough, and detail oriented. He promptly responds to text messages and accommodates last minute changes. My wife and I are so pleased with the result. He replaced rotting boards, sanded and caulked, masked, and painted our trim, shutters, door, and shakes. As a comparison, we had our house painted a few years ago by another company and the quality of the workmanship by Keenan is far superior. I wish I had “before” pictures. Best of all, his pricing was extremely competitive. I would definitely use his company for future projects, including interior renovations based on this experience."

"What a project! The initial plan to expand our lake house and add a level turned into a total rebuild due to discovery of standing water and rot. This project landed during the COVID pandemic and met with some unavoidable delays. Throughout the project my husband and I met with Matt and Steve regularly (weekly). Matt was always organized providing a list of items we needed to discuss, decisions that needed to be made and timelines for next steps. Matt and Steve consistently offered many ideas for ways to achieve what was important to us (kitchen layout with view to lake, beverage area, ample work surface, closed laundry area etc.), finish options (siding, roofing), lighting options etc. Though the project took longer than planned (thank you COVID), the result is a beautiful, comfortable home. We are very happy with the end result!"

The typical timeline for completing a garage-to-ADU conversion spans approximately three to six months, encompassing planning, permitting, construction, and final inspections. Projects requiring substantial structural modifications or encountering material delivery delays may extend beyond this timeframe. Working with an experienced general contractor who efficiently coordinates various trades and maintains consistent progress can significantly improve project efficiency and reduce unnecessary delays.
Converting a garage into an ADU typically requires obtaining building permits and potentially specialized electrical, plumbing, and mechanical approvals. Requirements vary significantly between jurisdictions, making consultation with local planning departments essential. Most municipalities mandate specific features, including dedicated entrances, proper emergency egress windows, and verification that the structure meets current residential safety standards. Proceeding without proper authorization risks potential penalties and complications during future property transactions.
California has implemented some of the nation's most supportive ADU regulations to address housing availability challenges. Recent legislation has streamlined approval processes, and local jurisdictions generally must approve projects meeting state guidelines. Nevertheless, individual municipalities may impose additional specific requirements regarding design, parking, or utility connections. Consulting with your local planning department remains essential for understanding the particular regulations applicable to your property.
Converting a garage to an ADU typically increases your property's assessed value, resulting in higher property tax obligations. The specific tax implications depend on your local assessment methods and how substantially the improvements enhance your property's value. While this represents an additional ongoing expense, many property owners find that potential rental income or increased property marketability offsets these higher tax obligations over time.
To qualify as a legal ADU, your converted garage must typically include a separate entrance, functional kitchen facilities, a complete bathroom, adequate natural light, proper ventilation systems, and full compliance with local building codes. Emergency egress provisions and appropriate climate control systems are also generally required. Many jurisdictions establish minimum and maximum size parameters, making consultation with your local building department essential for ensuring your conversion meets all legal requirements.
For many property owners, the potential rental income from a converted garage ADU makes the investment financially worthwhile. Monthly rental payments can help offset mortgage obligations or fund additional property improvements. The actual profitability depends on various factors, including local rental demand, the quality and size of your converted space, and your ability to maintain consistent occupancy. With careful planning and quality execution, many homeowners recover a substantial portion of their investment through ongoing rental revenue.
