He takes time to explain things and going shopping with him was a wonderful experience because he knows what works and is able to suggest items that will look good in your bathroom - my only regret is that I had shopped for my bathroom items before I met him. However he still made the whole design work. A huge shoutout to Wjotek for doing the work. I’ve never seen someone so detail oriented and so meticulous in their work. I would recommend Sanrad Design and Greg to anyone looking to remodel their bathrooms. Just don’t go shopping first before you meet Greg!"

"In the end, our new patio turned out great. However, the company initially failed to obtain the required permits, causing a cascade of delays. There were a series of problems resulting from a lack of a project design blueprint and unexpected changes in paver prices that cause delays and increased the cost of the project. in the end we ended up with a much nicer patio, but a project that lasted nearly 2 weeks instead of four days and cost an additional $10 per square foot."

FAQs for addition and remodeling projects in Waukegan, IL

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.
