Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • Do I need a permit to remodel or convert my garage?

     Yes. Structural changes, plumbing, or converting to a living space will typically require a permit. We handle all permitting and ensure full compliance with local laws.

  • How long does a garage remodel take?

     Most projects take 2 to 5 weeks, depending on scope. A simple flooring and storage upgrade may take just a few days, while full conversions take longer.

  • Can I use my garage during the remodel?

    We’ll let you know which phases may require access restrictions. We work to minimize disruption and maintain a clean, organized worksite.

  • What type of flooring is best for garage remodels?

    Epoxy coatings, tile, luxury vinyl plank, or sealed concrete are great choices — durable, moisture-resistant, and easy to clean.

  • Can I convert my garage into a legal rental unit (ADU)?

     In many cases, yes — especially in California. We’ll review zoning rules and help ensure your garage conversion qualifies as an ADU.
