A garage conversion can reclaim space you already own, but it needs more than drywall and flooring. We help think through insulation, egress, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, flooring, storage, fire separation, and transitions so the converted space feels comfortable and connected to the home.
Saratoga’s Accessory Dwelling Units guide addresses conversions of existing floor area in a main or accessory structure and outlines planning review, building permit submittal, inspections, and occupancy.

We use those official resources to frame early questions; the City and the project design team determine final requirements.
