Garage Conversion ADUs in Sacramento: What You Need to Know Before Starting

Your unused garage could be the key to unlocking more living space, rental income, or a home office. Garage conversions into ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) are gaining popularity throughout Sacramento—and for good reason.

Why Convert a Garage into an ADU?

  • Cost-effective: You’re building on an existing structure.
  • Quicker permits compared to ground-up construction.
  • No need to sacrifice backyard space.
  • High ROI if used as a rental.

Key Considerations:

  1. Zoning & Permits
    Sacramento has streamlined the process, but proper permitting is still essential. Our team handles the paperwork so you don’t have to.
  2. Utilities and Insulation
    Garages often need upgraded plumbing, electrical, and insulation to meet code. We provide full-service upgrades.
  3. Design Matters
    Even a small space can feel open, bright, and welcoming with the right layout. Our architectural team ensures beauty meets function.
  4. Cost Estimates
    Conversion costs can vary. Most garage ADUs in Sacramento range from $80,000 to $150,000, depending on size, finishes, and structural needs.
