ADU & Garage Conversion Plans
ADU & garage conversion plans.
Whether you are converting a garage, adding a guest suite, or planning an accessory dwelling unit, the drawing package needs to account for existing conditions, layout, egress, utilities, parking, setbacks, and local permit requirements.
Living-space details
Plan bathrooms, kitchens, egress, ceiling heights, storage, privacy, and rental or guest-suite flow.
Local rule check
Accessory unit rules vary by city, including parking, setbacks, utilities, and detached-unit requirements.
Start with the existing structure.
ADU and garage conversion plans depend heavily on the current building. Ceiling heights, slab conditions, exterior openings, windows, utilities, existing framing, setbacks, and parking rules can all affect what drawings are needed and whether engineering or local professional review may be required.
For the fastest quote, send photos of the garage or accessory structure, approximate dimensions, desired rooms, bathroom or kitchen needs, utility notes, and your city or county. If you have a survey or existing plans, include those too.
Drawing package options
Plans may include existing/proposed layouts, elevations, window and door notes, bathroom/kitchen fixture placement, accessibility or egress notes, and permit coordination. Detached ADUs may require additional site and utility coordination.
