What Our Clients Say About Working With Us
Why Choose Us
Why Tampa Bay Families Choose Us for Garage Conversion
We are local to Pinellas, Hillsborough, and Pasco counties,
Working across Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and the surrounding towns.
A conversion only counts as living space if the inspector agrees it is,
Which is why clients write about the paperwork as much as the build:
They navigated the complex city permitting process.
Certified General Contractor in Florida since 2016, license CGC1537676,
With $1,000,000 in liability coverage and workers’ compensation.
The first consultation is free and takes about an hour.
We measure the garage, check the ceiling height and slab fall,
Talk through what the room could be, and leave you with a written quote.
Turning a garage into living space always needs a permit, and sometimes a zoning check.
We file through a private provider rather than the county alone,
So approvals come faster, and we meet the inspectors ourselves.
How Your Garage Conversion Runs
These five stages are how we keep it straightforward:
Walkthrough and Free Estimate
We measure the ceiling height, the slab fall, where the panel is, and whether the HVAC can carry another room,
Then price the work to your budget.
Design and Permit Drawings
Our designer lays out the room, and the drawings include the required egress and insulation values.
You see it drawn before anything is submitted.
Permits and Zoning
We file through a private provider and chase the approval ourselves.
This is the stage that stalls most garage conversions and is the reason people give up on them.
Build, With Daily Updates
Photos every day in a group text while the room takes shape.
If we open a wall and find the framing, the wiring, or the slab needs more than we priced, you get the photo that day and a figure before we carry on.
Nothing gets closed up until you have seen it.
And we sweep clean at the end of each day.
Inspection and Final Walkthrough
Final inspection signed off, so the room is legally living space, not a garage with carpet in it.
Final payment comes only once you are happy with it.
Two hundred to four hundred square feet you are currently parking in.
On its own, or as part of a whole home remodel.
With an egress window, a closet, and a bathroom if the plumbing can reach.
The conversion that actually changes what your house is worth.
Insulated, air conditioned, and quiet enough to take a call in.
The simplest version of this job, and the quickest.
A kitchenette, a full bathroom, and its own entrance.
Rentable where the zoning allows it, which we check before you commit.
Walls and ceiling insulated to code, a window someone could climb out of,
And conditioned air that doesn’t come from a portable unit.
These three are what the inspector actually looks for.
A garage slab sits low and slopes to the door, so it gets built up and leveled.
With a moisture barrier, because it was never meant to be a floor you walk on barefoot.
Framed, insulated, and finished outside to match the house.
Done properly, nobody can tell there was ever a garage door there.
Tell Us What You Want the Garage to Be.
The Estimate Is Free.
Do I need a permit to convert a garage?
Yes, always, and sometimes a zoning check as well. We file through a private provider and meet the inspectors ourselves, which is the part that usually stalls.
Will I still have somewhere to park?
Some areas require replacement parking before they will approve the conversion. We check that at the walkthrough rather than after you have paid for drawings.
How long does a garage conversion take?
Four to eight weeks of building once the permit is issued, and the permit is the part that varies. You get both dates when you sign.
What does a garage conversion cost?
We price each garage individually, with clear upfront pricing rather than a vague range, and tailor the scope to your budget. The estimate is free.
Does it add value to the house?
It adds square footage, which is what an appraiser counts, but only if it is permitted and signed off. An unpermitted conversion can count against you instead.
What warranty do I get?
One year on our labor. Anything needing attention is ours to put right.
