Structural Framing and Foundation Reinforcement Work
Structural stability is the backbone of every successful garage conversion, and our team ensures your ADU or JADU is built on a foundation that lasts for decades. Many existing garages were never designed for full-time living, which is why reinforcing the framing and foundation is essential for safety, durability, and code compliance.
We begin with a detailed structural assessment to identify any weaknesses, load-bearing limitations, or seismic risks. From there, we upgrade foundation footings, install new wall framing, and enhance structural connections to meet California building standards. Our work includes seismic retrofitting, moisture protection, roof strengthening, and load-distribution improvements. With experienced engineers and skilled builders, we transform your garage into a solid, secure living space capable of supporting kitchens, bathrooms, electrical systems, and everyday use. Strength, safety, and long-term performance are always our top priorities.
- Wall, attic, and floor insulation
- Dual-pane energy-efficient windows
- Air sealing and moisture control
- Quiet HVAC and ventilation systems
