Project

Storage-to-ADU transformation in Lake Forest

This ADU project in Lake Forest converted an underutilized storage structure into a fully equipped, modern residential unit. The homeowners wanted a functional, code-compliant living space, so we handled site preparation, foundation work, framing, and new plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems to make it livable. The finished ADU includes an open-concept living area, a compact kitchen, a bedroom, and a full bathroom.

The Homeowners’ Goals

The homeowners wanted to turn an underutilized storage structure into a fully functional, modern living space.

Our Approach & Work Completed

We converted the existing storage structure into a fully equipped residential unit, starting with site preparation, foundation work, and framing.

We installed new plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems, along with energy-efficient windows, insulation, and smart home technology.

We finished the interior with hardwood flooring, cabinetry, and ceramic countertops across an open-concept living area, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom.
