Garage Conversions
If you are looking to add an extra bedroom or a spare kitchen to your home, converting your garage to a bedroom or kitchen can be an easy way to have extra living space. Limited space means that you may not be able to have a large room, but you can still easily convert your garage to a family room by installing partitions to separate the carport from the living space, installing heating, cooling and plumbing systems. Install a new phone extension, and you now have a fully functional family room that's warm, bright and welcoming.
When you plan your garage addition, make sure you have a clear picture of what you want to use your garage for. For instance, if you're looking to convert your garage into a home theater, expect additional expenses on electrical wiring to support the new system. If you're converting your garage into a kitchen, plumbing and electrical fixtures will be needed. A garage kitchen addition will involve the installation of heavy duty appliances like deep freezers, and these may demand additional wiring requirements. Always remember to include a small storage closet in your garage to be used for storage.
Look into local San Francisco, CA area building code requirements before you begin your garage addition project. You may not always be able to convert your garage for a specific purpose. Make sure all building permits are in place before you begin converting your garage. Plan your garage addition at least the few months before work begins to ensure a hassle free project.

I have a bathtub/shower combo with some cabinets directly abover it making for a very enclosed space that I would like to completely redo. I envision having the cabintes above the shower/tub gutted and then a new shower/tub with nice large tile and new faucet/shower fixtures and a couple of recessed lights placed in above the bathing space. Thank you kindly for your time. I am open to any ideas.
