Tacoma Garage Conversion Project: Old Garage to Brand New DADU - Tacoma, WA

As soon as the new DADU / ADU rules were implemented in 2019 we began searching for a new property with a decent sized garage that we could design and convert into a DADU. In the summer of 2019 we found the perfect property in Tacoma’s Proctor district, and after a long and tedious sale our offer was eventually accepted. Our first step in the process was remodeling the main house, which you can see you here. Once we finished that up, we began planning, designing and permitting for the garage conversion.

The Neal's Custom Deck Project - Tacoma, WA

The Neal’s custom deck project was completed in the summer of 2020 and is located right here in North Tacoma. The best part of the build is that the job was located only 10 blocks away from our shop, so the commute was pretty great! The deck itself is built with a beautiful South American hardwood called Ipe, that we treated with aptly named Ipe Oil. The decks overall footprint is 16’ x 18’, including the wrap around step. The step has 9 bronze dimmable LED step lights to help illuminate the space in the evenings and make the steps easy to see in the dark.

Erin and Tyler's Backyard Office Project - Tacoma, WA

We first met Erin + Tyler a few years ago when they called us out to give them a bid on a fence project for their new home in North Tacoma. Our estimate consultation was awesome! We really connected on our love for modern design and quality materials. After the meeting we sent over our bid and Erin and Tyler decided they wanted to go ahead with the fence project. We put it on the schedule and knocked it out a couple months later.

The Durango Remodel Project - Tacoma, WA

Towards the end of the 2019 we took on this little 770 SQ FT mid century home remodel in Tacoma’s Proctor district and gave it much needed facelift. We started out by completely gutting the kitchen and widening the entry into the living room. Then we fully redesigned the kitchen by creating a more functional layout with an updated modern look. For the living area, we wanted to make the fireplace a focal point so we started by removing the ugly fireplace insert, painted wood above the mantle and dark tile in the front. Then we installed a new horizontal modern wood built-in above the fireplace with new white tile down below. The final touches involved sanding and refinishing the original oak floors and installing updated modern trim throughout the house.
