Planning Your Garage Conversion in Kansas City

Converting your garage into living space is one of the smartest ways to add square footage without the expense of a full addition. Whether you need a home office for remote work, an ADU for rental income, or extra living space for a growing family, garage conversions offer incredible potential for Kansas City homeowners.

"Garages are some of the most underutilized spaces in Kansas City homes. When we convert a garage, we're not just adding square footage - we're creating opportunities. Whether it's rental income from an ADU, a dedicated workspace for your business, or a place for aging parents to live independently, garage conversions can be life-changing for families."
— Bob Coulston, Owner, Coulston Construction

As the best garage conversion contractor in Kansas City with hundreds of 5-star reviews, our 4th generation family business with over 30 employees has been transforming garages for decades. We understand the unique challenges of Kansas City's climate and building codes, ensuring your conversion is comfortable, legal, and built to last.

Proper planning is essential for successful garage conversions. We'll assess your garage's structure, plan for insulation and climate control, and ensure all work meets local building codes. From basic finishing to full ADU development, we handle every aspect of your conversion project.

Structural & Climate Control Requirements

Garage conversions require significant upgrades to meet residential standards. The concrete floor must be insulated or raised to match your home's level. Walls need proper insulation and moisture barriers. The garage door opening requires framing for windows or doors.

Climate control is crucial for Kansas City's hot summers and cold winters. We'll extend your HVAC system or install a mini-split system for independent temperature control. Proper insulation in walls, ceiling, and floor ensures energy efficiency and comfort.

Electrical upgrades include adding outlets, lighting, and potentially a sub-panel for adequate power. For ADUs or guest suites, we'll run plumbing for bathrooms and kitchenettes, ensuring proper drainage and water supply.

ADU Development & Rental Income Potential

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are increasingly popular in Kansas City as they provide rental income or multi-generational living options. A well-designed garage ADU can rent for $800-1,500 per month, helping offset your mortgage or providing retirement income.

Kansas City allows ADUs in many neighborhoods, though regulations vary. We'll help navigate zoning requirements, ensure proper permits, and design a space that maximizes rental appeal while maintaining your property's character.

Key features for successful ADUs include private entrances, full bathrooms, efficient kitchenettes, and separate utilities. We'll create a space that feels like a complete home while respecting your privacy and property boundaries.
