What's included

What a proper garage conversion requires

A garage isn't built like a house, slab is uninsulated, walls are thin, ceiling is exposed. Doing it right means addressing every one of those, plus code requirements.

Insulation and Drywall

Walls, ceiling, and slab insulation. Drywall, taping, and a finish that matches the rest of the home.

HVAC

Mini-split or extension of existing HVAC. We size it correctly so the space is comfortable year-round.

Plumbing (if ADU)

If you're adding a bathroom or kitchenette, plumbing comes through the slab, sized and routed for code.

Lighting and Electrical

Recessed lights, switching for the new use case, and a panel review to make sure the load is supported.

Flooring

Engineered hardwood, LVP, or polished concrete. We level the slab and add moisture barriers as needed.

Code Compliance

Egress windows, ceiling height, smoke and CO detection, fire separation if attached. Every detail to code.

A to Z did a fantastic job with our kitchen remodel. We have a 100-year-old Spanish style home and wanted to keep a lot of the original elements — Zack and Rami really listened and helped us figure out how to get it just right. Couldn't be happier with our new kitchen.

★★★★★
A to Z built a beautiful ADU in our backyard. The project was on budget and the results were better than we had hoped. Rami and Zack were a consistent and communicative presence at the job site. We looked at 10 firms in total and are so pleased we chose A to Z.

★★★★★
A to Z, lead by Rami and Zach, are the absolute best. My bathroom remodel was complicated and they worked meticulously to make our vision a reality. They communicated well, showed up on time, left the work site clean every day. No problem was too hard and the work they did was beautiful.
Abby H.Bathroom Remodel · Agoura Hills · Yelp
★★★★★
We interviewed several contractors and hired A to Z. Couldn't be more pleased with the results! Two bathrooms, new lighting, a new roof, HVAC, windows, flooring, and paint. From the start they gave us clear and honest advice, and the work speaks for itself. Highly recommended!!

I have used A to Z's services twice. Most recently they rebuilt my home after a house fire. The estimates were reasonable and thorough. Many of the skilled workers on the A to Z team have been with the company for years and it's clear they take pride in their work. Their estimates are honest.

Zack, Rami and their crew did a fantastic job! Full renovation for two 1950's bathrooms that came out beautifully. Reasonable price especially in comparison to the other company I contacted. Trustworthy company with frequent updates from Zack who also provided invaluable input and suggestions. Highly recommend!
