“The garage-to-ADU conversion detail that most contractors skip: thermal envelope. A garage was never designed to be conditioned space. The slab has no insulation. The walls have no insulation. You need to address this before installing HVAC or your utility bills will be double what the tenants expected. Rigid insulation under a new finish floor is the correct approach.”
Get a title report before converting a garage to an ADU. Some properties have recorded Conditions, Covenants, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) from original tract development that prohibit residential use of detached garage structures. These CC&Rs are separate from zoning and LADBS rules — they're private law that runs with the land.
The most common garage conversion mistakes in North Hollywood are: selecting a contractor based on price alone without verifying CSLB license and insurance, approving change orders verbally rather than in writing, and starting work before permits are issued. All three create financial and legal exposure that's avoidable with careful contractor selection and contract management.
