Plumbing Integration in Converted Garages

Integrating plumbing into a converted garage requires careful planning to connect new fixtures with your home's existing system without disruption. We assess the location of current water supply lines and drainage to minimize invasive work while ensuring code compliance.

Our process includes installing durable PEX or copper piping to handle water efficiently and prevent leaks. We also ensure proper venting and trap placement to avoid plumbing issues common in retrofit spaces. This approach allows us to add bathrooms, kitchens, or laundry areas without compromising the structural integrity of the garage.

Upgrading Existing Water and Sewer Lines

Many garages were never designed for residential plumbing demands, so upgrading water and sewer lines is crucial. We evaluate pipe condition and capacity, often replacing outdated galvanized or PVC pipes with modern materials like chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) or cross-linked polyethylene (PEX).

We also inspect sewer line connections for functionality and compliance with local plumbing codes specific to accessory dwelling units. This includes ensuring correct slope for drainage and installing backflow prevention devices when required. These upgrades safeguard long-term performance and prevent costly repairs.

Retrofitting for Modern Fixtures and Appliances

Retrofitting garages involves adapting plumbing to support contemporary fixtures such as tankless water heaters, low-flow toilets, and energy-efficient faucets. We install water-efficient systems to reduce utility costs while meeting California’s strict water usage standards.

In addition to water-efficient fixtures, we ensure connections for appliances like washer/dryers and dishwashers are properly plumbed. Our work includes installing shut-off valves and accessible cleanouts to simplify maintenance and future repairs, creating practical, code-compliant plumbing setups within the confined space of converted garages.
