Turn your underused garage into a fully finished, code-compliant living space. Cascade Pro, Inc specializes in garage-to-living-space conversions throughout Puyallup and Pierce County — handling design, permits, construction, and final inspection.
Whether you want a rental unit, guest suite, home office, or in-law apartment, a garage conversion is one of the most cost-effective ways to add usable square footage to your Puyallup property.
Every garage is different, and so is every conversion. Here are the most common projects we take on:
Converting a standalone garage into a separate living unit. This is ideal for rental income or housing a family member with full privacy and independence. We add a bathroom, kitchenette or full kitchen, bedroom area, and separate entrance.
Transforming an attached garage into an extension of your home — a bedroom suite, family room, home office, or in-law apartment. We seal the garage door opening, match finishes to the existing home, and ensure seamless integration.
If you want to keep some garage storage or parking space, we can convert a portion of the garage while preserving the rest. This works well for larger two- or three-car garages.
Sometimes a garage conversion works best when combined with a small addition to meet size or layout requirements. We can extend the footprint if your lot and zoning allow it.
Every garage conversion project follows a structured process to keep timelines tight and surprises to a minimum:
A garage conversion is often the fastest and most affordable way to add a living space to your property — the structure, foundation, and roof are already there. Puyallup has experienced steady growth and is one of Pierce County’s most popular family communities. The city’s mix of historic homes and newer developments creates diverse opportunities for home improvement projects.
Garage conversions in Puyallup are generally more affordable than ground-up construction because the shell — foundation, walls, and roof — already exists. However, costs vary based on the scope of work and the condition of the existing structure.
Key factors that influence your project budget:
We provide transparent, line-item estimates after evaluating your specific garage. No surprises — you’ll know what to expect before we start.
Yes. Converting a garage to a living space requires building permits because you’re changing the use of the structure. This involves meeting residential building code for insulation, egress, electrical, plumbing, and ventilation. We handle the full permitting process for you.
Yes, converting a garage means giving up that covered parking. Some homeowners choose a partial conversion to keep one bay for parking. We can discuss layout options during your consultation based on your priorities and local parking requirements.
Most garage conversions take 3 to 6 months from design through completion, depending on the scope of work and permitting timeline. Conversions are typically faster than new construction because the structure is already standing.
In many cases, yes — especially if the conversion is built as a permitted ADU with a full kitchen, bathroom, and separate entrance. Rental regulations vary by city, so we’ll help you understand what’s allowed on your property during our consultation.
Yes. We manage everything from initial design and structural engineering through permit submission and all inspections. You get a single point of contact for the entire project.
We remove the garage door and frame in the opening with a proper insulated wall. Depending on your design, we can add windows, a new entry door, or a combination — creating an exterior that blends with the rest of your home.
Stop letting your garage collect dust. Cascade Pro, Inc can transform it into a beautiful, functional living space — whether you’re looking for rental income, a guest suite, or room for family. We handle everything from design to final inspection.

Puyallup's rapid growth over the past decade has transformed it from a quiet agricultural town into one of Pierce County's most sought-after communities. From the established neighborhoods around Pioneer Park and downtown to the sprawling developments across South Hill, homeowners here are investing in their properties like never before.
The city's mix of housing stock — ranging from early 1900s bungalows near the Puyallup Fairgrounds to newer construction in Shaw Road and Canyon Falls subdivisions — means every project requires a tailored approach. We understand Puyallup's municipal code and work directly with the city's Development Services to secure permits efficiently, whether you're converting a garage on South Hill or adding a room in the Van Lierop Park area.
Puyallup homeowners also benefit from the Valley's relatively flat terrain and generous lot sizes, which are ideal for detached ADUs and room additions. Our crew has worked extensively in neighborhoods like Sunrise Village, Firgrove, and Woodland Park Estates, giving us a strong understanding of the local building requirements, HOA considerations, and utility connections specific to each area.
