At the same time I was building my van my brother also wanted to convert the garage into a living space for his family. For the budget he had to work with he came up with this. Hope you enjoy.

It’s nice that the brothers appear very close. Very rare

@halliadams5987 6 лет назад

Wow Jarrod! That's a really nice tiny home. The stairs are kinda scary but, as your brother mentioned, they're not finished yet. Y'all are a very talented family! Keep the great vids coming and remember...ya gotta listen!!!😄😄😄

If I moved into that beautiful remodel...you'd have to drag me out..lol

@courtneywhitlow6974 4 года назад

27 Seconds into this video and I am already amazed. Glad you showed the after results first, that hooked me in :-)

@josephmaceri4470 5 лет назад

Awesome! I have a garage almost the exact same size, I know your bro and dad did the labor but how much did they spend in materials? trying to figure out some numbers! thanks Jarrod!

@petisaanglin8809 5 лет назад

Super cool. Planning to do same here in South Africa. Cottage conversion to retire to. To see it real time makes a huge diff.

@renegade7493 6 лет назад

Pretty cool.

Neat. Looks good. Wish my garage was that tall

@Steelers88Maxima 5 лет назад

Awesome video! All the decor was impressive and the space was used pretty well. I love seeing the ideas you guys come up with.

@rotad3rP 6 лет назад

a simple solution for the camera pans would be a sting attached to the bottom of the camera. you can just stand on it when you are filming and lightly pull the camera up to hold it steady. you are mobile and the pans will look much better

@JarrodTocci 6 лет назад

rotad3rP thank you

@icunurse36 6 лет назад

Y’all did a great job!

@angelgeeks 6 лет назад

Sweet suite! I'm sure I'm not the only one who was wondering where all the stuff went. My guess is a big yard/garage sale with the proceeds going towards the project. What say you?

@kimberlyevangelista2258 4 года назад

Looks amazing you made a beautiful space

@melanierodriguez3913 6 лет назад

Thank you for this video. I loved it & gave me such great ideas!! xox

@ThoseBackPages 6 лет назад

That place is AWESOME!!! Now your Dad can turn it into his personal Den, right? :D

@halal2prayer210 6 лет назад

Love the converted garage....I also see where you have space to add a closet or small bedroom downstairs. You can also add a wall on the baby space for privacy. Beautiful conversion and a good source of extra income. Kudos to you all.

@jbgrooves 6 лет назад

Nicely done.

@jacquitavis8759 6 лет назад

Very cute place!

@jaxinco 6 лет назад

I think the bedroom/bathroom should be on the far side from the house and the kitchen living area on the house side of the garage for more privacy. Then a sliding glass patio door for the living to bring in lots of light and no door or small window for the bedroom.

@StephAnie-yk4qb 5 лет назад

jaxinco it’s not to be an obvious living facility (likely not allowed).

@kristiina6897 6 лет назад

That's an awesome spot! Great friggin job!! Have you guys thought of being a traveling gypsy reno family, with comedic work on the side...lol 😉

@JarrodTocci 6 лет назад

lol I have thought about starting a business with the family BUT it's a ton of start up work so we will see

@nancyperez6678 6 месяцев назад

Regarding the rafters you removed. Does removing rafter affect the support? Did you have to add some other type of support?

@KruisinKevin 5 лет назад

@OsakaOutlaw 6 лет назад

Really cool! Everytime I see one of your video's you inspire me, keep up the good work I look forward to seeing more video's like this. =)

@staypositivemcmc 5 лет назад

Thank you for the inspiration video This is the first video that I ever seen that expire me to move forward in my project I have the same dimension as on the video 400 square feet plus 12 give or take the way you do with the bathrooms or excellent how you design it is perfect now I know what to do now I know what to expect once again this is the only video on RU-vid that I seen that's comparable and matchable with the ideals and the motivation in the way the family structure is I think it's awesome first time seeing the video but never less keep up the good work I will subscribe

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

Awesome! I'm so glad this helped! I'll try to find more of these builds to tour and get into more details with them

@a.miller3176 5 лет назад

Did you do a video of how you installed the garage doors?

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

Unfortunately I did not do a video on that. I wasn't around when they built that part. If you have questions about them I could probably answer them

@ginobenvenuto1913 5 лет назад

@nena200able Год назад

Very nice. How much did it cost?

@logicsodomyandwrath 4 года назад

Hey! Nice work. I am considering the feasibility of a similar project. I have a late 1940's single-car detached garage, with a workshop area. The supports/studs, it seems, are similar to what were present in this project. Being that it was owner-built so the spacing is somewhat random. I'm curious how much work went into that and how much you were able to just leave. Also - were any of the plumbing connections present? Mine has one floor spigot plumbed under concrete, and no sewer outlet. Also same concrete floor, below or at grade and the original wiring which blows a house circuit if more than one heater is on anywhere else. ha. Curious how you covered the floor too. This is much longer than I had intended to write - but whatever. A little color would be nice - you might've left SOME natural wood for warmth... that's a lot of primer to cover all of that raw lumber to get it white - I'll bet your father was thrilled. Paint drywall, not solid wood. wink - have a good day, sorry so many questions. Mike Seattle=LosAngeles-Seattle again. Scorpio

I stumbled into this video. California changed the permitting process for ADU’s starting in 2020. I am interested in converting a large room in the house as a separate rental. Will add a kitchen and bathroom. I don’t want to spend more than 15K. This conversion appears to be the same size as my large room with vaulted ceiling. I’m unlikely to make a loft.

@NorrisDantaFord 6 лет назад

Yo bro! This is AWESOME!!

@JarrodTocci 6 лет назад

Norris Danta Ford thanks bro!

@leahcanseco 4 года назад

How long and how much did this conversion cost? Was it all DIY or contractors involved? My garage is similar to this with a loft already and planning to convert it to a tiny house.

@JarrodTocci 4 года назад

Brother and father did it all so saved on contracts as father is a contractor. Not including permits I believe the cost was $15-20k

@VICTORdoomm 5 лет назад

I am closing on my first house in a week, it has 1170 sqft with 3 bed rooms 2 bath (one is the master bath but kind of small) and it has a detached garage 375 sqft, but I think that is the outside dimensions and I want to do exactly what you have done. I've been thinking about it for a few years but never made any real thought in how it would all fit together. I am so happy that I looked it up and found this video. I know there is electric going to the garage but no water. I want to put an electrical box in and have a fridge and washer dryer hot water tank. I am hopping that I can live there and rent the room of the house. How would I go about getting the pluming and electricity, how much could I expect to spend

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

Some good questions. Depending on city and state you can only do certain things with a detached garage (unless you're not pulling permits). You can tape water and electricity from the main house. Or you can make it a "off grid cabin" but you'd probably have to use solar for that. Cost can be anywhere from $15-30k if you're doing it yourself but obviously much more if you're hiring a contractor or others

@beachinhonolulu5136 5 лет назад

Where’s the barn door link

@darkmanx2g 6 лет назад

Wow theres a crib up there?

@saundralopez2030 5 лет назад

Did you have to get a permit or something to change it from a garage to apartment? I live in Cicero, just out of Chicago. My garage looks the same. I have a disabled son and want to give more independence.

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

Yes you will have to check with your city and pull permits for doing any type of construction on a home. Always best to keep it legal. If you hire a contractor they typically will get all the paperwork done. Just make sure you do the research on each contractor and read reviews

@alexsantillan8057 4 года назад

Great video, what do you use as aircondition?

@tae_tay5578 5 лет назад

did you tap into the sewer line or are you septic? I installed a incinerator toliet that burns everything to a sterile ash.

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

Tapped the sewer

@DeBeauTea 6 лет назад

Wow ! I love this ! I am trying to get my garage converted but I’m having trouble finding someone to do it . The problem is I don’t have plumbing . Did you brother have to install plumbing ?

@JarrodTocci 6 лет назад

He did put plumbing in. But he also considered just using a composting style toilet. Still would need to drain the shower somehow though. The plumbing was probably the hardest part

@mattscott8741 5 лет назад

Any info on how the carriage doors were designed?

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

Pretty much 3/4" plywood and 2" insulation then I believe pine boards painted white all to make it look like a barn door. I think all hardware was bought off Amazon. I know the doors were heavy when done

@anthonytorres6031 5 лет назад

Very nice 👍 what are the dimensions of the garage originally ?

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

Thank you! 20' x 20' and as you saw the loft added a little more floor space

@louern123 4 года назад

What's the budget?

@Glam6 4 года назад

Where are you guys located?

@majidalikhan5978 5 лет назад

Very well designed but only 1 concern selling fan & stairs not safe. Just saying 😐

@michaelgordon2860 5 лет назад

Whats was a rough total cost of the renovation?

@JarrodTocci 5 лет назад

I'll have to confirm with my brother but I think it was between $10-15k

@archanaroy6657 6 лет назад

what was cost of building

@JarrodTocci 6 лет назад

When I finished in June of 2017 I estimated about $7500. Recently I made some upgrades and I'm a little over $8000 now. I built a woodshop in the back of my van so I can travel and do woodworking.
