Local Knowledge

Remodeling Fircrest homes

Fircrest is a small, well-kept residential enclave surrounded by Tacoma, known for 1920s-1950s Tudors, brick ramblers, and tree-lined streets. The projects we see most are kitchen and bath remodels and interior updates that modernize classic homes without losing their period feel.

Permits: the City of Fircrest issues residential remodel permits through its Building department. We handle the entire permit process, applications, plan documents, and inspection scheduling, on every project.

DA Interior Solutions handled our kitchen remodel start to finish, they even created a custom pantry for me. They brought my Pinterest board vision to life. Adam and Devon were great to work with. If you're remodeling in the South Sound, these are the guys to call.

DA Interiors exceeded our expectations PERIOD. Don't let their youthful appearance fool you, they are hardworking, diligent, honest, skilled and respectful. Our three bathrooms were demolished and transformed into a beautiful work of art.

DA Interior Solutions redesigned two bathrooms for us and completed a kitchen remodel. We couldn't be happier with the results. They were a pleasure to work with, often going above and beyond expectations. On budget and on time, we would love to work with them again on any future projects.

Budget & Planning

What to expect on cost

Conversions are one of the best value-per-square-foot projects in a home because the shell already exists. Cost is driven by moisture control, whether you are adding a bathroom, and egress requirements. We assess all three on a walkthrough and price it clearly.

Q & A

Questions, answered straight

Can I add a bedroom in my basement legally?

Yes, with proper egress. A legal basement bedroom needs a compliant egress window or door for safe exit, plus the right ceiling height and ventilation. We handle the egress work and the permit so the room counts as legal living space, not just finished square footage.

Will my basement stay dry after it is finished?

That is the first thing we solve. Before any framing, we address moisture: grading, drainage, vapor barriers, and waterproofing as needed. Finishing over a wet basement is the most common mistake we get called to fix, so we do it right from the start.

Can a garage conversion be an ADU I rent out?

In many cases, yes. A garage conversion can become a legal ADU with the right permits, egress, and utility connections, which we manage. We confirm what your lot and jurisdiction allow before you commit.

Which Fircrest neighborhoods do you serve?

All of Fircrest, including Fircrest, Regents Park, near the Fircrest Golf Club, plus the surrounding Pierce County area. We're about 20 minutes from our shop.

Who handles remodel permits in Fircrest?
