Frequently Asked Questions
How many bedrooms do I need for an AFH?
AFHs can serve up to 6 unrelated residents. Each needs a bedroom meeting DSHS size, window, and closet requirements.
Do AFHs need sprinklers?
It depends on jurisdiction and the scope of the remodel. We confirm during consultation.
Can my existing home become an AFH?
Many single-family homes can. Layout, bedroom sizes, bathrooms, and egress are the biggest factors.
Do you help with licensing paperwork?
We focus on construction — but we coordinate closely with licensing consultants.
Do you work outside Tacoma?
Yes — we take AFH projects across much of Western Washington given the specialty nature.
