What a garage remodeling project looks like here

Duboce Triangle (the wedge between Castro, Lower Haight, and Mission) is dense 1880-1905 Victorian survivor stock with 25-ft typical lot widths and shared light wells.

Because the neighborhood is rent-control-saturated, multi-unit alteration projects routinely face SF §317 demolition/merger control review.

Party-wall structural retrofits (per SFBC §3307) are routine on shared-wall flat-building projects.

Storage systems, workshop build-outs, EV-charging-ready — soft-story-aware on pre-1978 stock with cantilever frame coordination. In Duboce Triangle specifically, italianate + stick victorian (1880-1905) stock means garage remodeling scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's San Francisco scoping flow factors pre-1906 victorian stock and sf §311 neighbor notification into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
