Construction and Completion
Once plans are finalized, our ADU contractors manage the full build with efficient timelines, consistent communication, and a high-quality finish you can rely on.
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of ADUs can I build on my property?
Most homeowners can choose from options like detached ADUs, attached ADUs, or garage conversions. The best fit depends on your lot size, zoning rules, and how you plan to use the space. We can help you determine what works for your property.
How long does it take to design and build an ADU?
Timeline depends on your project scope, permitting requirements, and design complexity. Most ADUs require several weeks of planning followed by a construction period that varies based on size and features.
Will an ADU add value to my home?
Yes. ADUs typically increase property value by offering more livable square footage and flexible use. Buyers appreciate the added privacy, versatility, and income potential.
Can I rent out my ADU for extra income?
In many areas, yes. An ADU can serve as a long-term rental or short-term rental depending on local regulations. We can guide you on permitted uses as part of the planning process.
