Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)

Grow Your Living Area and Boost Your Property Value

Enhance Your Property and Lifestyle with a Versatile ADU

Adding an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) to your property offers a cozy and private space for family visits. Ideal for accommodating parents or in-laws, an ADU can be designed as a standalone unit or garage conversion, providing a comfortable retreat that enhances family connections and support. This versatile space ensures that your loved ones have a welcoming place to stay during important moments.

In addition to creating a family-friendly space, an ADU can serve as a valuable source of passive income. With high rental demand in California, an ADU offers the potential for extra revenue that can be used to save for future goals, pay off debts, or invest in education. By investing in ADU construction, you can both increase your property’s value and enjoy financial benefits, making it a smart decision for your home and your future.

  • Kickstart your project journey by filling out our Client Project Questionnaire, where you can share your vision in detail. Then, schedule a Discovery Call at a time that suits you. We'll listen closely and discuss your ideas for your ADU.

  • Our comprehensive feasibility study is the first step in evaluating the potential for an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) on your property. Our team of architects and engineers will conduct a thorough assessment to determine the viability of your ADU project. This includes evaluating zoning regulations, property layout, structural requirements, and utility connections. We’ll provide detailed insights into design possibilities, potential challenges, and cost estimates, ensuring you have a clear understanding of what’s required before moving forward. This essential step helps ensure that your ADU project is both feasible and aligned with your goals.

  • This phase is where your ADU vision is meticulously refined. During this step, our team will create detailed floor plans and elevations that offer a comprehensive overview of the proposed ADU. We will develop design concepts that address both aesthetic preferences and functional requirements.

    This phase also includes the preparation of detailed architectural and engineering plans necessary for obtaining building permits. These documents cover all critical aspects, including structural, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems.

Once permits are in place, our experienced construction team will start the building process, adhering to the approved plans and schedules. Throughout this phase, we prioritize quality craftsmanship and timely progress, keeping you informed and involved at every step. Our goal is to transform your design into a beautifully constructed ADU that meets your expectations and enhances your property.
