Why people build one
Why build an ADU?
Family close by
A parent who should not live alone, a grown child saving up. Their own front door, a few steps away.
Space that pays
A unit to rent out, on land you already own.
What you get
A complete small home: kitchen, bathroom, living and sleeping space, with its own entrance, built to your city's rules.
Who you deal with
Us, from the first look at the lot to the final walk-through. One call, one file.
Three ways to build it
Which kind of ADU fits your lot?
Detached backyard home
Stands on its own, with the most privacy for both households.
Attached unit
Shares a wall with the main house, with its own entrance.
Garage conversion
Reuses the walls and roof you already have, turned into living space.
Kitchen and bathroom
Every ADU is a full home: cooking, washing, living and sleeping.
Site work and utilities
Foundation, power, water and sewer connections, as the unit needs.
How it goes
How an ADU build goes, from lot to keys
Site visit
We look at the lot, the access and the utilities, and hear how the unit will be used.
Plans and rules
The type and size of unit your city allows on your lot, and the permits it needs.
Quote
Built from the plans, the site work and your finishes, not from a price list.
Build
Foundation to finish.
The first consultation and quote are free.
Finishes
Built as simple or as high-end as you like
The finishes are yours to choose; we build with them.
Cost and planning
What sets the price and timing of an ADU?
Type and size
A garage conversion starts from walls you have; a detached unit starts from bare ground.
Site and utilities
How far power, water and sewer have to run, and what the ground needs before building.
Permits and finishes
Your city's approval sets when building can start; the finishes you choose move the number most.
The first consultation and quote are free. Our work comes with a written warranty, its terms set in your contract, and financing is available through our lending partner.

Questions
What people ask about ADUs
What is an ADU?
An accessory dwelling unit: a second, smaller home on the same lot as the main house, with its own kitchen, bathroom and entrance. It can stand on its own in the backyard, attach to the house, or be built inside a garage.
Can you build an ADU on my property?
That depends on your lot and your city's rules: setbacks, size limits, parking and utilities. We look at the property on the first visit and tell you plainly what can go where.
Detached, attached or a garage conversion: which one is right?
A garage conversion reuses walls and a roof you already have. An attached unit shares a wall with the house. A detached unit stands on its own and gives the most privacy. Your lot, your budget and how the space will be used decide it.
Who handles the permits and the plans?
Your city's rules decide what can be built and which permits it needs. We go through them with you on the first visit, before anything is quoted.
How is an ADU priced?
After a visit, never from a price list. The quote follows the type of unit, its size, the site work and utilities it needs, and the finishes you choose.
Who does the building?
We do, and you deal with us from the first visit to the end. We are insured.
Can I see ADUs you have built?
ADUs appear in the portfolio as soon as an owner clears one for the site. Until then, the Fremont job shows how we build, stage by stage.
