An ADU is the best square footage most LA lots will ever add: housing for family, or rent that pays a mortgage's worth of bills. We build detached ADUs, attached units, and garage conversions from the first site check to the final inspection — plans, engineering, utilities, and construction under one roof.
Because we self-perform concrete, framing, plumbing, electrical, drywall, and stucco, your unit isn't waiting on a parade of subcontractors. That's how ADUs finish on schedule.
A complete small home in your backyard — foundation, framing, systems, and finishes, up to 1,200 sq ft under state law.
The fastest, most affordable path to a rentable unit: foundation checks, insulation, systems, and a finish that doesn't feel like a garage.
Additions and junior units carved from existing space, with the required separate entrance and kitchen done to code.
Not every backyard building needs a full kitchen — we build casitas, studios, and offices to the same standard.
Trenching, sewer connections, panel upgrades, and meters — the part of ADU budgets everyone forgets. We price it up front.
Architectural plans, structural engineering, Title 24, and city plan check — or we build from the plans you already have.
Typical 2026 Los Angeles-area ranges including construction; plans, permits, and utility fees vary by city and site. Many owners see the unit pay for itself in 7–12 years of rent.
We meet at your property, listen, measure, and give you straight answers — including the ones you didn't ask for. Estimates are free.
A written, line-item scope with a milestone payment schedule that follows California law. Plans, engineering, and permits handled.
Our own crews, a clean site, and a schedule we actually keep. You get one point of contact and updates you don't have to chase.
We punch the list to zero, pass final inspection, and stand behind the work after the trucks leave.
California law generally allows a detached ADU up to 1,200 sq ft with 4-foot side and rear setbacks, and most lots also qualify for a junior ADU. We confirm exactly what your parcel allows before you spend a dollar on plans.
Plan on 2–4 months for design and permits, then 4–8 months of construction depending on size — garage conversions land at the short end. We give you a written schedule with the contract.
No — the county reassesses only the value the ADU adds, not your existing home. Your current assessment stays where it is.
Yes — long-term rentals (30+ days) are allowed essentially everywhere ADUs are. Short-term rental rules vary by city, so tell us your plan and we'll flag what applies.
Free on-site estimates. Straight answers on price, permits, and timeline — no runaround.
We reply within one business day — usually faster.
