What is an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)?

An ADU is a secondary residential dwelling unit that can be located within or detached from the main residential structure on a single-family residential lot.

Simple renovations such as bathroom upgrades or kitchen re-layout are the usual methods implemented to enhance a house value. Nothing wrong with those approaches.  But the absolute best thing, bar-none, for homeowners to do is adding square footage to their homes, legally. 

​

And as of January 1, 2020, the California state law on Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) gave homeowners the chance to do so without interference by the local authority (state law trumps over city/county law). 

 

A simple summary made by California Association of Realtors (C.A.R.) regarding this new ADU law, can also be found here

 

In essence, homeowners are legally allowed to create additional space for their home, which will lead to increased intrinsic valuation of the homes.

ADU

Design & Build Process

SITE CONSULTATION

Our company's principal is highly involved from the beginning of the project to the end of it. A site consultation is where our clients meet the principal discussing the clients' needs. We provide honest and straightforward feedback along with professional advice backed by two decades of industry experience. We will make a customized ADU solution based on our clients' needs and budget.

CONCEPTUAL SESSION

Combining the needs of our clients and their budget, we come up with a custom tailored conceptual floorplan along with preliminary budget. Client will sign a proposal to engage us on the design-build service.

DESIGN PHASE

We get down on the nitty gritty of the full design aspect of the ADU. We fine tune the floorplans, create sections, elevations, roof plans, structural plans (if necessary), Title 24 (if necessary). We also offer optional service in creating a site plan if the client does not have one ready. Once the design package is ready, then we submit it to the local planning department for plan review.

PERMIT STAGE

CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT

This is the moment we all have been waiting. Our plans are approved and we are ready to move forward with constructing the ADU. Both parties will sign a construction working agreement based on the signed proposal.

BUILDING PHASE

We are putting all of our resources into making your approved plans into reality. This is where the rubber meets the road. Our team and our sub-contractors are working hand-in-hand to construct the ADU until you are ready to turn the key of the front door!
