Our Ground-Up ADU Build Process
Building a new home in your backyard requires precision. We turn a complex construction project into a clear, managed journey from foundation to finish.
Step 1
Feasibility & Game Plan
We review your lot, zoning, setbacks, and utilities, then give you a realistic budget range before you commit to full plans.
Step 2
Design & Permits
We design a rental‑ready layout and handle all LA permit paperwork and plan‑check comments so your project keeps moving.
Step 3
Construction & Inspections
Licensed crews build to code while we coordinate inspections and utility work with LADWP and others to avoid unnecessary delays.
Step 4
Handover & Support
We deliver a move‑in‑ready ADU, close out permits, and back it with a written warranty and clear support process.
The Custom Backyard Villa
A fully independent, ground-up home. Ideal for premium long-term rentals or a luxury guest house. This detached unit provides maximum privacy and can add $250,000+ to your property’s equity in Los Angeles.
Detached ADU – Family Now, Income Later
On a larger lot, a 400–800 sq ft detached ADU can give parents or adult kids a private place to live while keeping everyone close. Later, the same unit can become a premium long‑term rental, often commanding higher per‑square‑foot rents than nearby apartments thanks to privacy and yard access.

Add a new, code‑compliant unit that shares at least one wall with your home. It’s a smart way to expand living space and rental potential while keeping costs lower than a detached build and without giving up your entire backyard.

FAQ
Hard Questions, Honest Answers
We follow CSLB rules on deposits, use milestone‑based payments, and never ask you to pay for work we haven’t done. Our license, insurance, and references are easy to check, and most of our projects come from referrals, not aggressive ads.
California law allows ADUs on most residential lots and even removes minimum lot‑size requirements; many properties can build at least an 800 sq ft unit if setbacks and other basics are met. Part of our feasibility step is to look at your specific site and show you what’s realistically possible before you spend money on full plans.
We start with a realistic range that includes design, permits, construction, and typical utility work. If something pushes us outside that range — like unexpected site conditions or upgraded finishes — we’ll show you the impact in a written change order before doing the work, so you stay in control.
Every property is different, but most projects run in the 8–14 month range from first call to move‑in, depending on design complexity, city response times, and utility work. We share your specific timeline range before you sign and update it if LA or the utilities slow things down.
