ADU and garage conversions in Los Angeles

An ADU adds space for family, guests or rental income. We review your lot, utilities and how the unit will be used, guide it through permits and build it to the same standard as the main home.

What to plan

Make room for another way to live

How the unit will be used shapes its layout, utilities and finishes. Start with the property and the space you have in mind, and we will map out the path from permit to move-in.

Serving Los Angeles County, with select projects in nearby counties. See service areas.

Decisions

A new living space has to work as a whole

The useful questions go beyond square footage: how the space will be entered, served by utilities, arranged, and finished for its intended use.

Start with the intended use

A guest space, family accommodation, and flexible work area can lead to different layout and systems needs. Decide how the space should function before settling the plan.

Review property constraints

Existing construction, access, setbacks, utilities, and applicable approvals shape the options. A garage conversion and a new detached ADU should not be assumed to follow the same path.

Treat comfort as part of construction

Light, ventilation, insulation, privacy, and circulation matter as much as the room count. They should be discussed alongside finishes and services.
