With the relaxed California ADU rules, this is the best time to start your ADU project. They are quick to design, easy to built and can provide that extra space or long term income.
Types of ADU's
Interior ADU
- Interior ADU's are located within the Primary Home. A garage or a basement can be used for this purpose.
Attached ADU
– These are built to the side or rear of the home, or on top of an attached garage.
Detached ADU
- An independent unit separate from the primary dwelling. Watch a Detached ADU Project

ADUs are an affordable type of home to construct in California because they do not require paying for land, major new infrastructure, structured parking, or elevators.
ADUs can provide a source of income for homeowners.
ADUs are built with cost-effective wood frame construction, which is significantly less costly than homes in new multifamily infill buildings.
ADUs allow extended families to be near one another while maintaining privacy.
ADUs can provide as much living space as many newly-built apartments and condominiums, and they’re suited well for couples, small families, friends, young people, and seniors.
ADUs give homeowners the flexibility to share independent living areas with family members and others, allowing seniors to age in place as they require more care.
