ADU Construction in Walnut Grove

Backyard cottages, attached suites and garage conversions, with zoning confirmed before anything else and every stage after it, from utility trenches to trim, kept with one team.

Every Stage of a House, Shrunk Down

An ADU needs what any house needs: a foundation, framing, a weather-tight shell, water, sewer and power, a kitchen, a bathroom and somewhere to sleep. That is a long chain of stages for a small building, and it runs smoother when one team holds all of it.

Zoning goes first. Your city or county decides whether a second unit is allowed, how large it may be, how far it must sit from the lot lines and who may live in it, and we pin those answers down for your lot before anything else. The finished unit comes with a one-year warranty from us.

Answer These First

  • What Zoning Allows

    Whether a second unit is permitted on your lot, its maximum size and who may live there are set locally. Those answers shape every decision after them.

  • Distance From the House

    Every utility line starts at the main house and has to reach the unit, so each extra foot of distance means more trenching, more cost and more days.

  • Who It's For

    Housing a parent and housing a tenant call for different entrances, layouts and finish levels, so knowing who will live there comes before any layout.

ADU Questions

From approval to keys, how long is an ADU build?

Plan on several months. Converting a garage tends to go quicker since the slab and walls already stand, while a detached cottage starts from new footings.

Could a tenant live in it?

Possibly. Rental rules are set by your city or county, and they vary: some allow it freely, some restrict the unit to family, and some tie it to the owner living on site. Check before counting on rent.

Someone Who Needs a Place Close By?

Maybe it is a parent who should not live alone, or a grown kid saving for a place. Tell us roughly how big the lot is and where a unit might go, and we will explain what has to be confirmed before anything gets built.
