What affects the price
Building an ADU involves several moving parts that shape your total investment. The final figure depends heavily on whether you choose a prefab unit or a custom build from the ground up. Site conditions are another major factor; if your property requires extensive grading, utility trenching, or foundation work, costs will climb. You also have to consider your choice of finishes, like high-end appliances or custom cabinetry. Navigating local permit fees and impact assessments also adds to the total.
About this service
A modular unit is built in a factory and then transported to your property to be finished on a foundation. You should consider this if you want a faster construction timeline with less disruption to your daily life. It is an efficient way to add high-quality space to your lot.
