01
Consultation
We review your property, goals, budget range, and the best ADU strategy for your lot and lifestyle.
Process
A clear Design-Build process for ADU projects.
The process is designed to keep planning, approvals, and construction aligned from the start.
02
Design
We develop the layout, exterior character, and plan set needed to move confidently into permitting.
03
Permitting
We coordinate the plan submittal and approval process with the city or jurisdiction handling your project.

Helpful ADU resources
A clearer ADU process
A coordinated design-build process helps homeowners make better decisions early, reduce redesign, and move from feasibility to construction with fewer surprises.
Process details
What a coordinated ADU process helps prevent
ADU projects can slow down when design, permitting, budgeting, and construction planning happen separately. A design-build approach keeps these decisions connected so the layout is practical, the permit package is more focused, and construction expectations are clearer before work begins.
Early feasibility
Site access, utilities, setbacks, privacy, and existing structures are reviewed before the project direction becomes too fixed.
Permit coordination
Plans are prepared with local review in mind so corrections and design decisions can be handled more efficiently.
Build planning
Construction sequencing, materials, trade coordination, and site logistics are considered before the project reaches the field.
Homeowners also benefit from understanding what decisions belong in each phase. Feasibility answers what is likely possible, design shapes the living experience, permitting confirms compliance, and construction turns the approved plans into a finished ADU.
Clear expectations also help homeowners compare options more confidently, avoid premature decisions, and understand how each step supports the next step.
