Rental Income
ADUs can generate significant rental income, helping you cover mortgage costs, supplement your income, or create a new revenue stream. This can be especially helpful for retirees on fixed incomes.
Increase Property Value
Adding an ADU is generally considered an investment that increases the overall value of your property. The additional living space makes your home more attractive to potential buyers.
Additional Space
It provides a perfect solution for families who want to live close together while maintaining some privacy and independence.
Affordable Housing
ADUs can provide much-needed affordable housing options in areas with high housing costs.

Peace of Mind with ADU Orange County Quality Assurance!
Ever worried about getting something done right? You're not alone! Here at ADU Orange County, we understand the importance of quality and want to assure you that your ADU project is in good hands.
Think of it like this: When you buy something new, you probably check reviews or ask friends for recommendations, right? We do the same! That's why we provide you with references from satisfied customers right in your estimate booklet.
But that's not all! We take a deep dive into your project with a thorough 25-point quality control inspection. We visually check everything and make sure it functions perfectly. Want to see the nitty-gritty details? Our 25-point inspection form is available under the "About Us" menu on our website.
Now, let's talk permits. Projects requiring permits will be meticulously reviewed and approved by the local building department during the plan check process. Plus, local building inspectors will be on-site throughout the construction to ensure everything meets code.
Speaking of code, ADU Orange County builds to a higher standard! We follow "code plus" practices, meaning your ADU will be built to exceed building code requirements.
And for that extra layer of confidence, we back our work with a solid 5-year builder's warranty on workmanship.

Get A Fair Shake with ADU Orange County Low Price Guarantee!
Hey there, thinking about adding an ADU to your Orange County property?
We get it, it's a big decision, and you want to make sure you're getting a good deal. Here at ADU Orange County, we're so confident in our competitive pricing that we offer a Low Price Guarantee on all our ADU projects.
That's right! We know shopping around for estimates can be a hassle. Other contractors might give you a ballpark number, but it's hard to know if it's accurate until you have detailed plans drawn up, which can take time and money. That's why we take the guesswork out of the equation.
Here's how our Low Price Guarantee works:
- Get Estimates: We encourage you to get quotes from other licensed contractors for your ADU project.
- Compare Prices: Once you have those estimates in hand, bring them to us.
- We'll Match or Beat It: If a competitor's written estimate for the same project (with the same specifications) comes in lower than ours, we'll match or beat their price!
- Peace of Mind Before You Build: This guarantee is valid until construction begins, so you can feel confident you're getting the best value before you break ground.
There's a catch, of course (but it's a fair one): We need to see the competitor's estimate to make sure they're proposing the same project with the same features and materials. This ensures we're comparing apples to apples.
Ready to ditch the estimate hunt and get started on your dream ADU? Contact ADU Orange County today! Give us a call or fill out our quick and easy contact form. We'll be happy to answer your questions and get you a free, no-obligation quote. Let's build something amazing together!
Skip the Expensive Blueprints! Get Your Free ADU Estimate Today with ADU Orange County
Hey there, thinking about adding a room or building an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) to your Orange County home? We hear you! ADUs are a fantastic way to add value and space to your property. But before you dive in, you might be wondering: Do I need fancy blueprints to get an accurate estimate?
We get this question a lot. The truth is, most contractors require a complete set of blueprints to give you a quote. That can be expensive, costing anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000! And here's the kicker: those plans might not even fit your budget.
Why? Because many architects and designers aren't construction experts. They might create beautiful plans, but those plans might also be way more expensive to build than you expect. We've seen it happen – clients spend a fortune on blueprints, only to find out their dream project is $30,000 to $100,000 over budget!
That's where ADU Orange County comes in. We believe you shouldn't have to pay a small fortune just to get an idea of what your ADU or remodel will cost. That's why we offer free on-site consultations and estimates. Our experienced team will come to your home, discuss your vision, and design a plan that fits your budget – all without any blueprint charges.
In most cases, we can even provide you with an estimate on the spot! So, skip the expensive blueprints and get a realistic idea of what your project will cost.

Got Your Own ADU Materials in Mind? ADU Orange County Can Work With You!
At ADU Orange County, we understand you might have specific materials in mind for your dream Accessory Dwelling Unit. That's why we're flexible! You can absolutely purchase your own materials for certain things, like light fixtures, plumbing supplies, flooring, and paint.
Here's the thing to keep in mind: there might be an additional cost to install customer-purchased materials. This is because if the item requires extra work to put in, it takes more time from our crew. Think of it like this: installing a fancy new toilet might take just as long as a basic one, so the labor cost stays around $150 for either.
However, if you go the self-sourced material route, you'll be responsible for the product's warranty. That means if it arrives damaged or doesn't work right, you'll have to handle the return or replacement.
For your convenience, ADU Orange County includes all materials in our bids. This way, you get a clear picture of the total project cost upfront, with no hidden surprises.

Unsure About ADU Costs in Orange County? ADU Orange County Can Help!
Hey there! Wondering if that quote you got for your ADU is the real deal? You're not alone. ADU costs can feel confusing, but don't worry, ADU Orange County is here to shed some light on things.
At ADU Orange County, we get it. You want an accurate price upfront, so you can budget properly. That's why we strive to include everything in our initial estimates.

The only time the cost might change is if you decide to add something extra after the project starts, just like adding extra cheese to your pizza!
Of course, there's always a chance of unforeseen issues like hidden plumbing problems (like finding extra anchovies on your pizza nobody ordered!). But even then, we'll be upfront with you about the cost, and you'll only pay our contractor's cost, no markups. That's our promise!

- Accurate Estimates: We take the time to understand your project and provide a detailed estimate with clear pricing.

- Signing Your Contract: A 10% deposit or $1,000 (whichever is less) secures your spot and gets us started.

Unsure About ADU Permitting in Orange County? We Can Help!
Thinking about adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to your property in Orange County? That's fantastic! An ADU can be a great way to add extra living space, a rental unit for income, or even a home office. But before you get too excited about picking out furniture, there's one important step: getting the permits.
We know permitting can seem confusing, but don't worry, ADU Orange County is here to help! Here's a quick rundown of the typical timeline for ADU permit approval in Orange County, but remember, this is just an estimate. The exact time can vary depending on the size and complexity of your project.
The ADU Orange County Permitting Process:
- Project Complexity Matters: Just like you wouldn't expect a one-minute microwave dinner to take as long as a five-course meal, the complexity of your ADU project will impact how long it takes to get permits. Simple ADUs, like converting a garage, might move through the process quicker than a two-story addition.
- Our Speedy Start: At ADU Orange County, we waste no time! Within a week of signing a contract, we'll have a designer at your place to measure and get your project rolling.
- Plan Preparation and Submittal: Once we have the measurements, we'll get your ADU plans drafted. Depending on the size of your project, this typically takes 2 to 3 weeks. Then, we'll submit them to city planning for review.
- City Review and Revisions: The city will typically take 2 weeks to review your plans and provide any corrections needed. We'll take those corrections, revise the plans, and resubmit them within 7 to 10 days.
- Final Approval and Pulling Permits: The building department usually takes a week or two to review the revised plans and grant final approval. Once that's done, we can pull the permits and get started on building your dream ADU!
Important Note: These are just general guidelines. The time it takes to prepare the initial plans isn't included here.
