Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in Los Angeles have quickly become more than just a housing trend — they’re changing how people live, invest, and connect with family. At Los Angeles ADU Builders, our experts specialize in turning unutilized spaces and backyards into fully functional, beautifully designed ADUs that blend perfectly with your property.
No matter your ADU project’s purpose — from an intimate guest house, an income-producing rental unit, or a multi-generational living solution — we make the process straightforward, transparent, and stress-free.

ADUs provide sustainable housing options with smaller footprints and energy-efficient systems.

We provide clear, upfront estimates with no hidden surprises so you can make informed decisions about your budget.
Detached ADUs (granny flats or backyard homes) are standalone structures built on your property. They provide independence and privacy for family or tenants and have become increasingly popular with Los Angeles homeowners.
Tiny houses are gaining popularity in the United States due to television programming and social media. A general paradigm shift toward ‘less is more’ has positioned them as an appealing solution to a growing shortage of accessible housing. Many neighborhoods in the cities like Portland, Happy Valley, West Linn, Lake Oswego, Tualatin, Oregon City, Beaverton, Hillsboro, and Wilsonville are benefiting from tiny homes as alternative housing.
Junior ADUs (JADUs) are compact units (up to 500 sq. ft.) created by converting part of an existing home, such as a bedroom or garage space.
Most projects take 6–12 months from design through completion, depending on permits and unit size.
Typically, taxes are assessed only on the new structure’s value, not your entire home — making ADUs an excellent investment.
Los Angeles has specific rules for short-term rentals. While many ADUs are used for long-term tenants, we’ll guide you on what’s allowed.
Your Los Angeles property holds untapped potential — and we can help unlock it. Whether your goal is generating rental income, creating more space for family, or simply expanding your lifestyle, an ADU is the perfect solution.
