What does the ADU plans package include?

The drawings needed to apply for a permit for a single-story ADU of 500 sq ft or less that qualifies: site plan, floor plan, elevations, structural sheets and energy compliance. Construction is quoted separately in writing.

Can an ADU have a full kitchen?

Yes. California rules allow a full kitchen in an ADU. We plan it with standard-size appliances where the footprint allows, and we size the electrical service for them.

Can you convert my garage into an ADU?

Often. The slab, walls and roof framing get inspected first, then we plan where the kitchen and bath plumbing will run and confirm the parking and setback rules for your lot.

ADUs Built Around a Kitchen That Works

An ADU is a full home in a small footprint, and its kitchen takes the most planning per square foot. We draw that first, then fit the rest of the unit around it.

A small kitchen that still works

An ADU kitchen can share a wall with the living area. We draw a layout with a full-size sink, a cooktop with venting, a fridge and real counter space, then place the bath beside it so the plumbing runs stay short.

Plans, permits and utilities

An ADU needs a full permit set: site plan, floor plan, structure, energy compliance and utilities. We prepare the plans, submit them, answer plan check comments and coordinate the water, sewer, gas and electrical connections to the main house or the street.

Detached, attached or a garage conversion

A detached unit gives the most privacy. An attached unit shares a wall and sometimes utilities. A garage conversion reuses a slab and walls, though both are checked before we count on them. We compare the three for your lot before drawing.
