Granny flats, or in-law units, are informal terms for ADUs that are mostly associated with backyard cottages or additions to single-family homes.
Conversion ADUs are created from existing space on your property, such as a garage, basement, or other permitted structure. Not all ADU companies have the knowledge or experience required to pull off a successful conversion ADU, but Devlin Builder Co. does.
Navigating the feasibility of your dream ADU can be difficult. The ever changing California law combined with local jurisdictions can make getting started overwhelming. We can handle all the initial heavy lifting so you know if the project is possible.
Once you’ve confirmed that your project is feasible, it is time to start designing your unit. This is where the fun with ADU planning really begins. With a better understanding of the particulars of your space and the code requirements for a legally recognized ADU, you can begin working with our architect to design the overall concept of your ADU.
Your hand will be held from start to finish with consistent communication along the way.
We know the way local jurisdictions look at ADU plans and we will ensure a seamless process along the way.
With experience comes quality. We produce a high end finish at a DIY cost.
Our collective experience and constant team approach produces the best possible outcome.
