Build backyard homes with the premier ADU Contractor in Burbank.
Burbank's entertainment industry workforce and large single-family lots create ideal conditions for ADU investment. We design, permit, and build ADUs throughout Burbank.
About Our Team
Expert ADU Contractor in Burbank
We focus exclusively on accessory dwelling units. Since 2009, our team has completed over 200 custom builds and garage conversions as a leading ADU contractor in Burbank.
Building a detached ADU is a ground-up construction project requiring grading, foundation work, framing, and independent utility connections. Many general builders handle these projects as secondary work between custom homes. We specialize in them. We self-perform our core trades and coordinate the design, permitting, and construction in-house to deliver a premium guest house or rental property.
