ADUs & Garage Conversions

(Accessory Dwelling Unit)

Add valuable living space and generate income.

With the housing crunch becoming more prevalent by the day, more homeowners are opting to build out their homes to make room for extended family or even renters. We design and build custom home additions, ADUs and garage conversions for those homeowners who want to maximize the utility and value of their property.

Note: As of Jan. 1, 2017, LA Country home-owners are able to convert existing garage space into a legal rental income unit.

An ADU can be a great way to expand the usability of a property by adding space for a home office, a living space for guests, or even a standalone rental home to earn additional income. NewForm Builders can create the following types of ADUs:

Newform Builders
Detached ADU

A freestanding ADU that is not attached to the home; can be up to 1,200 sq. ft.

Newform Builders
Attached ADU

An ADU that’s attached to an existing home; can be up to 50% of the size of the main unit.

Newform Builders
Garage
Conversion ADU

An existing garage modified to create a small living space, using the same setbacks of the property.

For Multi-Family and Mixed-Use Zoned Properties, a maximum of two new construction ADUs (either attached or detached) are permitted. You may add up to the equivalent of 25% of the existing dwelling units by converting non-livable space within an existing multi-family building with a 4-foot front and rear setback and 16-foot maximum height.

An ADU not only provides separate, private living quarters but can also increase the assessed resale value of the entire property. To ensure homeowners get the maximum value from their ADU build, our team always follows all applicable building codes and regulations, and the job is not finished until the final inspection is satisfactorily completed.

Our team of industry professionals will guide you through your room addition from end to end, ensuring excellence and superior service throughout the entire process. We specialize in turning ideas into solutions, while balancing expectations and budget.

In addition to obtaining the necessary permits, managing all city inspections, and ensuring that all work is completed up to code, we’ll establish a design plan that aligns with your budget and vision. We work diligently and efficiently, prioritizing safety above all, to make sure any add-ons meet both city requirements and your expectations.
