Tips to think about when designing and building your ADU
- Think Twice – Build Once | Think good about your design. We help you with space planning and maximum space allowed.
- Choose the right materials and appliances. Save money by not running a gas line, use an electric stove and water heater.
- Upgrade your concrete. Many ADU’s will only require 2500psi, bump it to 3000psi and add steal rebar.
- Think about where the sun is, add a little extra insulation. Include a patio cover for shade and outdoor living.
- Use your setbacks wisely. Push your ADU back as far as you can to gain yard space.
