ADU Construction in Monterey County
Custom ADU solutions planned for your property and lifestyle, aligned with your budget and delivered with full-service support the whole way through.
Turn Your Backyard Into Income-Generating Living Space
Accessory Dwelling Units are transforming how Monterey County homeowners use their property. Whether you’re looking to house aging parents, generate rental income, create a home office, or add property value, an ADU offers flexibility that traditional additions can’t match.
But building in Monterey County isn’t simple. Coastal zone restrictions, city-specific regulations, and strict permitting requirements make ADU construction challenging.

Site Prep & Evaluation
Get your property ADU-ready with expert site evaluation, grading, and utility setup—all handled for a seamless build.
ADU Design & Construction
Create the perfect ADU with our custom design and planning services. We work with you to design a space that meets your needs, whether it’s for additional living quarters, a rental unit, a home office, or a guest house.
Three ADU Options for Your Property
Detached ADU
Maximum privacy and rental potential with a fully independent living space. Perfect for long-term rentals, multigenerational living, or guest housing. Built from the ground up with coastal-grade materials that withstand salt air and marine layer moisture.
Garage Conversion ADU
The most cost-effective ADU option since the structure already exists. We handle utility connections, insulation upgrades, and interior buildout while maintaining exterior aesthetics that match your home.
Attached ADU
Built onto your existing home with shared walls but separate entrance. Creates close proximity for family while maintaining independence. Often the fastest permit approval since it's considered a home addition.
