California law makes it easier than ever to add an accessory dwelling unit to your property. Eco Grizzly manages ADU projects from feasibility assessment through final occupancy. We handle architectural plans, city permits, utility connections, and construction. Whether you want a detached backyard unit, a garage conversion, or a junior ADU carved from existing space, we deliver a finished, permitted living space on time and on budget.

ADU Construction

Types of ADUs We Build

Detached ADUs: standalone structures up to 1,200 square feet built in your backyard. Garage conversions: transforming an existing attached or detached garage into a fully permitted living unit. Junior ADUs (JADUs): up to 500 square feet created within the footprint of an existing home. We also build above-garage ADUs where site conditions allow.

Permits and Regulations

California Senate Bill 9 and AB 68 streamlined ADU permitting statewide. Most jurisdictions must approve ADU plans within 60 days. We prepare all architectural drawings, structural calculations, Title 24 energy compliance documents, and permit applications. We also coordinate with utility companies for new water, sewer, and electrical service.

Construction Process

After permits are approved, construction typically takes three to six months. Our team handles foundation, framing, roofing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, drywall, flooring, cabinets, and finish work. We schedule city inspections at each milestone and provide regular progress updates with photos.

ADU Construction FAQs


Common questions answered by our certified technicians.

A garage conversion ADU typically costs $80,000 to $150,000. A new detached ADU ranges from $150,000 to $350,000 depending on size, finishes, and site conditions. We provide a detailed estimate after the feasibility assessment.

Yes. California law allows homeowners to rent ADUs as long-term housing. Some cities restrict short-term rentals (30 days or less). Check your local zoning regulations or ask us during the consultation.
In most cases, no. California law eliminates parking requirements for ADUs located within half a mile of public transit or in a historic district. Even outside those areas, many cities have waived or reduced parking mandates.
