Life is changing, and your home must also be capable of changing.

Each addition that we construct is intended to provide a real livable square footage not four walls and a roof, but a place that you would want to be in each day.
ADU Construction, California's Smartest Long-Term Investment
Accessory Dwelling Units have become one of the most in-demand construction projects across California, and for good reason. A well-built ADU gives homeowners the flexibility to house family members, generate rental income, increase property value, and make better use of underutilized lot space — all at the same time. California’s ADU laws have made it easier than ever to build on single-family lots, and Calif Construction Service has the hands-on experience to navigate the entire process from feasibility assessment to final city sign-off. We build detached ADUs from the ground up, convert existing garages into fully permitted living units, add junior ADUs within existing home footprints, and construct attached ADUs that share a wall with the primary residence. Our decade of ADU construction experience means we understand soil reports, setback requirements, utility connection logistics, and owner-builder exemption rules so your project moves forward without costly surprises or unnecessary delays.
What Is the ADU Construction Process in California?
Knowing the process of ADU construction enables homeowners to make plans that are confident and to have realistic expectations at the beginning. This will start by conducting a site feasibility analysis in which we analyze your lot size, setbacks, access points to utilities and the current structure condition. At that point, we organize architectural drawings and structural engineering plans, file applications with your city building department and handle back and forth with plan checkers on your behalf. Construction After permits have been issued, construction proceeds in a definite order site preparation and foundation, framing and sheathing, roofing, rough plumbing and electrical, insulation and drywall, cabinetry and fixtures, and lastly painting and finish work. At each stage, our project managers have a clear-cut schedule and inform you of the progress, deliveries of materials, and inspection stages.
How Long Does It Take to Build an ADU or Home Addition?
A question that homeowners pose most frequently to us is how long the process should take and the truthful answer is based on the amount of work and the complexity of the project. In the case of a garage conversion ADU, the building process normally takes six to ten weeks after the permits are received. An average detached ADU that has been constructed on the ground in most cases, will require three to five months between permit issuance and being move-in ready. Home room additions are diverse in size, however most of single-room additions on existing foundations are built in a time span of eight to twelve weeks after the groundbreaking.
The time taken to permit varies between four and twelve weeks in various cities all over Alameda County based on the completeness of the applicant and workload in the city, and as a result, it is so crucial to have a well-established contractor who will submit clean and complete permit packages the first time around. Our experience of permit work in Oakland, Hayward, and other nearby jurisdictions ensures that fewer revision requests are made, more approvals are done sooner, and the overall process is more pleasant to all of our clients.
