How we work

A single team. From the first sketch to your front door.

Most ADU projects fail in the handoffs. We keep architecture, engineering, permitting, and building under one accountable team — so timelines hold and surprises are rare.

  1. 1
    Step 01

    Discovery & feasibility

    We review your lot, zoning, setbacks, trees, and goals. You receive a clear feasibility outlook before any commitment.

  2. 2
    Step 02

    Survey & site analysis

    Licensed surveyors map your property. We assess utilities, drainage, access, and tree protection.

  3. 3
    Step 03

    Design & architecture

    Schematic design tailored to your taste — modern, craftsman, or PNW contemporary — refined into permit-ready drawings.

  4. 4
    Step 04

    Engineering

    Structural, MEP, and stormwater engineering coordinated under one roof to avoid the usual handoff friction.

  5. 5
    Step 05

    Permitting

    We submit, respond to corrections, and coordinate with SDCI on your behalf — keeping you informed at every milestone.

  6. 6
    Step 06

    Construction

    Our in-house build team executes with weekly progress updates, transparent budgets, and a single accountable lead.

  7. 7
    Step 07

    Handoff & warranty

    Final walkthrough, systems orientation, and a 2-year workmanship warranty. We're a phone call away after move-in.
