Additional dwelling units have been popping up all over California. After the state passed legislation encouraging ADUs and making it easier than ever to build them, cities all over California have begun to see a rise in the number of ADUs built in them. If you are looking to build a unit yourself, here are some tips to help you find the best ADU services in LA.
Word-Of-Mouth Referrals
If you are looking to build an ADU yourself, the best place to look for ADU professionals is your friends, family, and neighbors. Someone you know has likely built an ADU on their property. They will have had either a positive or negative experience with the ADU professionals they chose to work with. This can help you narrow down your search by knowing who to consider, and who not to.
If no one you know has built an ADU in the area, you can go online to look for positive reviews and referrals. Facebook can be a great place to get opinions from a lot of different people, and so can Yelp. Make sure you read the positive reviews and the negative ones.
Find Someone with Experience
Our second tip for finding the best ADU services is to look for someone with experience building in LA. Every jurisdiction has different rules and regulations when it comes to ADUs. Hiring an ADU professional who is well aware of the laws in LA can save you time and money during the permitting process.
Also, someone with ADU experience will be able to give you key design tips to help you save space and money. They will be aware of how important vertical space is, having lots of natural light, and the budgeting process.

Be Wary Of Pricing
You should almost never hire someone who has a too-good-to-be-true price. Chances are that isn’t their actual price or they don’t have the experience necessary to complete a quality project. Always be sure to ask about their fees and years of experience. You should also be sure you are working with a licensed and insured professional.
