Types of ADU Construction

The first question most people ask is, “should I go with a stick-built ADU or a prefab ADU?” Most ADU builders specialize in one or the other or both. Our experts work with you, ensuring your account for critical factors like general cost, the need for a general contractor, building conditions, customization, and disruption. We assess your specific needs to ensure you choose the appropriate type of ADU construction without compromising the aesthetics of your landscape or exceeding the budget.

Total Cost

Price is paramount if you want to hire professional ADU builders, and more so, depending on your preferred ADU construction. A stick-built ADU costs more than a prefab one per square foot, but schedule an inspection and get quotes from several contractors before breaking ground. Professional ADU builders will issue a detailed quote of all the costs involved, including the unit, site prep, permits, utility hookups, and more. Steer clear of contractors who issue quotes via the phone to avoid overage charges during and after the project.

Timeline

Another critical factor to consider before ADU contractors commence construction is the timeline. A prefab is the best option if you need a backyard dwelling unit fast. Soto Bay Construction leverages proven production and process efficiencies to build and install a backyard home quickly. Inexperienced ADU prefab builders take longer, especially when it comes to stick-built construction. You can avoid such inconveniences by scheduling a consultation with our highly trained ADU builders, ensuring you start and complete your project within the timeline.

Project Management

DIY construction projects are often daunting and full of hurdles. Managing the project can be overwhelming, from getting the permits to coordinating with utility agencies and vendors. Luckily, it doesn’t have to be! Once you hire Soto Bay Construction, we handle all the heavy lifting and collaborate with other construction professionals when necessary to ensure everything runs smoothly. We go the extra mile for our clients so you can focus on other things while we work to complete your backyard home.

Lastly, it is crucial to know various ADU builders’ different capabilities and attitudes before starting the project. The last thing you want is to work with a company that doesn’t put your needs first, leading to delays and a waste of resources. Contact us at Soto Bay Construction and schedule a consultation with a certified ADU or deck contractor. We guarantee top-quality construction services at competitive rates.

Deck Construction in Dublin

An ADU might be the best way to get more cash flow from your backyard, but a new deck is the best way to enjoy it.
