ADU Contractor in San Jose

An accessory dwelling unit, usually just called an ADU, is a secondary housing unit on a single-family residential lot. The term “accessory dwelling unit” is a institutional-sounding name, but it’s the most commonly-used term across the country to describe this type of housing. While the full name is a mouthful, the shorthand “ADU” is better.

What is an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit)

The fact that it’s a secondary housing unit—rather than a given structural form—is what defines an ADU.. But, when we’re learning about concepts, it’s natural to want to know what that concept looks like in the flesh. We want to visually embed the design concept in our brains as a tangible object that we can mentally reference. However, ADUs vary in their physical form quite a bit, so allow me to broaden that mental model by exposing you to the range of common ADU types, in order to better understand what they are.

Types Of ADUs

Adding an accessory dwelling unit, or ADU, to your home is a smart way to not only provide more living space, but also add significant value. Here are the 4 most common types of ADUs, what they cost on average, and how they can enhance your space in the long run.

Detached new construction ADUs

Accessory dwelling units (ADUs) are additions that create secondary standalone or interior housing on a single-family lot. ADUs may be tiny, but they can become a second income source or provide multi-generational housing with extra privacy. They’re ideal for home offices, guest suites, in-law apartments, rental units, and Airbnbs. However, before you invest in a renovation or new building project, there are a few things to know before committing to an ADU.

Addition ADUs

The room addition is excellent to help the growing family; It gives you the extra space needed without having to move. One great thing that can help is that the garage can convert into a room is there is no extra space to add-on. If there is no garage, a loft is another great way to help make the house roomier. Room additions are a great way to add value to the home and extra space to the home.

Nan Construction was the first responder to our request for a quote and upon seeing photos of the required repairs, gave us a price which we accepted and a date for our fairly smal repair job. They came promptly at the agreed upon time and did a perfect job. We couldn't be happier with this company and highly recommend them.

Victor and his crew helped me remodel my old garage. They did the framing, new electric wiring, installed insulation, new drywall, and new lights, and painted every corner. During the project, Victor and his assistant always keep me informed on the progress. I am delighted with the result. My garage looks day and night different now. Thanks to their professional practice.
