An ADU is a small build with full-size decisions—site, utilities, comfort, and long-term use all matter. Start by defining the purpose: long-term rental, multigenerational living, guest space, or a dedicated work zone. That choice shapes layout, storage, privacy, and finish durability. Durable, low-maintenance materials reduce long-term stress, especially in high-traffic areas or rental-oriented spaces. If you’re comparing approaches, weigh detached vs. garage conversion vs. basement unit based on site access, utility distance, and how much disruption you can tolerate. For a clear overview and a sensible starting checklist, see: adu design build. A realistic schedule includes ordering lead times and inspection windows, not just a hopeful start date. If you’re collecting bids, ask for a written scope with exclusions listed—this prevents misunderstandings later. Keep a short list of non-negotiables so decisions stay consistent as options multiply. Good plans reduce rework; rework is where budgets quietly leak. Keep a short list of non-negotiables so decisions stay consistent as options multiply.
