ADUs & Garage Conversions

Accessory dwelling units can create flexible living space, rental potential, and long-term property value when the scope is planned clearly from the start.

Standard West Builders helps homeowners think through the practical details that often shape ADU cost and quality: access, utilities, grading, structural work, finish level, waterproofing, windows, doors, cabinetry, tile, flooring, and how the new space connects to the existing property.

Garage Conversions

A good garage conversion is more than adding finishes to an existing shell. It should address code, insulation, moisture control, natural light, sound, utility tie-ins, and a layout that feels like a real dwelling rather than leftover space.

Detached ADUs

Detached ADUs need careful planning around site access, foundation conditions, utility runs, privacy, drainage, and the finished look of the main property. A detailed scope helps homeowners compare bids more fairly and avoid surprises later.
