Here’s a comparison between building an ADU on your own and building an ADU with Superior ADUs:
| ON YOUR OWN | WITH SUPERIOR ADUs |
|---|---|
| DESIGN: 2 – 3 MONTHS Find & hire an architect. Initial to final design. | DESIGN: 2 – 4 WEEKS Our pre-designed plans shorten the design-phase. |
| PERMIT: 2 – 3 MONTHS You must communicate with the city and handle requested revisions. | PERMIT: 2 – 6 WEEKS Our experience & relationships with the cities help us navigate the system faster. |
| BUILD: 4 – 6 MONTHS Find & hire a contractor. Start to finish. | BUILD: 2 – 3 MONTHS Our experienced contractors are ready to go! |
| TOTAL TIME: 8 – 12 MONTHS | TOTAL TIME: 3 – 5 MONTHS |
Since Superior ADUs has already paid for an architect to produce several floor plans and schematics, you don’t have to! You simply choose from one of our masterfully designed models, and the drawings are sent to the city for approval. Each model then has three different finish packages to choose from, offering you a variety of styles and material options. Our licensed contractors are also familiar with each model and finish package, making the construction process smooth and easy. The architects even guarantee their work for ten years and the general contractor guarantees for a year. With Superior ADUs you save precious time and money!
Our Models:
Superior ADUs has pre-designed, developed, and engineered these Model ADUs so you don’t have to. A great amount of time and money goes into custom designing an ADU from scratch, which can make building an ADU quite costly. Superior ADUs has already developed the plans for each model, so you don’t have to spend the time and money to work with an architect, one on one. You simply select a model and the plans are ready to be submitted to the city for approval. This greatly speeds up the process and reduces the expense of paying an architect to draw up a new set of plans. Thus, our Model ADUs are less expensive than if you were to have a custom ADU built on your own.
