What Does an ADU Cost
in Los Angeles?
ADU costs in Los Angeles can vary widely based on the type of unit, site conditions, utility work, structural requirements, permit needs, materials, and finish level.
Garage
Conversions
Garage conversions may be more cost-effective when the existing structure is usable, but costs depend on foundation, framing, utilities, insulation, windows, doors, and interior finishes.
Attached
ADUs
Attached ADUs often involve structural tie-ins, layout planning, utility connections, exterior integration, and careful coordination with the existing home.
Detached
ADUs
Detached ADUs are essentially new small homes, with separate foundations, framing, roofing, utilities, kitchens, bathrooms, finishes, and site work.
These ranges are general planning figures, not fixed pricing. The best way to understand your ADU budget is to review the property, desired layout, finish level, permitting requirements, and construction scope together.

“My husband and I used Overland Remodeling to add a master bedroom/bath to our 2 bedroom house. Working with Shahar and his team was a really wonderful experience. There weren't any surprises and everything went very smoothly - which was so important as we had a newborn and toddler at home at the time! They finished on time and on budget and we LOVE our master suite so much! We highly recommend Overland Builders to anyone looking!”Read More Reviews →

Common Questions About
Building an ADU.
What is an ADU?
An ADU, or accessory dwelling unit, is a secondary living space built on the same property as a primary home. It may be a detached backyard unit, attached addition, garage conversion, or junior ADU depending on the property and project goals.
Do you handle both ADU design and construction?
Yes. Overland Remodeling & Builders uses a design-build approach, helping coordinate planning, design direction, material selections, permitting, construction, and project oversight through one organized process.
Do ADUs in Los Angeles require permits?
Yes. ADU projects in Los Angeles typically require permits and approvals, especially when the work involves new construction, structural changes, utilities, plumbing, electrical, mechanical systems, or a garage conversion.
Can you help with ADU permits?
Yes. We help coordinate the permitting process as part of the overall ADU project, working to keep the design, construction details, and required approvals organized before construction begins.
How much does an ADU cost in Los Angeles?
ADU costs vary based on the type of unit, site conditions, utility work, structural requirements, materials, finishes, and permit needs. Garage conversions often cost less than detached ADUs, while custom detached units are usually the most involved.
How long does it take to build an ADU?
The timeline depends on design, permitting, scope, inspections, site conditions, and the type of ADU. A garage conversion may move faster than a detached ADU, while a custom new structure usually requires more planning and construction time.
