Premium ADU

Premium ADU is an ADU design-build company serving Los Angeles and surrounding areas, specializing in custom accessory dwelling units and related residential projects. Established in 2021, the company provides an end-to-end process covering consultation, custom design, permitting, construction, inspections, and final completion. Premium ADU states that it uses an in-house team rather than subcontractors and focuses exclusively on ADU and related residential construction projects.

An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) — also referred to as a granny flat, in-law suite, backyard cottage, or secondary dwelling unit — is an independent residential space located on the same property as a primary home. Premium ADU works with several approaches to creating additional living space:

1. New Construction ADU: A newly constructed dwelling designed specifically for the homeowner’s property, with Premium ADU handling the custom design and construction process.
2. Garage Conversion: Existing garage space can be converted into a functional ADU, allowing homeowners to transform underutilized space into additional housing. The company’s project gallery specifically features garage-conversion ADUs.
3. Room Additions: Premium ADU also provides room additions as part of its residential construction services, creating additional usable space that can be incorporated into an ADU project where appropriate.
4. Custom ADU Designs: The company provides customized designs developed around the homeowner’s needs, property, budget, and intended use of the new space.

What Premium ADU Offers Beyond Construction

Premium ADU positions itself as a full-service ADU design-build company, rather than simply a construction contractor. Its process starts with a free consultation, during which the team discusses the homeowner’s needs, budget, and vision for the project.

The company provides custom design services through its architects, followed by assistance with permits and approvals. Premium ADU states that it handles the permitting process and helps ensure that projects meet applicable local regulations and zoning requirements.

Once plans and approvals are in place, the company’s in-house construction team manages the build. Premium ADU emphasizes that it does not rely on subcontractors, instead using its own skilled professionals for construction. The company also manages final inspections to ensure the completed ADU meets applicable requirements.

Premium ADU also offers financing options, helping homeowners explore ways to fund an ADU project. The company highlights ADUs as potential sources of additional living space, family accommodation, or rental income.
