Featured Reviews for ADU Contractors in Novato

Franco Builders LLC
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 15, 2022
“Franco runs a team of extremely skilled and extremely efficient carpenters, excavators and concrete crews. I have done many projects with them including smaller renovations, a very large renovation and a very challenging ground up house. To each project they brought an extremely talented team of craftsmen and completed the work with the utmost integrity and professionalism. They’re pricing is extremely competitive and their execution second to none. Could not recommend them more strongly.”
New Key Construction
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 25, 2019
“NewKey has been by far the best GC in the Bay area I have ever worked with. From the start of planning, to the coordination with their subs and team members for installs, they have been very detail oriented. As challenges arise which they always do, they actually pick up the phone when you call and work on resolutions within hours not days or weeks! I am thrilled with the progress and would recommend them to anyone. Now that I have a great remodeled kitchen - I look forward to them doing my master bath!”
Harris House Design
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 12, 2024
“Sami did a wonderful job on our home. We love her style so we pretty much gave her Carte Blanche to do what ever she wanted to based on our budget. She redid the floors, painted the interior and switched out our front door and some windows. She then added all sorts of fun touches like painting the exterior walkway & pool decking to make them really stand out. Put beautiful planters by the front door that really enhance the area. The extra touches were very inexpensive but made a HUGE difference to the overall appearance of the property. We are so glad we trusted our gut and just let her do her thing. She has an amazing eye and some of her suggestions were so simple like moving stuff around and rearranging certain things the end result is fabulous.”
AYA Homes, LLC
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 3, 2019
“Shawn Aya of Aya Homes built the home that we bought. He built this house with a lot of quality in it. The workmanship was very good. The house has lot of upgrades that he put in the house. Some of the upgrades are 8 foot high insulated ceiling in the garage, a passive radon system, three-quarter inch stained solid wood floor, tray ceilings in all bedrooms, under kitchen cabinets LED lights, wider stairs to the basement, decora light switches to name a few. We built the house finished. Most of the upgrades he built into the house, we did not add them. We do not know anything about the project dates, costs, and deadlines.”

building Lab, inc.
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 28, 2013
“Buildind Lab provided both design and build services for a stand alone au-pair suite at our property. Stephen Shoup was personally involved through the effort. He and his team's commitment to quality, detail and excellence was indeed stellar. They understood us as clients and our needs and specific tastes. They truly listened and reacted with speed. They stuck to their original budget and timeline. Above everything else, their strive for perfection and desire to exceed expectations is indicative about the ethic and pride they bring to their work, day-in and day-out. In short it was an absolute pleasure to work with them and we would highly recommend them.”
John Lum Architecture, Inc. AIA
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 3, 2011
“We used John Lum Architecture for the complete remodel of ~1000 sq ft in San Francisco. John and team were fantastic to work with. Very creative yet good at listening to our thoughts and integrating our ideas. They understand how to both design a gorgeous contemporary space while still keeping it comfortable and livable. We depended on them with a lot of design detail recommendations such as fixtures, paint, tiles and they always had great suggestions that made the process much simpler and easy to manage. They are very professional, extremely responsive and timely. There were no surprises during the entire process including on deadlines and budgets. I would strongly recommend them.”
Smith and Son Construction
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 26, 2022
“I have several reasons for highly recommending Smith & Son Inc. Our project was the installation of a composite deck over a worn out cement patio. Out of the three quotes we received, Lance Smith not only provided us with a detailed quote very quickly, he was the only individual we met with who followed up with us by telephone to discuss his quote. This discussion led to further clarity regarding our project and savings on the overall cost, putting us within our budget. Lance recommended a particular decking material which we are extremely pleased with. Knowing we were eager to start, Lance found a way to begin our project much sooner than expected. His three man crew was led by a seasoned and experienced foreman who not only guided his team, but also checked in with us frequently to make sure we were satisfied. Noe took great pride in his work and was very eager to please. They kept the work area tidy and safely stowed their equipment at the end of their workday. We are very happy with the finished project which exceeded our expectations. We would not hesitate to use Smith & Son again and would highly recommend them to friends and family.”
Studio300A Architecture
ADU Contractors in Novato
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 16, 2018
“We hired Barry because we saw the beautiful work he has done for so many of our neighbors. I am an interior designer and have worked with many architects so this was a leap for me. Barry has been a DELIGHT to work with. He is smart, professional, timely in his response, flexible, and works well with the other professionals on our project. I have found that architects are often either technical architects or design architects. Barry is a creative design architect first, but all his technical skills are excellent as well. He has done extensive drawings, worked seamlessly with all engineers and contractors, gotten our permits, and made us feel that we have a true advocate throughout the process. I would highly recommend him. You will be so happy you did!”

An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a separate living space that can be added to your property. It functions as an additional dwelling on the same land where your main home is located. ADUs have their own amenities and entrance, providing a self-contained living area. Unlike a traditional home, an ADU cannot be sold separately and is considered part of the same property.

ADUs are subject to specific zoning regulations and building codes in Novato. These regulations determine where and how an ADU can be constructed, ensuring compliance with local laws and requirements. It’s important to consult with local authorities or a professional contractor who is familiar with ADU regulations in your area to understand the specific legal differences and ensure your ADU meets all necessary criteria.

Consider these options for cost-effective ADU:
  1. Prefabricated ADUs: Affordable and easy to assemble, they’re a practical choice. Many prefab ADUs cost under $100,000.
  2. Traditional Construction: Work with an ADU contractor to find budget-friendly options and make smart choices.
Tips for cost-effective ADU construction:
  1. Define your needs: Determine the purpose of your ADU, whether it’s for family, rental income, or a home office.
  2. Consult a contractor in Novato: Their expertise can help with cost-effective materials, designs, and planning.
  3. Prefabricated components: Consider using prefabricated elements like cabinets or bathroom fixtures to save time and money.
  4. Explore financing options: Look for ADU-specific loans or programs to help cover costs.
Ensure compliance with local regulations and seek professional advice. A knowledgeable contractor can make the process smoother and cost-effective.
