ADU ROUGH PRICELIST
20X20 garage conversion
I know every homeowner is looking for the best price possible to build their ADU. One way to save homeowners time is by eliminating the process of meeting with multiple contractors to get an Estimate. This is why I have created a rough estimate price list from the contractors on our site. Yes, the cost of plumbing and electrical is high however we are trying to connect homeowners with experienced ADU Subcontractors.

Owner Builder
Please read the information from the state of California regarding building a project as an Owner Builder.

OPTIONS
Some contractors on our list may not have the best price possible for some sections of work therefore, by taking a look at their rough price, you as the homeowner can decide to book an appointment or keep looking for a better deal. When homeowners work with our suggested contractors their ADU Experience makes the only difference
ADU's
ARE EXPENCIVE
The average cost to build an ADU with a company is between $120,000 - $180,000 for a 20X20 garage conversion with average finishes. By working with Subcontractors directly, the cost to build an ADU could be $74,000. Homeowners will save an average of 37% ($44,000) of the construction cost. Homeowners could save an additional 6-10% if they get dirty and do some basic work on their ADU.
