The cheapest bid is rarely the lowest final cost. Delays, change orders, and warranty headaches add up fast. The fix is a clean scope from a solid design — then a short list of builders who actually do ADUs.

How it works

A simple path from idea to a build-ready ADU.

1
Finalize your design
Lock in a floorplan and, ideally, a plan review so your scope is clear.
2
Tell us your project
Share your design, location, and timeline so we can match the right builders.
3
Compare real quotes
Get bids on the same scope so you can compare them fairly.
4
Choose with confidence
Pick a builder based on scope, schedule, and track record — not just price.

A clean scope is your best negotiating tool

When every contractor bids on the exact same floorplan and finish level, the differences in their numbers become meaningful. Without that, you are comparing assumptions, and the low bid often hides the most exclusions.

That is why we recommend designing and reviewing your plan before requesting matches — it turns vague estimates into real, comparable quotes.

Builders who know the local process

ADU approval and inspection vary city to city. Matching with builders who already work in your jurisdiction means fewer surprises with inspectors, utilities, and the permit office.
