ADU Construction in Miami
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a secondary, self-contained living space on a single-family lot. ADUs can provide housing for family, rental income, or a private workspace — but whether your property qualifies depends on zoning, lot conditions, and applicable codes.
What adu construction involves
We help homeowners evaluate ADU feasibility, then design and build detached ADUs, attached ADUs, garage-to-living-space conversions, guest suites, and in-law suites. We coordinate the planning, design, permitting, and construction — and we're upfront that feasibility depends on your property and governmental approvals.

What shapes this project
Zoning and feasibility
ADU eligibility depends on zoning, lot size, setbacks, and existing structures. Not every property qualifies — feasibility must be confirmed.
Permitting
ADUs require plans, permits, and inspections. We do not promise permit approval; we submit complete applications and coordinate the process.
Utilities
ADUs need electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. Connecting to existing utilities may have requirements that affect design and cost.
