Featured Reviews for ADU Contractors in Lake Forest

OC Builders Group
ADU Contractors in Lake Forest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 5, 2019
“We hired OC Builders for a full Kitchen remodel and an installation of a 20’ sliding door. When we met our contractor, Moe, he went over everything in detail and answered all of our questions. Moe was happy to give advice on materials and design but was also fine working with our design. It was a nice balance. We’ve had mixed experiences with contractors on smaller projects in the past but we’re so glad we hired OC for this project. Everything went as expected and there were no surprises. The original quote was pretty close to what the final charges were and the timeline went very smoothly. Moe was extremely communicative and addressed any issue we had in a timely manner. The site was always left very clean every day and the workmen were very professional. We are finished now and loving everything about our beautiful open kitchen and large new doors that open to our back yard. We will not hesitate to hire OC Builders again for future projects.”

“This was our second experience with Construction Services. Charlene’s design recommendations were wonderful – all to our complete liking. Michael’s general management made everything flow smoothly, and he readily accommodated all of our “extra requests”. The job was completed timely and thoroughly. Pricing was fair and paperwork complete. We would certainly recommend them and will use their services again when needed.”
Cutler Construction Services, Inc.
ADU Contractors in Lake Forest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 13, 2014
“Cutler construction renovated three bathrooms for us, two on the second floor. That included tile flooring (with special materials to avoid cracking), custom vanities, granite counter tops, lighting, exhaust fans, and mirrors, as well as painting. They replaced several ceiling fans, all of our smoke detectors, and added CO detectors. Their work was professional and high grade: no bs, no missed deadlines, no cheating on quality, just total honesty and great craftsmanship. We are extremely pleased and will use Cutler construction in future projects.”

Graham's Construction
ADU Contractors in Lake Forest
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 28, 2021
“I have used Graham's Construction on numerous projects at my home, including refacing my fireplace, a complete bathroom remodel, scraping my ceilings and the installation of new floors in my guest bedroom. John, the owner, also did a build-out at my office building, which turned out beautifully. Recently I hired Graham's Construction to do a kitchen remodel at my home changing out my tile to granite, installing a new stove and sink. John, as always, did a beautiful job. I would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a general contractor to do any type of work, whether it be on your home or commercial building.”

“My experience with Audrey Sato was outstanding. She truly is a talented architect who has both great vision and is detail oriented; making the process of designing and constructing my fitness studio a fun and seamless one. I appreciated that she kept in constant contact with me, and was very hands on from design through construction. I felt comfortable asking questions and giving input, and am was very satisfied with the results. Pictures of the studio can be found on Facebook under 'The Dailey Method Calabasas'. Its a beautiful space. Clients of the studio rave about how beautiful, well lit, and comfortable the space is. And we owe it all to Audrey Sato Design Studio!”

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 Lake Forest. 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 Lake Forest: 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.
