We check whether your lot allows a detached additional residential unit and at what size.
Siting, setbacks and access
Where it can go, how far from the lot lines, and how emergency access is met.
Drawings and permit
Architectural and structural drawings prepared and the building permit filed and tracked.
Servicing
Water, sanitary and electrical routes from the house or the street, coordinated with the utilities.
Foundation
Slab, piers or full foundation, chosen for the soil, the servicing and the design.
Shell and envelope
Framing, roof, windows, doors and cladding, insulated and air sealed to Code.
