ADU PLANNING

REPurpose

 your backyard

The Additional Space you need is waiting right outside your door

The first thing you need to do is find out what you can build in your neighborhood. San Diego County has different regulations in different areas. Once you know what is allowed in your area, then look into the cost of building an ADU in San Diego County. We can help you, just ask your questions and we will answer.

The Affordable Alternative

Most of the time, the cost to build an ADU on an  existing property is much more affordable than buying a single family home anywhere in San Diego. Explore your options with us. Look at Granny Flat Floor Plans.

The versatile

Accessory Dwelling Unit

These backyard homes serve many functions. We have built ADUs that are used as backyard rentals, granny flats, and backyard offices. We build garage conversions that serve as over the garage apartments and we can even convert your garage to a room or a gym. We build to suit your needs. It's fun to explore the possibilities with our team - call us today!

San Diego County does not allow Homeowners to build every type of ADU in every neighborhood in San Diego. Many of our clients have come to us after they learned that their adu floor plans could not be built. Ritz ADU Design Build has a systematic ADU planning process that includes fully researching the permitting rules in your neighborhood before we even begin the design phase. Ritz ADU Design Build has extensive experience in walking our designs through the approval process.

3D Designs

& Modifications

After we meet with you, we’ll provide you with a design and a full estimate. Our designer renders designs in full-color digital 3D models that give you the opportunity to “walk through” your designs to get the flow of the home and to see if the floorplans work to your liking before you sign a contract or begin to build.

Site Evaluation

& Measurements

We will make an appointment to come to your home to assess the space you want to use. We will take measurements of the space and structures that may be involved and submit the information to our 3D ADU Design team for renderings. We will take all of that information and put together an estimate of what it will cost to build your ADU.
