Essential Design Innovator is a licensed general contractor (CA Lic. #1042417) with our office right here in Garden Grove. We build ADUs from the first sketch through plans, city permits, construction and final inspection, with one team the whole way. We work with homeowners in English and Tiếng Việt.
An ADU (accessory dwelling unit) is a second, separate home on your property. Families build them for parents, grown children, guests or rental income. We build four kinds:
A new standalone home in your backyard, with its own entrance, kitchen and bathroom.
A new unit built onto your existing house, with its own entrance.
Your existing garage turned into a full living space.
A smaller unit created inside your existing home.
Not sure which one fits your lot? We'll look at it with you on a free site visit.
We come out, look at your lot, and talk through what you want to build and why.
We prepare the plans for your ADU and walk you through them before anything is submitted.
We handle the permit submittal with the City of Garden Grove and follow it through.
Our team builds your ADU and keeps you updated along the way.
We see the job through final city inspection so your new unit is ready to live in.
Every ADU in Garden Grove needs a building permit from the city. We prepare the plans and handle the submittal for you, so you don't have to work it out on your own. Every lot is different, so we check your property's specifics during the site visit.
On this Garden Grove property, we built a new detached ADU in the backyard and remodeled the front house. The project also included hardscaping, solar and a driveway expansion, all done by one team.
