DB Construction – ADU Contractor Serving Greater Los Angeles
DB Construction is a full-service ADU contractor and room addition builder operating throughout the Greater Los Angeles area. They handle projects from the initial permitting stage through to turn-key completion, offering homeowners a structured path to adding legal, permitted living space to their properties.
Accessory Dwelling Units have become an increasingly practical option for California homeowners. Updated state ADU rules have made it easier to build legally, and a number of cities now offer pre-approved ADU plans that can help streamline the permitting process. DB Construction works within this framework to help property owners take advantage of these opportunities.
Types of ADUs and Additions DB Construction Builds
DB Construction works on a range of project types, including:
- Detached ADUs – Standalone backyard units, sometimes referred to as backyard cottages, granny flats, or Casitas, built as separate structures on the property.
- Garage conversions – Converting an existing attached or detached garage into a livable accessory dwelling unit.
- Junior ADUs (JADUs) – Smaller units created within the existing footprint of a home, typically up to 500 square feet.
- In-law suites – Interior or attached units designed to accommodate extended family or generate rental income.
- Room additions and home additions – Expanding the existing home with additional bedrooms, home offices, or general living space, all built with full permits and a defined timeline.
For homeowners who need more space but prefer not to build a detached unit, room additions offer a practical alternative. DB Construction designs and builds these expansions with the same permitting process applied to their ADU projects.
What to Expect Working with DB Construction
DB Construction positions itself as a full-service ADU builder rather than just a general contractor. This means they manage the permitting process in-house, which can reduce delays and keep the project moving on a clearer timeline.
Their process typically includes:
- A free initial consultation and cost estimate
- A step-by-step breakdown of ADU construction costs
- In-house permit handling to help keep timelines on track
Cost transparency is part of their approach. Homeowners are given a clear picture of what the project will involve financially before work begins, which helps with planning and budgeting.
DB Construction serves the broader Greater Los Angeles region, making them an option for homeowners across a wide geographic area who are looking for an experienced accessory dwelling unit builder to manage their project from start to finish.
