ADU Construction Services
Potato Construction has developed a focused approach to accessory dwelling unit construction. As an experienced ADU contractor serving the San Gabriel Valley and surrounding areas, they work to minimize soft costs while maintaining full compliance with local city regulations. Rather than directing clients through an expensive architectural design process, they streamline the workflow to deliver comparable quality at lower overall costs.
An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is a self-contained living space located on the same property as a primary single-family home. These units — also referred to as granny flats, in-law suites, backyard cottages, or Casitas — have grown in popularity due to recent legislative changes that have made the permitting and building process more accessible and affordable for homeowners.
As an ADU builder, Potato Construction handles several types of accessory dwelling units:
- Detached ADU: A separate structure built on the same lot as the main home, with its own entrance and amenities.
- Garage conversion: An existing garage is converted into a livable dwelling unit, often a cost-effective option for homeowners.
- Attached ADU: An addition to or conversion within the existing main structure, integrated into the primary living area.
- Detached ADU with JADU: A detached structure that also includes a Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU) — a smaller self-contained space within the main unit, suitable for multi-generational living or rental income.
ADUs can serve a variety of purposes depending on the homeowner's needs, including:
- Increasing property value
- Generating rental income
- Providing space for family members or guests
- Creating a dedicated home office or workspace
Potato Construction offers free consultations to help homeowners understand what is feasible on their lot, taking into account city requirements and available space. Their process includes assessing feasibility, designing the ADU to fit the specific property, and customizing the build to suit the homeowner's lifestyle.
Residential, Commercial, and Development Services
Beyond ADU construction, Potato Construction provides a broader range of building services. Their residential construction services are tailored to individual client needs, with attention to quality control throughout each project. On the commercial side, they adapt their services to suit a diverse range of clients and project types.
In recent years, Potato Construction has also expanded into residential and mixed-use real estate development, drawing on their knowledge of the local markets in which they operate. This combination of construction expertise and market familiarity allows them to take on development projects with a practical, grounded perspective.
Past ADU projects completed by Potato Construction span multiple cities in the greater Los Angeles area, including Alhambra, Arcadia, Monterey Park, Rosemead, Temple City, and Riverside — demonstrating their active presence as a backyard cottage builder and garage conversion contractor across Southern California.
