About G.J. Gardner Homes Sacramento

G.J. Gardner Homes Sacramento – Custom Home and ADU Builder

G.J. Gardner Homes Sacramento is a locally operated custom home building company serving the greater Sacramento area. Led by owner Lisa Rayman, the team works with clients through every stage of the building process — from initial permitting through to construction and warranty support.

The company handles projects of varying sizes and styles, including custom homes, accessory dwelling units (ADUs), ranch-style homes, two-story homes, first home buyer builds, and house and land packages. As an ADU builder and accessory dwelling unit builder, G.J. Gardner Homes Sacramento offers clients a structured path through what can otherwise be a complex process.

Sacramento and its surrounding communities — including Folsom, Elk Grove, and Citrus Heights — feature a wide variety of lot sizes, shapes, and configurations. This diversity calls for a builder familiar with local conditions and zoning requirements. The G.J. Gardner Sacramento team has established working relationships with local jurisdictions and understands the specific requirements needed to get new home and ADU projects approved efficiently.

Home Designs and Customization Options

G.J. Gardner Homes Sacramento offers a selection of over 100 existing home designs that can be customized to suit individual needs and lifestyles. Clients who prefer a fully bespoke approach can also work with the team to design a home from the ground up. This flexibility applies to ADU projects as well, where design requirements often differ significantly from standard residential builds.

Whether someone is looking for a detached ADU builder, a granny flat builder, or a Casita addition to an existing property, the team can work within the constraints of the lot and local regulations to deliver a suitable outcome.

Throughout the building process, clients work with a New Home Consultant and Site Supervisor, providing a clear point of contact and consistent communication from start to finish.

"We are happy with the overall finished product. GJ Gardner helped us finance and build a 400SQFT ADU in our yard. There were challenges and quite a few delays along the way, which should not be a surprise to anyone when developing. Some communications with management team could have been handled better; but we are impressed by their rockstar foreman Joe, and happy with the product quality once everything has been completed."
