Service Options to Fit Different Needs and Budgets
Vitalize Build offers three distinct pathways for homeowners looking to add an accessory dwelling unit to their property:
- Preapproved ADU Layout — This is their most cost-effective option. It features a universal design with two interior design packages included and offers the fastest turnaround time. The available layout is 499 sq ft with a 1 bed / 1 bath configuration.
- Predesigned Layouts — For those who want to skip the design phase or start with an existing plan and customize it, Vitalize Build offers a library of 50+ predesigned layouts. These range from 238 to 1,200 sq ft and include options from studio units to two-story configurations, giving homeowners a broad range of choices to match their vision.
- Custom Design — Homeowners who prefer to start from scratch can work with Vitalize Build to design an ADU that meets their specific needs and preferences. This option allows for a fully tailored approach to both layout and interior design.
Whether the goal is to create a backyard cottage, a granny flat, a rental unit, or additional living space for family members, Vitalize Build aims to deliver projects on time and within budget.
