Kindred Tiny Homes — Expert ADU Builders in Colorado

Kindred Tiny Homes is a dedicated ADU builder serving Colorado homeowners who want to add real, lasting value to their properties. As a full-service accessory dwelling unit builder, Kindred Tiny Homes manages every phase of the process — from initial design and permitting through to final construction — so homeowners can stay informed and stress-free throughout the entire journey.

Inspired by what the industry consistently gets wrong, Kindred Tiny Homes was founded on a commitment to transparency, quality craftsmanship, and putting families first. Before launching Kindred, the founding team worked within the national ADU building space and witnessed firsthand the problems that plague the industry: hidden fees, poor communication, and rushed builds that left homeowners disappointed. Kindred Tiny Homes was built specifically to be the answer to those shortcomings.

Versatile ADU Solutions Tailored to Your Property

As a trusted backyard cottage builder and detached ADU builder, Kindred Tiny Homes offers seven thoughtfully designed floor plan models to suit a wide range of Colorado backyards and homeowner needs. Every ADU they build is custom stick-built, meaning it is constructed on-site and tailored specifically to the property — not modular or on wheels. This approach ensures higher quality, greater longevity, and a meaningful increase in property value.

Kindred Tiny Homes chose stick-built construction deliberately. Modular or wheeled units are not classified as permanent dwellings, which limits the value they add to a property. Stick-built ADUs, on the other hand, integrate cohesively with the existing home and are recognized as true additions to the property's assessed value.

Their ADU models are available in studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom configurations, with pricing structured as follows:

1. Studios: $98,000 – $158,000
2. 1-Bedroom: $148,000 – $220,000
3. 2-Bedroom: $195,000 – $287,000

Homeowners can also personalize their build by selecting from exterior styling options including lap siding, board and batten, or stucco, as well as flat or traditional roof styles and interior packages ranging from good to best.

The average total timeline for a Kindred build is approximately 12 months, broken down into a 2–3 month design phase, 3–4 months for permitting, and 4–6 months for construction through to a fully turn-key handover — appliances included.

Why Homeowners Choose Kindred as Their ADU Contractor

There are several compelling reasons homeowners across Colorado turn to Kindred Tiny Homes as their preferred ADU contractor:

1. Complete Project Management — From design through final build, their team handles everything so homeowners never have to navigate the process alone.
2. Built to Last — Kindred uses quality materials and proven construction methods to ensure every ADU stands strong over time.
3. Fair, Transparent Pricing — Upfront pricing from day one means no hidden costs and no surprises.
4. Customized for Each Homeowner — Whether the goal is housing aging parents, providing adult children with a real housing option, or generating passive rental income, Kindred tailors every build to the homeowner's specific needs.

Thanks to new Colorado legislation, no city, county, or HOA is permitted to deny ADU construction, making now an ideal time for homeowners to explore adding an accessory dwelling unit to their property. Kindred Tiny Homes also partners with CMG, one of the largest lending networks in the country, to help clients access financing options including cash-out refinancing, HELOCs, and construction loans — making the path to building more accessible than ever.

On average, a Kindred-built ADU can generate $2,000–$3,000 per month in rental income and increase overall property value by 20–40%. Whether the goal is a granny flat for aging parents, an in-law suite, or a long-term rental, Kindred Tiny Homes delivers a solution built with care, precision, and genuine commitment to every family they serve.
