ADU Construction Services by DCCS Construction
DCCS Construction works with homeowners in the City of Boston to navigate the Additional Dwelling Unit (ADU) program. This program allows eligible property owners to create smaller, independent living units within their existing homes, offering an opportunity to generate rental income from previously unused space.
Owners of one, two, or three-family homes in Boston who have an unfinished basement or attic may qualify for the program. DCCS Construction guides homeowners through the process, handling both the architectural and building aspects of converting those spaces into fully independent units.
Types of ADU Conversions Offered
DCCS Construction handles several types of ADU projects, depending on the existing layout and condition of the property:
- Pre-existing Unit Conversion – Converting an extra independent unit into a rentable unit.
- Carve Out Unit – Dividing a first floor into two separate units.
- Basement Conversion – Converting an unfinished basement into an additional dwelling unit.
- Attic Conversion – Converting an attic space into an additional living unit.
Each of these approaches falls under the City of Boston's ADU program framework, and DCCS Construction works as both architects and builders, managing the project from design through construction.
Working Within the Boston ADU Program
The ADU program in Boston has specific eligibility requirements and guidelines. DCCS Construction assists homeowners in understanding those requirements and moving through the program steps. By combining architectural services with hands-on construction, they offer a single point of contact for the entire conversion process.
For Boston homeowners looking to make use of underutilized space — whether a basement, attic, or existing floor plan — DCCS Construction provides the expertise to turn those areas into independent, rentable accessory dwelling units.
