ADU Construction Services by The Remodel Group in Portland
The Remodel Group is a Portland-based design-build firm that specializes in Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) construction. As an experienced ADU contractor and builder, they work with homeowners who are looking to add functional living space to their properties — whether for rental income, housing family members, or accommodating guests.
Their team approaches each project with an understanding that building an accessory dwelling unit is a meaningful investment. The motivations behind ADU projects vary widely, and The Remodel Group tailors their services to fit the specific goals and circumstances of each client.
What They Offer as an ADU Builder
The Remodel Group handles ADU projects from initial design through to completed construction. Their design-build model means that design and construction services are managed under one roof, which can help reduce overall costs — including potentially cutting traditional design fees significantly. This integrated approach is intended to keep projects on schedule and within budget.
As an Earth Advantage certified ADU specialist, The Remodel Group incorporates sustainable building practices into their work. Their focus is on creating accessory dwelling units that are both practical for current use and adaptable for future needs. Whether a client is looking for a detached ADU, a backyard cottage, a granny flat, or an in-law suite, the team brings relevant experience to the table.
- Detached ADU construction
- Backyard cottage and granny flat building
- In-law suite and Casita development
- Garage conversion contracting
- JADU (Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit) projects
Their phased design-build process is structured to minimize unexpected costs and reduce the number of changes that arise mid-project. Transparent communication and upfront planning are central to how they operate, with the goal of making the construction process more predictable for homeowners.
Whole House Remodeling in Portland
Beyond ADU work, The Remodel Group also provides whole house remodeling services for Portland homeowners. Their approach is built around the idea that significant improvements to an existing home can be a practical alternative to relocating — particularly for those who value their neighborhood but feel their current layout no longer meets their needs.
Whole house remodels handled by The Remodel Group can include structural changes, layout reconfiguration, and aesthetic updates. Examples of the types of transformations they undertake include combining multiple smaller rooms into a single open living area, redesigning traffic flow throughout the home, or creating dedicated spaces for specific uses.
Projects of this scale are typically completed within a 2 to 4 month timeframe, depending on scope. The Remodel Group uses a phased approach where appropriate, which is intended to reduce disruption to the homeowner's daily routine during construction.
Budget and Planning
For both ADU and whole house remodel projects, The Remodel Group places emphasis on aligning the project scope with the client's budget from the beginning. Their design-build method is structured to limit budget overruns and reduce the likelihood of costly surprises during construction. By combining design and build services, they aim to streamline decision-making and keep the overall process more cost-effective compared to working with separate design and construction teams.
The Remodel Group positions itself as a full-service ADU contractor and remodeling firm in the Portland area, offering homeowners a single point of contact throughout the entire project lifecycle — from concept and permitting through to final construction.
