FAQ

Before you book.

Can I build an ADU in my backyard in Los Angeles?

Usually, yes. California law requires cities to allow ADUs on most residential lots and caps side and rear setbacks at 4 feet for new construction. Lot size, utilities, easements and fire or flood zones decide what fits. The feasibility check answers this for your address.

Do I need extra parking for an ADU?

Often not. State law does not allow cities to require replacement parking when a garage is converted, and no parking can be required for an ADU converted from existing space or near transit. Confirm your address with us.

Can I build now and pay later?

For qualified California homeowners, yes: StructBuilder covers the payments until end of 2028, so the ADU is built before the first payment is due. Eligibility depends on the project and the property equity profile, and is checked during the free call.

How long does the process take?

It is split in stages: feasibility, design, permits, construction and inspection. [Insert real durations from StructBuilder projects.]
