I needed a heavy-duty home gym in Pasadena. I was highly concerned about the existing foundation supporting heavy Olympic weights. They reinforced the concrete slab and installed premium impact flooring much faster than I originally anticipated. Booking the initial consultation online took five minutes, and the final invoice matched the upfront estimate perfectly.
Working from my dining table was destroying my back. The crew transformed my messy Silver Lake garage into a quiet home office in just three weeks. There were absolutely no hidden fees, just straightforward pricing and workers who showed up at 8 AM sharp every single day.
Getting the plumbing trenched for our North Hollywood garage bathroom was painless. The flat-rate pricing offered upfront gave me absolute peace of mind.
Converting our Encino garage into a studio was incredibly lucrative. The team managed the build perfectly. They passed every local city inspection on the very first try. The transparent payment schedule kept my cash flow entirely manageable while getting the property ready for renters.
Their permitting team got my Burbank garage plans approved by the city in record time without me having to deal with a single piece of red tape.
It turned our underused backyard area into a cozy ADU. The team did outstanding work on the foundation, framing, and interiors. It looks like it’s always been there and we’re already enjoying the extra living space.

We built a small ADU in the backyard for my aging parents and it turned out fantastic
Van Nuys homeowners near landmarks such as Van Nuys Airport and the Van Nuys Civic Center often face challenges when trying to expand living space, accommodate extended family, or add a rental unit. Building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) above your garage is a smart solution, but without professional planning, projects can encounter delays, zoning issues, or inefficient layouts.
At A1 ADU Contractor, we specialize in creating custom above-garage ADUs in Van Nuys. Each design is tailored to your property, combining functionality, aesthetics, and full compliance with local building codes.
Constructing an above-garage ADU is more than just adding space — it’s about increasing comfort, optimizing your property, and boosting its value.
Our Van Nuys services include:
Problem: Many garages are small or irregularly shaped, making ADU construction tricky. Solution: We develop creative layouts, lofted spaces, and multifunctional designs to make every square foot usable.
Problem: Local codes can restrict height, setbacks, or occupancy. Solution: Our team ensures your above-garage ADU meets all Van Nuys ordinances and HOA guidelines.
Problem: Extending plumbing, electrical, and HVAC to a second-story unit can be complicated. Solution: Our plans include seamless utility connections to prevent costly adjustments.
Problem: A new ADU can look disconnected from the existing home. Solution: We design units that complement the style, color palette, and structure of your property.
Our Van Nuys offerings cover every step of the ADU process:
