Frequently asked in Bakersfield

What's involved in building an accessory dwelling unit in Bakersfield?

Building an ADU in Bakersfield involves several concrete steps. First, licensed pros assess your property to determine feasibility and design options.

What exactly is an ADU unit?

An ADU unit is a secondary housing unit on a single-family residential lot. It's a separate living space from the primary home. Think of it as a small, independent dwelling. This could be a detached backyard cottage or an attached in-law suite. The key is that it has its own kitchen, bathroom, and living area. We can help you explore ADU options.

How does the ADU building process work?

The ADU building process starts with a consultation to understand your goals for the unit. Licensed professionals then evaluate your property's potential and constraints.
