Let's walk through what actually happens when you decide to build an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) in Madison, Wisconsin. First, we confirm your property meets Madison's zoning requirements for an ADU. This involves checking lot size, setbacks, and existing structures. Next, a design specialist works with you to plan the layout, size, and finishes for your new unit. They ensure the design complements your existing home and property. Then, plans are submitted to the City of Madison for permit approval. This stage can take time depending on the city's workload. Once permits are issued, construction crews begin site preparation and foundation work. Framing, roofing, and exterior finishes follow. Interior work includes plumbing, electrical, and final touches. Final inspections by the city ensure everything meets code before you can occupy the space. Don't delay your project; call us today for your free estimate.

The materials you choose—from siding to kitchen finishes—also change the math significantly. Whether you’re building a detached unit or converting an existing garage shifts the permit requirements and structural work needed. We provide exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
