Prefab ADUs offer a cost-effective and time-efficient solution for homeowners

WHAT IS A PREFAB ADU?

Prefab Accessory Dwelling Units

Prefab ADUs are self-contained living spaces that are built off-site and shipped to the property where they will be installed. These ADUs are customizable and can be designed to fit different needs and budgets. They are becoming increasingly popular as a way to add living space to an existing property without the need for major construction work.

Detached ADUs stand on their own, independent of the main building. Typically, they're smaller structures built in the backyard away from the house or garage. In different areas of the country, people call detached ADUs granny flats, backyard cottages, or laneway houses.

This type of ADUs offers a flexible, cost-effective and sustainable solution for homeowners looking to expand their living space. With their reduced construction time, affordability and energy efficiency, they offer a range of benefits that make them a popular choice for many homeowners.
