ADU Construction in Pasadena, CA
ADU construction in Pasadena — garage conversions, detached units, and additions designed for your lot.
Building ADUs in Pasadena
With California’s ADU laws and Pasadena’s ongoing housing demand, accessory dwelling units have become one of the smartest ways to add space and value to a property — for rental income, a home office, or housing for family. Pasadena’s mix of deep lots and detached garages makes many homes strong candidates.
AJJ Home Builders & Remodeling designs and builds ADUs across Pasadena, from garage conversions to ground-up detached units. We handle the full process — design, permitting, and construction — so you’re not navigating the city’s requirements on your own.
Pasadena ADU options we build
Every lot is different, but the ADUs we build in Pasadena generally fall into a few categories:
- Detached new-construction ADUs built from the ground up
- Garage conversions that turn unused space into a legal dwelling
- Attached ADUs that extend from the existing home
- Junior ADUs (JADUs) created within the current footprint
- Full design and architectural plans tailored to your lot
- Permitting and code compliance handled start to finish
Why work with AJJ on your Pasadena ADU
An ADU is part design project, part construction project, and part permitting puzzle. We manage all three, so you get a realistic budget and timeline up front and a single team accountable for the result.
Pasadena lots and older properties come with site-specific challenges — setbacks, utilities, grading. We plan for them early so the project moves smoothly through the city and onto the build.
