ADU Construction for Burbank Homeowners

Accessory dwelling units are one of the strongest returns available to Burbank property owners. California state law now overrides most local barriers, and lots characterized by compact 1930s–1950s bungalows and Spanish-style homes frequently have room for a detached unit, a garage conversion, or an attached addition.

We handle the full path: feasibility and setback review, architectural plans, structural engineering, submittal to the City of Burbank Community Development Department, utility coordination, construction, and final sign-off. You get one contract and one point of contact instead of juggling designers, engineers and subs.

ADU Construction in Burbank — FAQs

Can I build an ADU on my Burbank property?

Most single-family and multifamily lots in Burbank qualify under current California ADU law. We run a free feasibility check on setbacks, lot coverage and utilities before you spend anything on plans.

What does an ADU cost in Burbank?

Budget roughly $200–$400 per square foot. A 600 sq ft detached ADU commonly totals $150,000–$250,000 including plans, permits and utilities. Garage conversions are usually less.

How long does the Burbank ADU permit process take?

Plans and plan-check through the City of Burbank Community Development Department generally take 3–6 months, then 4–8 months to build. Rules change — we confirm current requirements with the building department on every project.

Will an ADU increase my property value?

A permitted ADU adds both rentable income and appraised square footage. Actual value depends on the local rental market and appraisal method, so we recommend confirming with a local agent or appraiser.
