ADU Construction for Studio City Homeowners
Accessory dwelling units are one of the strongest returns available to Studio City property owners. California state law now overrides most local barriers, and lots characterized by mid-century modern and traditional homes on tight hillside lots 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 Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS), 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 Studio City — FAQs
Can I build an ADU on my Studio City property?
Most single-family and multifamily lots in Studio City 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 Studio City?
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 Studio City ADU permit process take?
Plans and plan-check through the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) 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.
