An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) adds a complete, permitted living space on the lot you already own: room for aging parents or grown kids, a home office, or rental income that helps cover the mortgage. TDI® builds ADUs in Roseville and across Placer County, and manages each project from the first site review to the final inspection under one contract. ## ADUs we build in Roseville - **Detached ADUs**, a standalone backyard cottage with its own foundation, kitchen, bathroom and entrance - **Attached ADUs**, a new unit built onto the existing home with its own entrance - **Garage conversions**, turning an attached or detached garage into a full living unit - **Junior ADUs**, up to 500 square feet carved out of existing space inside the home, with an efficiency kitchen and a separate entrance - **Above-garage units**, where the lot and local rules allow it ## Building an ADU in Roseville Roseville is the largest city in Placer County, with older homes near downtown and large planned neighborhoods built from the 1990s onward. Most Roseville lots can fit at least one type of ADU. A detached unit works where the backyard has room, while a garage conversion reuses an existing structure and is often the fastest path to a permitted unit. Newer homes usually have more electrical and plumbing capacity to work with, which can simplify the utility connections for a new unit. We still verify the panel size and the sewer and water connections before design is final. Many Roseville neighborhoods have an HOA. Under California law an HOA cannot prohibit an ADU, but it can apply reasonable standards for things like materials and appearance, so we review your CC&Rs and plan for architectural review alongside the building permit. Sacramento Valley summers are long and hot, and winter rain comes in concentrated storms. We design ADUs to California Title 24 energy standards, with insulation, window placement and a properly sized heating and cooling system so the unit stays comfortable year round. ## How an ADU project works with TDI® 1. **Site and zoning review.** We look at your lot, setbacks, utilities and access before anything is drawn, so the design fits what can be permitted. 2. **Design and drawings.** We coordinate floor plans and construction drawings sized to your goals and budget. 3. **Permits and plan check.** We submit the application to the City of Roseville building division, answer plan check comments and track the permit through approval. 4. **Construction.** Foundation, framing, roofing, plumbing, electrical and HVAC, insulation to Title 24, then drywall, cabinets, fixtures, flooring and finishes. 5. **Final inspection and walkthrough.** We close the permit and walk the finished unit with you, so you have a legal, insurable, rentable space. ## Licensed and accountable - **CSLB licensed general contractor**, License #1041773, Class B General Building - **Native American owned (Cherokee)** and a certified Minority Business Enterprise - **Building in Northern California since 1983** Thinking about an ADU in Roseville?

We offer 24/7 emergency response and typically arrive on-site in Roseville, CA within about 60 minutes of your call — often sooner for active water, fire, or storm damage. Can I build an ADU on my property in Roseville? In most cases, yes. California law allows an ADU on lots with a single-family or multifamily home, and many single-family lots can have both a detached or attached ADU and a junior ADU inside the existing house. Projects in Roseville are permitted through the City of Roseville building division, and local rules still control details like height, setbacks and utility connections, so we start with a site and zoning review before any drawings are made. How big can an ADU be? Under state law, a junior ADU can be up to 500 square feet and is built within the existing home. Attached and detached ADUs are generally allowed up to 1,200 square feet, though local limits and lot conditions can affect the final size. Units of 750 square feet or less avoid most impact fees, which is why many owners design right at or under that size. Is a garage conversion cheaper than a new detached ADU? Usually. A garage conversion reuses the existing foundation, walls and roof, so the work focuses on the floor, insulation, windows, a kitchen, a bathroom and utilities. A detached ADU needs its own foundation, framing, roof and utility runs. The right choice depends on the garage's condition, your parking needs and how much living space you want. How long does an ADU take to build in Roseville? Design and permitting often take two to four months, and California requires local agencies to act on a complete ADU application within 60 days. Construction typically runs two to four months for a garage conversion or junior ADU, and four to eight months for a new detached unit. Is TDI® licensed and insured? Yes. TDI® is a CSLB licensed general contractor (#1041773, Class B General Building), insured for residential and commercial work, and has been building in Northern California since 1983. Will my homeowners insurance cover adu construction in Roseville? Often, yes — most homeowners policies cover sudden and accidental damage, though coverage always depends on your specific policy and the cause of the loss. We work with all major insurance carriers, bill them directly, and document the damage with photos and moisture readings so your Roseville adjuster has everything needed to process the claim. ## ADU Construction response in Roseville Most Roseville calls see a technician on-site within 60 minutes of your call.
