Attached ADU
Attached ADU Constructionfor Los Angeles and Orange County
NewGen ADU Builders designs and builds attached accessory dwelling units that share a wall with your existing home while keeping their own entrance, kitchen, and bath. Sharing a wall can lower construction cost and keep the footprint compact on a smaller lot. Every attached ADU is licensed, insured and bonded, and backed by a 1-year workmanship warranty.
01 — What's Included
What's Included in an Attached ADU
An attached ADU is a new unit built onto the side or rear of your existing home, connected by a shared wall but functioning as a separate residence. It suits lots without room for a detached structure, families who want parents or adult children close but independent, and owners who want to add a rental without losing yard.

How Our Attached ADU Process Works
- 01
Short Intake Interview
Text, call, or send the form. We ask about your home, where an addition could go, and what you want the unit to do so we can prepare for the site visit.
- 02
On-Site Visit
We walk the property with you and look at where the unit can connect, how the roofline and exterior will meet, and where utilities run. We talk through layout options that keep both spaces private.
- 03
Design & Written Estimate
We design the addition to match the main home, select finishes, and deliver a written estimate that shows exactly what is included. You approve before work starts.
- 04
Construction
We build the unit and tie it into the existing structure while keeping disruption to your household as low as possible. Timelines fall within our 3 to 6 month range.
- 05
Final Walkthrough & Warranty
We walk the finished unit with you, close out punch-list items, and back the work with a 1-year workmanship warranty.
03 — Why Choose Us
Why Choose Us for anAttached ADU
Two Homes, One Structure
An attached unit has to feel separate even though it shares a wall. We plan the entrance, sound separation, and layout so both households keep their privacy.
Built to Match Your Home
We design the addition so the roofline, siding, and finishes read as part of the original house, not an afterthought. Design-forward is part of how we work.
Honest, Transparent Pricing
Attached ADUs often cost less than detached units because they share a wall and foundation edge. We show you where your project lands within our $150,000 to $200,000 range before you commit.
Licensed, Insured & Bonded
Tying into an existing home carries structural risk. Our licensing, insurance, and bonding protect your property throughout.
1-Year Workmanship Warranty
If anything we built needs attention in the first year, we come back and fix it.

05 — FAQ
Common Questions AboutAttached ADUs
How much does an attached ADU cost?
Our ADU projects run between $150,000 and $200,000. Attached units often fall below a comparable detached unit because they share a wall and use part of the existing structure. Your written estimate will show exactly where your project falls.
Will construction disrupt my household?
Some disruption is unavoidable when we tie into an existing home, but we plan the sequence to keep it as low as possible and tell you what to expect before each phase. Builds run 3 to 6 months.
Can the attached ADU have its own entrance?
Yes. Every attached ADU we build has a separate entrance, kitchen, and bathroom so it works as an independent home for family or a tenant.
Attached or detached: which is better?
Attached units suit smaller lots and often cost less. Detached units offer more privacy and flexibility. We help you decide at the on-site visit based on your lot, budget, and goals.
