When it comes to ADU Construction Bay Area, our team brings unparalleled expertise and attention to detail.
At Inspired Builders, we specialize in crafting high-quality Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) that maximize your property’s potential and elevate your lifestyle. ADUs are versatile spaces that can serve as guest houses, rental units, home offices, or extended living areas for family members. With California’s ADU-friendly regulations, now is the perfect time to upgrade your property’s value while creating additional, functional space.
Our experienced team takes a comprehensive approach to ADU construction, handling every step from initial design to final completion. We make sure your project complies with local Bay Area regulations and California’s Title 24 energy standards. Whether you are considering a detached unit, a garage conversion, or a modern attached ADU, we customize our designs to match your needs and aesthetic preferences.
With Inspired Builders, you will enjoy a streamlined process, expert craftsmanship, and an ADU that is both stylish and built to last.
Yes, Inspired Builders will handle all necessary permits for your ADU project. In California, ADU construction typically requires zoning clearance, building permits, and adherence to local city regulations. We ensure your project complies with the latest California state laws, such as SB 9 and AB 68, to streamline approvals.
California state law allows homeowners to build ADUs on most residential properties, but size and placement depend on your property’s lot size and zoning. For example, detached ADUs are typically limited to 1,200 square feet, while junior ADUs (JADUs) max out at 500 square feet. Our team conducts a feasibility analysis to determine the best ADU size and type for your property.
California’s Title 24 Building Energy Efficiency Standards require ADUs to meet specific energy-saving measures, including insulation, efficient HVAC systems, and solar readiness. At Inspired Builders, we design and build ADUs to meet or exceed these requirements.
The timeline for an ADU project is determined by factors such as design complexity, permit processes, and construction scope. On average:
Inspired Builders will provide a detailed project timeline and maintain open communication throughout the process.

Inspired Builders did a really good job remodeling my bathroom, and I’m thrilled with how it turned out. Project managers Barak and Joseph were amazing to work with—they made the whole experience super easy and stress-free. The bathroom looks modern and beautiful, with high-quality finishes like marble tiles and sleek fixtures. Barak and Joseph handled everything with professionalism and kept me updated throughout the process. The attention to detail was impressive, and the final result is exactly what I wanted. I’d definitely recommend Inspired Builders to anyone needing a reliable and skilled remodeling team! Bryan Matos2025-03-17Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had the pleasure of working with Inspired Builders for a 400 sqft addition and a complete remodel of our home, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work. Barak, the project managers, were fantastic throughout the entire process. They were always available to answer any questions I had, ensuring I was informed every step of the way. What really stood out to me was that they finished the project a month ahead of schedule, which was a huge bonus. Additionally, we moved into the house two months before the work was completed to save on rent and they showing their commitment to keeping the project on budget. Barak, went above and beyond to help us with any concerns, and the team did their best to keep everything clean and organized, which I truly appreciated. I’ll admit, I was initially afraid to start the project because of some horrible stories I had heard about another construction company. But Inspired Builders completely turned that around, and I’m so glad I trusted them. Most importantly, they showed great respect for my family, including my kids, which made a huge difference. I am incredibly grateful for the quality of their work and the way they treated us throughout the entire project. I highly recommend Inspired Builders! Kelly “K.L.” McNabb2025-03-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Adam for a garage renovation, and we were super happy with the result. Adam was super easy to communicate with, very flexible, and impressively fast. I think it was ~3 weeks from our first conversation to a completed garage renovation. I definitely recommend working with these guys! John S2025-02-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was very impressed by the professionalism of Eden the project manager. He is very proactive in his approach to make sure our bathroom remodel was completed to our satisfaction. The team that completed the job was very friendly and made sure they left the house clean before leaving for the day. We are very happy with the job and look forward to working with Inspired Builders and Eden on future projects. Zubin Vandrevala2025-02-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We found Inspired Builders via a Yelp search and they have exceeded expectations. We used them to remodel our kids bathroom -- reconfiguring it while removing tub and closet. Adam, Noa, Walter and the crew were transparent in their communication (WhatsApp group definitely helped :)), efficient (completed the job in under 4 weeks from start of demolition) and a pleasure to work with. They were quick to jump in and fix things when things didn't go as planned. I particularly appreciated this and it showed that they took pride in their work. I would highly recommend them and plan to use them for future projects. Sumit Saraogi2025-01-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David / Inspired Builder finished our remodel last year. This was an addition of 500 sq ft with one bed and bath, and an entire house remodel. It turned out to be a big project. Inspired builder helped us through the entire journey: design - permit- parts/ finishing - construction, etc. We had good fun. Inception to permit approval took 6 months; and permit to house move-in took six months—incredible commitment and quality. I loved the transparency of the team. One thing I really liked about the team was they provided some ideas that did not cost us money or were almost free during the project with some alterations; for example, for one of the rooms, we got a high ceiling, which was not in the plan. Turned out to be pretty cool. Aviram Levi2025-01-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a first-time homeowner, I was definitely nervous going into this project. My house needed a lot of work, and I had no idea what to expect, especially with the stories you hear about contractors taking forever or doing sloppy work. But from the moment I met David, all my worries melted away- so i decided to hire David and Inspired Builders to Remodel my kitchen and bathroom. Inspired Builders team was professional, friendly, and genuinely cared about making sure everything was done right. From the design phase- Nicole took the time to listen to my ideas and answered all my questions. David and the crew helped guide me through the whole process. Even when I wasn’t sure about something, such as the type of countertop or what type of flooring i should go with, they gave me clear options which made me feel more confident about my choices. What really impressed me was how organized they were. The timeline was spot on, and the work was absolutely fabulous. Of course sometime they had last minute updates that affected the schedule, but David always informed me at least 24hr in advance so i could plan my day around. The finished product turned out way better than I imagined. The quality of the work is top-notch. I couldn’t be happier with how everything came together. They made what could’ve been a stressful process feel easy, and the result speaks for itself. My house feels brand new, and it’s exactly what I was hoping for! Would 100% work with them again for any future projects! Demian Oliveira2025-01-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great experience with David and the Inspired team for a 400sqft home addition that included adding a bedroom and bath and relocating a bathroom. The project was finished on time, and David was incredibly accommodating and worked closely with us to make sure everything met our needs. Having the architect and designer under the same company was a big help—they made changes quickly and explained the costs, which made it so much easier to make decisions and stay on budget. The work turned out great, and we’re really happy with the results. Highly recommend! Emily Phan2025-01-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Inspired Builders exceeded our expectations. They remodeled our entire house—kitchen, 3.5 bathrooms, hallways, wet bar, laundry room and flooring through the house. They understood our vision and thanks to them we now live in our dream house. Barak oversaw the entire project and was great at responding to all of our questions. We also lived with our three children during the entire project and everyone on the team was always very thoughtful and respectful when it came to giving us our space and privacy. And of course the cherry on top was that they were reasonably priced and help us to stay (for the most part) on budget. Dakota Briggs2025-01-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. David did an outstanding job on a complex electrical project. For sure, we will hire David and Inspired Builders for any future work
EXCELLENT Based on 54 reviews Jinyong L.2025-03-31Verified Inspired builders team realized our dream! After reviewing three different contractors, we decided to work with Inspired Builders because they understood what we wanted and how to make it happen within a reasonable budget (Not the most expensive, but not the cheapest). Eden oversaw the project and he was very responsive and kind. He never said "no" and always tried to bring solutions. Team members, including Efrain and Luis, were very kind and professional. Despite several challenges, they found solutions and brought our vision to reality. Again, appreciate you guys!! Tina O.2025-03-20Verified Our entire experience with the Inspired Builders team exceeded our expectations. We had our primary bathroom remodeled, and Eden, the project manager, was with us every step of the way. His communication, recommendations, and attention to detail were outstanding. Our on-site team, lead by Gelvin, was a dream team. Gelvin began each day by reviewing the day's activities, and introducing the on-site team. He set and met our daily expectations. He also impressed us with the way he taught the lesser experienced team members respectfully with precise instructions and support. At day's end, we were shown the progress and asked if we had any questions (which were answered enthusiastically and knowledgeably). The daily cleanup was so thorough, that we were comfortable living in our home during construction. The entire crew was friendly, highly skilled, and enthusiastic. It was obvious that each person was happy to be here, and shared their pride in working for Inspired Builders. Eden and Gelvin were in constant communication, and Eden checked-in with us regularly, and he made frequent visits. The outcome is more beautiful than we imagined. Eden delivered our gorgeous bathroom in the amount of time he quoted, and the project remained within the quoted budget. We highly recommend Inspired Builders for your home projects! Parneet D.2025-03-16Verified We found Inspired Builders from a neighbor. David was our Project Manager and he was very helpful and patient in identifying a solution that worked for us. He was open and flexible throughout the entire process, talking us through the various details and pre-reqs. The team of workers were also detail oriented, kind and respectful. Overall, Inspired Builders did a great job! John S.2025-02-14Verified Our project manager Eden was very honest and up front from the first time we spoke during our initial meeting to request the estimate. We felt very confident after discussing the project with Eden and were able to quickly make a decision to move forward. The workmanship and the professionalism of the team were outstanding. I look forward to working with them again on future projects. Zubin V.2025-02-08Verified We found Inspired Builders via a Yelp search and they have exceeded expectations.

Knowledgeable understanding We'll explain Under stood his company s motive Romes C.2024-09-28Verified We were very happy with the team at I soured builders. David, Adam, Jose and all the other workers they pulled in for our bathroom remodel and other projects were spectacular. They were always on time, worked diligently, pulled in the best suppliers and service providers...very responsive. We ran into various supply and design challenges as we worked through the project, but always managed to solve problems on the spot without incurring added costs. Their team creatively solved problems and challenges, and put in the time to get the job done right and beautifully. The foreman was particularly conscientious about his work and his team was pleasant, always cleaning up at the end of the day and getting along well with our family and pets. Gary C.2024-09-27Verified We just finished a big project with Inspired Builders and I could not be happier with the results. We decided to have one of our bathrooms completely remodeled and the other two upgraded - new tile and toilet in one, new vanity and lighted mirror medicine cabinet in the other two. While this was all happening we also engaged IB to do a complete re-piping of our plumbing, replacing the old galvanized pipes for copper. Everything came out so good! The whole project team was fantastic, but big thanks go to our project manager, Adam. He was always available, either onsite or by phone, and he kept us informed of everything they were doing and what they needed from us to be successful. They did all of that and were still very cost-effective. They are definitely my go-to for any future home remodeling projects.
