Testimonials

SnapADU did an awesome job building a 750 sqft ADU. The level of service and quality of work surpassed all my expectations. I’m so glad there are still companies who are focused on customer satisfaction. Thank you, to all from Snap who were involved in the building of the ADU for such a great experience!!!!

SnapADU's field crew were so helpful, especially in getting our project wrapped up. Sean, Dave O. & Dave P. were attentive to our concerns and ensured our expectations were met. We are happy we worked with SnapADU and would recommend their services to anyone looking to build an ADU.
Vince R. | 1BR ADU | Chula Vista CA

Your crew is amazing! I’m sure you appreciate them as much as I do. Thank you for doing what you can to get this kitchen done during all this (COVID-19) chaos. I’ll definitely be singing your company’s praises to everyone I know and am excited to start our ADU!
Liz R. | ADU & Kitchen Remodel | Vista CA

I think you guys are great. You're just kind of a dream come true, really. When we were talking about doing this, it's really daunting thinking about trying to tie all these things together when you don't even know where to begin. So it's great that you guys put it all out there so clearly. You're very thorough. And I think you're really forthcoming about the reality of the undertaking. That's good, cause I want the full story.
Mary R. | ADU | National City CA

I want to thank you for all this extra effort during the material selections process. I feel like you all are going above and beyond and I’m so happy I chose SnapADU. Today they poured the basement floor and it looks amazing.
Zack R. | ADU | Oceanside CA

I perform Title 24 energy code compliance for the State of CA and work with large number of contractors in Southern CA. Snap ADU has been a pleasure to work with and their company noticeably stands out amongst the competition. They perform high quality work and are excellent with communication.
Joel K. | Code Compliance | San Diego CA

SnapADU remodeled my home a few years ago. Now during COVID, I have them back building an ADU in my back yard. I'm always impressed with their reliability and transparency. From Day 1, Mike was upfront with me about what to expect with the all-in costs and consistently follows through as promised.
Margaret P. | ADU & Remodel | Oceanside CA

Why We Love Building Granny Flats

We get to help people and families come together... to live closer and be part of each others' lives daily, to bring aging parents closer to grandkids, to give handicapped dependents more independence, or to give young adults a chance to raise their kids in a community they might not normally be able to afford.

We also get to help people bring in rental income... money that helps them pay their mortgage, travel more, work less, or even retire sooner. We offer them flexibility, since ADUs are versatile and meet the demands of evolving lifestyles.

We plan and design with each client to make the best lifestyle choice for their family. What size ADU? Where on their property should it go? Which floor plan should they choose? How much will it cost? Does it make sense? We have respect for our clients and want to help them as they are considering options for their unique situation.
