FAQ

Frequently asked

  • What is included in ATTACHED ADU in Tukwila?

    Our ATTACHED ADU in Tukwila scope includes design through completion: feasibility, schematic design, construction documents, permit submittal and review management, construction with one self-performed framing crew plus L&I-licensed MEP subcontractors, all required WA inspections, certificate of occupancy, and warranty. One contract, one license number, one warranty — not a coordination headache across five vendors.

  • How is ATTACHED ADU in Tukwila different from a generic remodel?

    ATTACHED ADU in Tukwila carries code, permit, and construction details that a one-off remodeler hasn't repeated enough times to optimize. Examples: IECC R406 envelope path selection, fire separation when units are within 5 ft, side-sewer slope requirements, IRC Appendix AQ when permitted as a tiny house, separate utility metering rules. We do this scope every month — repetition is what makes our first-cycle approval rate and our schedule reliability stand out.

  • What is the typical price range for ATTACHED ADU in Tukwila?

    ATTACHED ADU in Tukwila pricing in 2026 lands in the $295–$465/sqft all-in range depending on size, lot conditions, finish tier, and AHJ. The wide range is real — small lots with difficult access, soils requiring pier-and-beam, or service upgrades push the upper end; flat lots with good access and a catalog plan land at the lower end. Our feasibility report gives you a ±15% number tailored to your specific lot in two weeks.
