"I recently had the pleasure of working with KN Remodeling on adding an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) to my property, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The team at KN Remodeling was professional, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable throughout the entire process. The quality of their ADU products exceeded my expectations, and the final result was exactly what I envisioned. I highly recommend KN Remodeling for anyone looking to add an ADU to their property. Thank you for a job well done!" Ching BaltazarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have done two major home renovations with Nathan and his team over the last few years. They are great to work with: very professional and responsive, so when we wanted to remodel our kitchen, we trusted them with the project. They completed the work quicker than the estimated time frame and within budget. We could not be happier with the outcome and we're already planning future projects with his team. We strongly recommend KN Remodeling for any home projects you may have! Sally ChabertTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. KN Remodeling did a fantastic job on a complete remodel of our kitchen-from planning to completion, the job was seamless, on time and budget, and we are delighted with the results. Nathan had very helpful suggestions and an aesthetic eye for detail. His crew was professional, reliable, meticulous in their work, and a pleasure to have around. The entire team was courteous and very respectful of our living area and left our space tidy at the end of each work day. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again or to recommend them to family and friends. We feel lucky to have found them. Jose PrendesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We took A LOT of quotes on our kitchen refresh, and Nathan was the only one who wasn't pushy or threw out high-pressure sales pitches. He listened to our concerns and approached them realistically and offered options that were doable, and not empty promises. His work teams were very professional, worked diligently, and were never rude. They took as much care of our house as we would. Even when we pointed out certain imperfections and mistakes they were quick to fix and patch up. Our kitchen was done way sooner than we had anticipated, so that's always a plus. One of the things I really liked about Nathan was that he was always a phone call away and he was very attentive to our concerns. He never dismissed us or ignored us. He cared and he never let us down. We've had experiences with other companies that have been less than favorable, and what we disliked the most was being ignored when we noticed imperfections in their work. Even today, as the kitchen is finished and Nathan came over to do final checks, we noticed our drawer hardware was rusty (it was a refresh and not a remodel), and Nathan offered to send someone over to install new ones free of charge. I would wholeheartedly recommend this company, and especially Nathan, who I found to be an honorable contractor. Ralph DavisTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nathan's team did two projects for us: new roof and finishing off our garage with drywall, paint and new cabinets. We couldn't be more pleased. Completely professional crew, friendly, attentive and project was completed on time. Working with Nathan was a pleasure and we would use KN again for sure. Highly recommend. HSZ33Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Nathan and his team. They are Professionals who get the job done right the first time. Nathan truly cares and is very passionate about high-quality work. Thank you for a job well done. We definitely look forward to working with you again Banafsheh EsmaeiliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. professional team, they get the job done fast, on time, with amazing results. Mr Nathan saved our unit with his professional experience and great knowledge we highly recommend him.

- Properties within a half mile of a G Line (Orange Line) station may be exempt from ADU parking requirements
- Older homes may need an electrical service upgrade verified during plan check before a new ADU sub-panel can be added

Canoga Park's West Valley setting brings a few practical factors worth planning around:
- Lot Size: many Canoga Park lots are larger and level, giving more flexibility for detached ADU placement than hillside or coastal neighborhoods
- Electrical Capacity: older homes in the area often need a panel or sub-panel upgrade to support a new unit
- Transit Proximity: lots near the G Line (Orange Line) corridor may qualify for reduced ADU parking requirements
- Industrial-Adjacent Streets: some parcels near Sherman Way and Winnetka Avenue require extra attention to setbacks near mixed commercial zoning
