The ADU Builder Granada Hills Families Trust
Granada Hills is a neighborhood of families, and many of the ADUs we build here are for parents, grandparents or adult children who want their own space close by. KN Remodeling is a licensed, insured, family-owned design-build team, and the ADU builder Granada Hills homeowners call for one crew from the first sketch to the final walkthrough.
Wide, family-friendly lots throughout the neighborhood leave excellent room for a detached backyard cottage, while attached ADUs and garage conversions work well for keeping family under one roofline. We know the City of Los Angeles zoning rules and help you add a private home that raises your property value.

What Your ADU Builder Granada Hills Team Checks First
From the flat streets near Chatsworth Street to the hillside homes toward the San Gabriel foothills, every lot is a little different:
- Wide family lots: Many lots have room for a detached ADU of up to 1,200 square feet without crowding the yard.
- Historic districts: Homes in Balboa Highlands, a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone known for its Eichler homes, can need design review for ADUs visible from the street.
- Hillside and fire zones: Lots near the foothills may fall in high fire hazard zones that call for ember-resistant vents and fire-rated roofing.
- Aging in place: Step-free entries, grab-bar blocking and wider halls make an ADU work for parents now and later.
- Utilities: We decide early whether to share the main electrical panel or add a separate LADWP meter.

Garage conversions and JADUs usually run about $90,000 to $150,000. Detached ADUs typically range from about $180,000 to $350,000 or more, depending on size, site work and finishes.
Can you design an ADU for my aging parents?
Yes. We often build single-level ADUs with step-free entries, wider doors, curbless showers and blocking for grab bars.
I live in Balboa Highlands. Can I still build an ADU?
Usually, yes. Because it is a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone, an ADU visible from the street may need design review. We plan for that from the start.
Who issues ADU permits in Granada Hills?
Granada Hills is part of the City of Los Angeles, so permits go through LADBS. We handle the filings, plan check and inspections for you.
How long does an ADU take to build?
Design and permits usually take two to four months, and historic review can add time. Construction typically takes three to five months for a detached ADU.
Can I rent out my Granada Hills ADU?
Yes. Long-term rentals of 30 days or more are allowed. Short-term rentals are generally not allowed for ADUs in Los Angeles.
