Built For Here

Made For West Hollywood Properties

West Hollywood ADU garage conversion projects face conditions a suburban ADU never will. Consequently, a unit that looks standard on paper needs real adaptation for a WeHo lot, building and HOA before permits are even possible.

Small Lots, Big DemandWeHo lots are compact, but renter demand is strong. A well placed junior ADU or garage conversion can outperform a larger unit in a cheaper market.
Parking Relief Near TransitState law often waives replacement parking for garage conversions near transit corridors, and much of WeHo qualifies. We confirm what your address is entitled to.
Older Panels And PlumbingPre 1980s WeHo homes often need a panel upgrade or sewer work before an ADU can be metered. We assess utilities before design so nothing surprises you later.
Condo And HOA RulesApprovals, design review, work hour windows, insurance certificates and protected common elements all apply. We navigate those rules every week because WeHo buildings are our regular work.
Duplex And Multi Unit ContextMany WeHo properties are duplexes or small multi unit buildings. State ADU rules interact with existing units in specific ways, and we verify what your parcel legally allows.
Dense Street LogisticsParking permits, equipment staging, trenching access and delivery windows need planning on WeHo streets. We handle the logistics so your project keeps moving.

Building rules, permit requirements and HOA processes vary by property and are updated periodically. We confirm the current requirements for your specific building during your free consultation.

Budget & Timeline

What An ADU Costs In West Hollywood

Most builders will not discuss numbers until they have walked your property. We think that wastes your time. Below are the ranges we typically see for West Hollywood ADU garage conversion projects, with realistic timelines from design through final inspection.

ADU Type Typical Investment Typical Timeline What Drives The Range
Junior ADU $60,000 to $120,000 3 to 5 months Built within the existing home, so cost follows kitchen and entry scope
Garage Conversion $90,000 to $180,000 3 to 6 months Slab condition, plumbing runs, panel upgrade and insulation requirements
Attached ADU $150,000 to $280,000 5 to 9 months Square footage, roof tie in, structural work and separate utility service
Detached ADU, 400 to 800 sq ft $200,000 to $320,000 6 to 10 months Foundation, utility trenching distance, site access and finish level
Detached ADU, 800 to 1,200 sq ft $300,000 to $450,000+ 8 to 12 months Size, grading on sloped lots, custom design and appliance package
Design & Permitting Only $12,000 to $25,000 2 to 5 months Architectural plans, Title 24, structural calculations and city fees

These ranges reflect typical West Hollywood lots. They are a planning guide, not a quote, and they exclude city impact fees, which vary. After we review your parcel, you receive a written, itemized price with no hidden allowances.

What Fails First

Feasibility And Utilities, Done Properly

The worst outcome in an ADU project is spending real money on design, then discovering the unit will not fit, the panel cannot carry it or the city will not approve the placement. None of that shows up in year one of planning, and good West Hollywood ADU garage conversion work checks feasibility honestly before promising the unit.

So we review the property first. Lot coverage and setbacks get measured against state ADU rules and city requirements. Panel capacity, sewer, water and gas routing all get assessed before design. Then permits, inspections and utility coordination get managed by one team. Doing it in that order is why our units pass inspection the first time and rent without headaches for years.

  • Lot coverage and setbacks measured against what your zoning and the state ADU rules permit.
  • Electrical panel capacity assessed, since older WeHo homes often need a service upgrade first.
  • Sewer, water and gas routing mapped, because trenching distance is a major cost driver on tight lots.
  • California ADU law applied to your parcel, including parking relief near transit corridors.
  • HOA design review managed with approvals, work hour rules and insurance certificates handled for you.

Why Us

Why West Hollywood Homeowners Choose Maya

Plenty of companies will frame walls. Here is what makes West Hollywood ADU garage conversion work from a licensed, women led design build studio different from hiring a handyman with a nail gun.

01

Feasibility Comes First

We check your lot, utilities and HOA before you spend on design. That is the part nobody sees, which is exactly why it is the part worth getting right.

02

We Are Licensed To Build

Plumbing, electrical and structural changes need permits and inspections. As a licensed general contractor, we handle that rather than working around it.

03

Condo And HOA Fluency

Design review, approval steps, work hour rules and insurance certificates are second nature to us because WeHo buildings are our regular work.

04

Transparent Pricing And Timelines

Detailed scopes and realistic schedules before demolition day. As a result, you always know where the project stands and what comes next.

05

Permit And Code Expertise

We handle the paperwork, inspections and city requirements for you, including West Hollywood permit and code processes.

06

Craftsmanship That Lasts

Vetted trades, premium materials and a punch list obsession on every project. In addition, license #1034501 with full insurance on every job.

Before You Start

Questions Worth Answering First

ADUs go wrong when they are designed around photos rather than around what your property can actually support. These six questions keep your West Hollywood ADU garage conversion honest. We work through all of them with you at no cost.

Garage conversion or detached?

Converting an existing garage is faster and cheaper. A detached unit gives more privacy and rental appeal. Your lot, budget and goals decide, and we walk you through the trade offs.

What about parking?

State law often waives replacement parking for garage conversions near transit, and much of WeHo qualifies. We confirm exactly what your address is entitled to before design begins.

Junior or full ADU?

A junior ADU lives inside your existing walls and costs far less. A full ADU adds a kitchen and more independence. We compare both against your goals and your lot.

Can your panel carry it?

An ADU usually needs its own meter or a panel upgrade, and older WeHo homes often need a service upgrade first. We assess capacity before design, not after.

Rent or family?

A rental unit gets durable finishes and a separate meter. A family unit gets a warmer layout. The answer changes the design, so we settle it before the first drawing.

What is your real number?

Tell us the budget you actually have, not the one you think we want to hear. Then we phase it sensibly if needed, instead of overreaching and stopping halfway.
