Common Questions
How long does permitting take in LA?
Standard ADU permits take 3–6 months. Pre-approved plans through the LADBS standard plan program can reduce this to 4–8 weeks.
Do I need an architect?
Yes — permitted ADUs require licensed architectural drawings. Our in-house team handles this as part of the full project.
What's included in the permit fee?
City fees vary by ADU size and type. We provide a full fee estimate during your free property review.
