ADU & Garage Conversion Experts

As housing demands rise across the East Bay, homeowners are turning to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and garage conversions as smart, cost-effective ways to increase livable space, generate rental income, and add long-term property value. At Takoda Construction, we specialize in custom ADU design, garage conversions, and complete remodeling services that transform underused space into stylish, fully functional living areas.


Based in the East Bay, our licensed and insured construction team serves Orinda, Oakland, Hayward, Berkeley, San Leandro, Alameda, Walnut Creek, and surrounding cities with expertly planned and professionally built ADUs that meet all California building codes, energy standards, and local zoning laws.

 What Is an ADU and Why Build One?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit is a secondary residential structure built on the same lot as a single-family home. Also known as a granny flat, in-law unit, backyard cottage, or garage conversion, ADUs are ideal for:

  • Creating private space for extended family or aging parents
  • Generating passive rental income (long-term or Airbnb)
  • Providing a home office, art studio, or guesthouse
  • Expanding property value without buying a new home

Takoda Construction has the experience, design expertise, and permitting knowledge to guide your project from concept to completion—stress-free and on budget.
