An ADU is built the way a small house is built, in a fixed order. Plan coordination first, with permit support attached to it. Then the structure: foundation, framing, roof, sheathing, windows, exterior finish. Detached units carry all of that on their own; attached units add the work of tying into the existing house. Utility tie-ins bring water, waste and electrical service across so the unit functions independently. Interior finish work then covers insulation, drywall, flooring, the bathroom, the kitchenette, cabinetry and paint. A Glendale ADU is handed over after a final walkthrough at the property, once the punch list written there has been cleared.
A Glendale ADU is not quoted from a description. The onsite visit comes first, free and without obligation, and the site is measured while placement, size and finish level are discussed. A scope of work in detail follows in writing, and the free estimate is priced against it. What happens after the scope is signed is worth knowing too: drawings are produced, the permit submittal is lodged by MyCali Builders, and construction is sequenced behind it. The completed unit carries a warranty of 5 years, and the company has been in business since 2020.

An accessory dwelling unit here lands somewhere inside 91206 or 91208, and Rossmoyne is one of the neighborhood names on this city's map. Whether the unit is attached or detached changes the plan set, the utility tie-ins and the finish schedule, so that question gets settled before any ground is broken.

I recently hired My Cali Builders for a backyard remodel and couldn't be happier.
Danny and his team were professional, punctual, and easy to communicate with.
They really paid attention to the details and brought my vision to life.
The quality of the work exceeded my expectations from start to finish.
Everything was done cleanly and on schedule, which I really appreciated.
Danny made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
The backyard now looks amazing and feels like a completely new space.
I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable contractors.
Was very impressed! Prompt. Highly professional. Thorough. Excellent feedback and service while response completing my job. I absolutely would hire them again and recommend them without any concerns!
I began my Yelp search for a company to perform structural repairs and ultimately chose 5 companies, scheduling each of them for a representative to visit and discuss my needs. I chose My Cali Builders based upon Danny's (owner) review of the work and how he defined the scope of the work. The other representatives vacillated on the scope of the work and attached various caveats. My Cali Builders also gave me the best bid. So I hired them and boy, am I glad I did. Work was performed quickly, efficiently and the finish work was excellent. Every task I initially discussed with Danny was completed. Danny's crew including Francisco and Jaime, were top notch and pleasant. Each day, refuse and trash were removed. Every day, Danny either visited or texted to advise on progress and to insure the work was progressing as discussed and to ask if I was satisfied and happy. I can't convey in words how much I appreciated My Cali Builders. Look no further, they are the best I've ever encountered.
Danny Raz is a man of action; the work was done promptly and even finished ahead of schedule. The workers were polite, respectful, of cleaned up well after the job.

Answers to the most common questions about this service in your area.
Yes. We have completed multiple ADU projects in Glendale. Call (310) 220-0903 to schedule a free onsite visit, or compare public feedback on the customer reviews page.
ADU builds typically run 3 to 6 months from permit approval through final inspection. We map the milestone schedule before field work starts. We give you a written schedule during the estimate so milestone dates are clear before field work starts.
ADU builds require permits and we handle the full submittal, plan check, and inspection sequence. Permit timelines vary by city and we factor them into the schedule from day one. You can also step back to the main Glendale page to compare related local services.
There is no published ADU price for Glendale, and there could not be a useful one. The size of the unit, attached or detached construction, the length of the utility runs and the interior finish package each shift the figure materially. The free onsite visit resolves them into a detailed scope of work, and only then is a price prepared, against that specific written document.
Yes. CA Contractor License #1072368. Fully insured for liability and workers compensation. The public record is on the CSLB lookup.
Work on a Glendale ADU is covered by a warranty of 5 years. The term is fixed and it is stated in the estimate paperwork rather than produced afterwards, so a homeowner sees it before agreeing to anything. It sits alongside the contractor licence, CSLB #1072368, and the insurance the company carries. MyCali Builders has been in business since 2020.
A member of the company visits the Glendale property. The build area is measured, the position of the unit is discussed, and access for deliveries is checked. The conversation covers room count, entry placement and finish level, since those decide the scope. Nothing is billed for the visit. It ends with a detailed scope of work and a remodeling consultation, which is the written basis for the estimate that follows.
