ADU West Coast is absolutely superb, and I recommend them highly. After purchasing a property which had a 2 car garage that I wanted to covert to an ADU, and a ton of work needed on the "main house," I was faced with the rather daunting task of hiring a construction company. Like me, you've probably heard construction horror stories throughout your life, and the thought of undergoing a big project can be scary. I actually discovered ADU West Coast online, and was immediately stuck by their videos and public transparency of their current projects. I contacted their own Cameron Meredith, and decided to give them a go. The project was much more involved than you might think. It included going back and forth with the City of Orange over permits, historical "approvals" for materials, and more. With every "bump in the road" and every step of the way, things went as smoothly as you can possibly imagine. I got almost daily updates, and they were as communicative as possible. ...and the job they did? It came out absolutely beautiful. In fact the gentleman that owns the house next door (who is part of the City of Orange's Chamber of Commerce) told me "Thanks so much for helping raise the worth of my house, and the neighborhood too!" That pretty much says it all. If you're looking for peace of mind and excellent craftsmanship, look no further! read more

As a designer, I am very selective about the contractors I work with and recommend. I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Cameron at ADU West Coast, and he is truly a standout in the industry. He isn't just a builder; he is a knowledgeable design-build partner who actually understands the 'why' behind the aesthetic. While many contractors lack the creativity to solve site-specific challenges, Cameron is a natural problem solver with incredibly organized systems. He bridges the gap between vision and execution perfectly. I have referred numerous clients and colleagues to him because I know he respects the design process and delivers top-tier quality. He's my go-to for ADU construction. read more

After researching several general contractors in the Costa Mesa and Lakewood area, we chose ADU West Coast for our garage conversion. From the initial consultation through final inspection, their team was communicative, organized, and transparent about costs. The design-build process was seamless -- they walked us through the permit process with the city and kept us updated every step of the way. Our new accessory dwelling unit adds real value to our property. Highly recommend Beach Builders to anyone considering an ADU in Southern California read more

We recently completed our ADU garage conversion with ADU West Coast. The house is for my mom who was moving down from Sacramento so we were balancing her requests from long distance and our desire to have the house blend in with our current home. Cameron and team were exceptional throught the process and the the project was completed in about 9 months. The actual build did not take long once the permits and drawings were all approved by the city. The actual build was between 4-5 months. The crew, led by their PM, Ruben was also very helpful, giving us ideas and recommedations on how to improve the house. Anytime we found something that needed to be corrected or tweaked they were quick to remedy the issue. We checked out a few ADU companies before deciding on ADU West Coast but found the type of build they offered and their regular communication the right fit for us. Cameron also gave us tours of a few of their projects before we even agreed to sign with them. We would recommend using them, but like any project we do recommend that you are personally involved. Their team was very open to us checking on the progress each day. Also, they were also very good about keeping the exterior clean as much as possible. We've seen other homes where the exterior becomes a dump but Cameron and team were constantly making sure the property didn't become an eyesore while the work was being completed. I would definitely recommend them for your ADU conversion. read more

We had the best experience with ADU West Coast. We wanted to convert our garage into an ADU for additional rental income to support our family. But we didn't know where to start. Throughout doing research, I noticed Cameron's informative videos regarding ADU's. His knowledge of ADU's helped our family better understand how it works. So, we decided to reach out! Cameron set up an in-person consultation. Throughout our consultation, Cameron took the time to really understand our needs and why we were building the ADU. Also, that we had a tight budget. He took this all into consideration and gave us a lot of great advice and information. We received our quote and it was right in our budget! We signed the contract and from there ADU West Coast did the rest! It was great because our busy family didn't have the time to manage a project like this. They took care of the plans, drawings, permits, talking with the city, construction etc.. All we needed to do was pay the fees and pick the designs. Our project did take a long-time to complete due to the city being backed up on approving permits and inspection and we had some bumps in the road (as you can expect with any project). Nevertheless, ADU West Coast did as much as they could to push the city for us and reassure our confidence in the process. The team at ADU West Coast always made themselves available for us to ask any question big or small (just a text or phone call away). And we asked A LOT of questions lol. Our ADU is now complete and the quality of work is impeccable. I definitely recommend going with ADU West Coast. Especially, if this is something new for you! We will definitely be using ADU West Coast for our next ADU project! read more

Chi and Simon called me back right away after calling them or texting them. Cameron is very knowledgeable on ADU's.

We had been contemplating doing an ADU for years to house a family member but It seemed like a daunting process. I finally decided to pull the trigger on our ADU and I'm happy we were able to find ADU West Coast to help us out with our garage conversion. From design to construction, communication was great throughout the job. You can tell they have been doing this a while. Having the in house designer and engineer was huge. I have had really bad experiences previously with contractors but this was the total opposite. If you are looking to build an ADU in LA or OC i highly recommend using them. read more

We decided to build a custom ADU from the ground up in the back of our large. We decided to max out the sq ft and build the largest ADU the city would allow (1,200 sq ft). Our plan was to build a new ADU for us to move into and rent out the existing front house out for $3,000 a month. We wanted to make sure that we hired a team that was well versed, not only ADU construction, but also has experience in custom home development. I liked the fact that Chsung was both the licensed engineer and general contractor doing the job. This made the process a lot easier from the planning stage through the construction. I thought their team was very knowledgeable and professional. I was very pleased with their work and the timeline it was completed. They were very transparent the entire time and i am going to use them again in the future as well as recommend to e read more

CSL Builder (aka ADU West Coast) was the designer and builder for our recently built house.   My wife and I did a lot of research when picking the contractors to build our house and went through a handful of different builders without any luck. We eventually found CSL Builders through a referral from an elderly couple who had their kitchen beautifully remodeled by CSL Builders. CSL Builder immediately stood out from the rest.  The quality of their work far exceeded the work put into multi-million dollar homes sold around the area. What differentiates CSL Builders over the builders is that they actually listened to our inputs. We spent 1.5 years working with the 3 brothers who operate CSL Builder and they delivered everything as promised. They took the time to build everything right. They did not cut any corner but in fact they even educate us on what red flags to look for when getting a rental property. It has been months after we moved into the newly built house and I still have friends/family who commented on how well-designed the house is. Needless to say, CSL Builder is absolutely amazing! Professional, organized, easy to get ahold of, and just an all around pleasure to work with. Thanks CSL Builder for making our dream home possible! Can't wait until the next project with you guys. read more

CALLING ALL INVESTORS! I got nothing but love for Cameron and his team after this project. From the start they were very transparent and ALWAYS responded in a timely matter. I received quotes from 5 other venders and all though the pricing was a little bit higher then them I will say I chose ADU West Coast based on their experience and the level professionalism that their team brought to the table. These guys know what they are talking about in which being a new real estate investor they were able to develop a game plan and create a beautiful design that not only fit my properties needs but also my future investments as well. They listened to what I wanted and although there were times I had to make changes to the designs mid project, they were very understanding and made it very easy to do so. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND guys! read more

ADU West Coast did an amazing job at an ADU garage conversion at one of my rental properties in Long Beach. We had talked to a few contractors and felt that ADU west coast was best fit for the job due to their past experience in construction. They were able to actually walk us through one of their projects which they had recently completed. The process was super streamlined and the communication was great throughout the project. I had a horrible experience with contractors in the past and I am thrilled that we chose to go with a reliable contractor that does what they say they're going to do. 5 stars!!!! read more

Great service. I would use them again if I need them. Highly recommend their service. Smooth process to get my ADU permits!

ADU West Coast just completed our garage to ADU conversion that included an extension to the existing garage. They helped us through the entire project start to finish, including ADU design, submitting plans to city, and execution of build and were amenable to our customization requests and modifications during the project. Due to supply chain issues and other unforeseen circumstances there were some delays to project completion (as there always are), but they were good about communicating throughout so we knew what was happening and why. We collected a handful of estimates prior to starting the project and their was definitely the best value we found, resulting ADU is beautiful and in the end we paid what was estimated with minimal overages (only when we chose higher end fixtures as was explained up front). Final payment was as expected and we never felt "nickel-and-dimed" or that there were a bunch of hidden costs when working with them. Overall positive experience. read more
