What Our Clients Say
I recently had Golden ADU build an ADU on my property, and I'm very happy with the results. The team was professional and detail-oriented throughout the process. They guided me from the initial design to the final touches, always available to answer questions and provide advice. The project was completed on time and within budget, which was a huge relief. The craftsmanship is solid, and the ADU looks great. The team was respectful and kept the job site clean. Thank you for the great work!
I was really impressed by the professionalism of the team and the follow up by Isaac and Chai. I turned my ADU into an Airbnb that not only covers my monthly payments but generates profits. The finishes were top quality and the modern touches were exactly what I wanted, the final result was above and beyond my expectations, all of that for a reasonable price. I would recommend Golden ADU to anyone searching for additional income or simply for more space for a friend or family member.
These guys are the best. I had been searching for a contractor to build an ADU at my property in Echo Park; Golden ADU came highly recommended, and they did not disappoint. Crystal clear communication throughout every step in the process, and they delivered a BEAUTIFUL unit within their estimated time frame. I will be using them again in the future. They guided me from the initial design to the final touches, always available to answer questions and provide advice.
