Where to Find Us
ADU Contractor San Jose · 1600 Component Dr, San Jose, CA 95131 — serving Mountain View
ADU Construction in Mountain View, San Jose
Mountain View's single-family neighborhoods sit right in the middle of the tech corridor, and with some of the highest rents in the Bay Area, a well-located ADU here can be one of the strongest rental investments in our service area. Housing stock is a mix of older ranch homes and newer infill, most with attached garages that convert readily and backyards that, while not huge, are often deep enough for a compact detached unit.
We manage Mountain View ADU projects through the city's own building department — design, permitting, and construction — sized to maximize both livability and rental value on the area's typical suburban lots. Text us for a free consultation anywhere in Mountain View.
