Why ADU demand
is strong here.

Studio-adjacent rental demand. With Warner Bros., Disney, and Universal close by, Burbank ADUs draw a steady, stable pool of entertainment and production tenants. Owners build for income or to house family near the work.

Local permitting

Permitting in
Burbank.

Burbank has its own Pre-Approved ADU Program (BPAP) under state law AB 1332, plus the LA County pre-approved plan set adapted to Burbank's code. Using a pre-approved design is the fastest path to a permit here.

Plans are submitted through Burbank's ProjectDOX online portal.
Typical timeline
Burbank runs its own review. Pre-approved plans through the Burbank Pre-Approved ADU Program (BPAP) target permit issuance in about 30 days; a standard plan-check review runs roughly 6 to 8 weeks.

Why it matters

One contract.
One crew.
No handoffs.

Most ADU projects stall at the seam between a designer and a contractor. We do both. The team that draws your plans is the same team that pulls your permits and builds the unit.

Drawings match the build

When design and construction share the same team, field changes do not require going back to a separate architect and waiting weeks for a revision.

Fixed price, not an allowance game

What you sign is what you pay, unless you change the program. No allowance line items that blow up at selection time.

Weekly written reports

Your project manager sends a written update every Friday. You always know where the schedule stands.
