"The shower replacement was measured by the salesman, who measured the shower dimensions inside the old fiberglass shower by instruction from the owner. After materials were ordered and the old shower removed. The shower base was too short by 7 inches and too narrow by 1 1/2 inches. I asked the owner to requote with a larger shower base. This would have added an additional $5000 to the project. The shower has a seat in it. The additional 7 inches in length would have given us more manuverability. Pros: The installer was great, 5 stars. The owner wrote off $350 extra work to remove a soffett to make the shower taller. Cons: The salesman promised a larger shower, it wasn't. We ordered brushed nickel fixtures and got chrome. The shower was smaller than it could have been. Owner and salesman 2 stars. I would have liked the option to remove the old shower and then do the measurements. The shower turned out nice, but we were dissappointed with the size."

Guest house building services FAQs
In most states, yes—you can build a guest house, but every city or county sets its own zoning rules and building codes. Before breaking ground, check local ordinances, confirm lot setbacks, and secure the right permits. A local contractor or design-build firm can walk you through the paperwork and site requirements so your project starts on solid legal footing.
Yes—homeowners often tap a few different financing tools. A home-equity line of credit (HELOC) lets you borrow against your equity as you need funds. If you prefer a lump sum tied directly to the project, a short-term construction loan can roll into a second mortgage once the build is complete. Cash-out refinancing is another option: you replace your current mortgage with a larger one and use the difference to cover construction costs.
When you build a guest house, you’re creating a separate structure for hosting visitors without the full amenities needed for permanent living. An accessory dwelling unit, however, includes a complete kitchen and bathroom, meeting building codes for a long-term residence. This key difference makes an ADU ideal for long-term occupancy or rental income, adding enduring value to your property.
How many rooms you need depends on how you plan to use the space. Aim for one bedroom per every one or two occupants to make sure everyone has enough privacy and comfort. Added living and dining areas give you extra functionality, especially for rental use or long-term stays.
Most homeowners pick somewhere between 600 and 1,500 square feet to fit all the essentials. Make sure your design supports one to two occupants per bedroom and includes enough common areas for comfortable daily living. A well-proportioned layout boosts both functionality and property value.
No—a guest house isn’t just a bump-out on your main home. A bump-out is a small extension within an existing room for extra seating or storage. In contrast, you build a guest house as a standalone building with its own foundation and amenities, giving you a fully separate living area that can boost your property’s versatility and value.
