"Expo Home did a fantastic job from beginning to end. Maurice our sales representative came to our home and very thoughtfully walked us through everything. He helped us to make a difficult and expensive purchase decision. The contract was signed Friday evening and the work was completed by Thursday afternoon. The installers Ricardo and Omar arrived promptly on install day morning at 8am and worked quickly to do all the work by 4pm. They respected our home and kept work areas clean with tarps. Omar especially kept me informed of the progress of the project throughout the day. Ricardo as the lead installer was very skilled in performing the work and knowledgeable about all the details of the project. I would highly recommend Expo Home for your next tub to walk in shower conversion. Thanks to everyone at Expo Home team and satisfied to be member of their family."

"at first I thought badly about Expo because my wife and I thought this project is going to be fast and easy. But after meeting and talking with the staff. I found that I was wrong about Expo. It did take a little time to get all the material for the bathroom because of the Colbert and truckers. The materials when late getting in, and then my wife received a phone call from Expo saying we got everything we can come up on Friday at eight o'clock in the morning they pulled up. Then I couldn't believe that just to men were going to do this project, but to my aspects. I could not believe that they would do a good job but Oscar and his helper showed me step-by-step as they worked. Oscar showed me how the drain was so bad that he had to change some of the plumbing to get the base in right. And after they got the walls in and hooked in the shower and tested it to make sure it was functioning properly and showed me how to use the faucets and make sure the grab bars were at the right height. and had me stand by the wall and marked the wall to place them on, and showed me how strong they were, and I could rely on not falling and as they were preparing to put the shower doors on. I couldn't believe how nice they look, the glass was nice and thick and move so easy and how they cocked all this seems around the doors to make sure they were sealed so water can't get out. And what a job they did not just did they change my bathtub to a walk-in shower but they changed the entire bathroom to a beautiful bathroom. I couldn't believe that this was going to be such a beautiful bathroom, and did not just changed my bathroom but they changed my mind about how wrong I was about Expo. I give all the staff at Expo a great thank you for staying with me and keeping me from canceling the project and for putting up with my bad attitude and now I'm thinking about changing my other bathroom. I am very handicapped and it's hard to get in the bathtub to take a shower without help from my wife. But now I can get in and out without any help. Thanks to Oscar and the staff from Expo and my wife loves the bathroom. And can't believe it would turn out so nice"

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.
