WE DO NOT BUILD OR QUOTE ADDITIONS. We do Kitchens, baths, decks, docks and more. When craftsmanship matters, call us. License and insurance covers work over water and up to $1,000,000. If you can imagine it we will build or transform it.

"John was very responsive and quick to act on an attic ladder repair I needed. He was eager to help me complete the project and did what he said he would. I will definitely be hiring John again in the future"

"Excellent. I needed to convert a tiny bathroom with tub, and a bedroom, into a larger bathroom with walk-in shower and a laundry room. Thay engaged an engineer to move a wall, and the result will help me age-in-place in comfort and safety. Throughout the process the workers were pleasant, respectful of my space and needs, and helpful in many unexpected ways. Having heard many remodeling horror stories I was pleasantly surprised by their efforts to make the process as clean and easy as possible."

"Excellent! My home was outdated and then apparently had some issues with how the plumbing and electric were originally installed causing problems. I was fearful of ending up with overpriced subpar work and then being stuck! None of this with Yankee Southern.. from the beginning they were clear with what could and should be done and how to approach things from the most practical, efficient and beautiful way. Everything looks better than I had even imagined and I feel secure knowing it was done correctly and I won’t have problems in the future. I am very pleased."

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.
