With our 30 years of experience we can help you fall in love with your home all over again. Unfortunately, we do NOT do additions. However, from kitchens to baths to floors and ceilings allow us to help you create your dream home. We are committed to delivering premier customer service that is second to none. It is our highest priority to get the job done right the first time on every assignment. We provide a full consultation to explain available options so that you can choose the service that's right for your home or business. We strive not only to meet your project's needs, but also to prevent potential problems in the future. We strive to save you both time and money by combining our 30 years of experience, the highest quality materials, and our dedication to delivering exceptional service.

"The owner, Joe Ward, personally performed and oversaw all services alongside his team each day. He provided a fair and transparent estimate for the complete remodel, including a Tub-to-Shower conversion. With 35 years of experience, Joe inspired confidence in choosing him and his company for our project. His artistry and expertise were evident throughout the process, as he guided us in selecting options that resulted in a stunning and enduring design. Joe’s honesty and dedication shine through in his meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every aspect—from plumbing and electrical work to flooring and paint—meets his exacting standards without cutting any corners. He works exclusively with his trusted team, eliminating the need for unfamiliar contractors and maintaining consistency with the same crew each day, all led by Joe himself. Punctuality and communication were flawless, and his team treated our home with respect, thoroughly cleaning up at the end of each day. My trust in Joe is absolute, and I look forward to hiring him again for further updates to our over-100-year-old home. If I could, I’d gladly award him 1,000 stars! Thank you, Joe, for your exceptional work. We are in love with our bathroom and forever grateful we chose you!"

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.
