"Michael Gomez and Unique Bath are crooks! They sold me this dream and promised to fix the issues presented to them, but have been avoiding me. Check out BBB, they were revoked for all of the complaints, do your due diligence before hiring a contractor, I am warning you!!!! When uncovering the vanity and toilet that was covered in plastic sheeting, it revealed a large chip out of my vessel sink bowl and a large chip out of the top of my toilet tank. While installing the glass contractors dropped the glass while in my brand-new shower and shattered the glass and caused a significant amount of damage to my brand-new shower, that I have not even gotten to use yet. Now I have glass everywhere, blood everywhere and a damaged bathroom! I spoke with one of the owners, Alex and he stated that a new glass panel was being rush ordered for next day installation. I remained calm, as at this time I was worried about the glass contractorsâ hand that had a deep gash. They did attempt to clean up the glass and blood as much as they could, however there was so much left for me to clean and deal with afterwards. After cleaning up as much glass as I could, I notated the damage that was apparent and contacted Erika and did not get a response. The next day I was told the glass was being picked up at 11:30am and I was antsy and rushed home from work to await the delivery and install of the new glass. I waited until 4pm to contact Erika to find out what was going on and was then told that the glass was in fact not ready and that it wouldnâ t be ready until the following Monday or Tuesday. By this time, a month from the start date of the project has elapsed. I then again addressed the damage in the bathroom and was told it was forwarded to the owners and it would be addressed the following week. By now I am feeling that my concerns and are being brushed off as though it does not matter that they have damaged my vanity, toilet, brand new shower, walls, sink and shower faucet. I have also made them aware several times that the shower is leaking and now that they are paid in full, they seem to not care!!! As of today 09/25/23, over a year has passed and these items have not been corrected, although I have been promised on several occasions that they would be! BEWARE!!!"

The Grove Handyman is a family owned business with well over 50 years of experience. We control our quality of work by staying small. All jobs will be overseen or handled by company owner Roger Camacho.

"As an association board member, I was looking for a licensed and insured handyman, who would be available when we needed repairs for our 4 floor, 30-unit building. They needed to be responsible and experienced in a multitude of jobs. I also needed someone who would also be available for a unit owner if needed. I got calls asking what I needed to fix and what I wanted to pay but no one would come out to SEE what needed to be done. Roger Camacho of The Grove Handyman called me and came over to look over our building. He handed me copies of his certification and insurance then sent me a quote. He did his first job; replacing over 125 lightbulbs in the building, including the garage. He cleaned each fixture, fixed what needed fixing and replaced each bulb. Everyone noticed the difference! He was persistent in resolving a leaky window that flooded a unit. Not a drop through the rainy season. Roger communicates well and responds to calls. He is responsible, honest and a talented person when it comes to resolving problems. He redid my master bath, took out the old whirlpool tub, removed the old tile floor and replaced all the wallboard. From electrical to plumbing to retiling the tub area and the floor, I am in love with my new bathroom. I cannot express the trust and respect I have for his character and integrity. I will never hesitate to recommend Roger to anyone."

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.
