"We are completely satisfied with our backyard, where we wanted to do a complete renovation, making our yard more beautiful and usable, for games with friends, easy access for my dogs and everything else! From the beginning Brian helped us with the choice of materials, locations, colors and many great suggestions. Our Project Manager, Delmar, and Brian did an excellent job updating us and communicating and always responded quickly to any questions or concerns. We had a tight deadline for our project because we wanted to finish before 06/01 - he did our entire project quickly and efficiently!

Hi I’m Elias I’ve been in the construction industry since 2013 I’m a local, family-run business, serving the Bay Area. My company provides a wide range of repair, maintenance, and improvement services; for both residential and commercial, We do jobs both big and small: from a one hour quick fix, up to full remodels. We get the job done right the first time- and I back it with a one year guarantee. My team and I have many years of experience in multiple trades; and we always use the best tools, techniques, and products for each situation. Best Regards Elias Bautista construction
"I am super appreciative that I found Elias. He really stepped up when a simple project turned into something a lot more complicated. We had some windows that we needed to replace, but in the course of fixing that, we ended up replacing the asbestos siding to our house, which revealed wood-shingled siding that needed to be painstakingly replaced. Elias handled everything for me. He found the right people to help him, kept me informed, and the work is clean and well done. I would definitely use his services in the future. I have since returned to him for various other repairs involving plumbing, electrical, tile work, drywall, and carpentry. Thank you for your services, Elias!"

FAQs for guest house building service projects in Pleasanton, CA
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.
