"The original project (new lawn and flower bed converted to cactus plants and river rock) expanded after suggestions from Jodie, but I am pleased with the end result. I now have a garden that looks more open, tidy and attractive - plus importantly for me, low maintenance. When getting visits and quotes for the proposed work, I sensed Jodie was likely a passionate gardener herself and it was more than a job. One final comment from my neighbor about the guys doing the heavy work, when I apologized for the extra vehicle parking, he commented that they were very courteous and caused no problems."

"We recently had the pleasure of working with Kane Remodeling Services on our kitchen remodeling project, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. From start to finish, Dan and his team’s communication was nothing short of fantastic. They consistently kept us informed about every aspect of the project, and any delays were communicated promptly with clear reasons, which we greatly appreciated. Dan and team completed the project within the promised timeframe, which is a testament to their professionalism and commitment to their clients. Throughout the entire process, there was a remarkable level of transparency. We always felt in the loop and knew exactly what to expect at each stage of the remodel. What truly set them apart, though, was the sense of partnership they fostered. Rather than feeling like just another client, we felt like valued partners in the project. Our input was always welcomed, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about our satisfaction with the final result. The end result is a beautifully remodeled kitchen that we absolutely love. We can’t recommend Kane Remodeling Company lead by Dan, highly enough for their top-notch communication, professional execution, and the respectful, collaborative relationship they build with their clients. If you’re looking for a remodeler who will deliver on their promises and make you feel like a partner in the process, look no further!"

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.
