From small remodels to full ground up construction, we have the experience and expertise to make your dreams a reality!

"I can't say enough good things about Spartan Contracting! They took over a renovation project that a previous contractor had left unfinished, and not only did they complete the work, but they improved it beyond my expectations. One of the biggest parts of the project was redoing my staircase, which had been left in an unsafe and non-code-compliant state. Spartan Contracting not only brought it up to code but turned it into a custom-built masterpiece. It truly feels like a work of art in my home. Beyond the staircase, they also worked on my bathroom and other areas, and every aspect of their craftsmanship was top-notch. The team was professional, reliable, and incredibly skilled, but what really stood out to me was their thoughtfulness and attention to detail. They included me in every decision, making sure I was comfortable with each step of the process, and they were always responsive to my texts and calls. Finding a contractor who is not just technically skilled but also artistic and communicative is rare, and Spartan Contracting is exactly that. Their work speaks for itself, and after this experience, they will likely be my go-to contractor for future home renovation projects. If you're looking for a team that delivers quality, integrity, and craftsmanship, I highly recommend Spartan Contracting!"

It was a comfortable experience and she was such a blessing."

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.
