We work with a wide range of Aliso Viejo homeowners, and every project starts from a different place. Some folks in Glenwood or Canyon Vistas are looking to add an ADU for aging parents who want to stay close but keep their independence. Others near Vantis or Sausalito are outgrowing their kitchen and want it opened up without moving.
We hear from young families in Woodfield and English Village planning additions before a second kid arrives. We talk to retirees near the Aliso Viejo Country Club area exploring a tiny home for rental income. Remote workers all over town need a backyard office that actually feels separate from the house. Whatever your situation, we’ve probably built something close to it already.

We design and build tiny homes on wheels (THOW) that meet California RVIA certification standards, giving you flexibility since these units often sidestep some traditional zoning restrictions. Great for rental income, guest space, or downsizing without leaving your property. Most builds run 6-10 weeks once design is locked.
Park model homes give you more permanent square footage than a THOW while still qualifying under a different classification than standard construction. We handle utility hookups, foundation prep, and interior finish work. Popular with Aliso Viejo homeowners wanting a guest house feel without a full ADU permit process.
This is where we spend most of our time in Aliso Viejo. We manage the entire process, site survey, permit-ready plans, HOA submission, and construction. Detached, attached, or garage-conversion ADUs, we've built them on lots as tight as 5,000 square feet.
Prefab and modular construction lets us cut timeline significantly compared to stick-built projects. We coordinate factory build schedules with your site prep so foundation work and delivery line up. Good option for hillside lots where minimizing on-site construction time reduces disruption.

Nearly every neighborhood in Aliso Viejo, from Glenwood to St. Moritz, operates under an active HOA with its own design guidelines. We've submitted enough packages to know what each board typically wants to see, and we prepare documentation that moves through review faster.
Properties near Aliso Creek and Wood Canyon often sit on graded hillside lots. Soil stability, drainage planning, and retaining wall requirements come into play more here than in flatter parts of Orange County. We order soil reports early so surprises don't show up mid-build.
A lot of Aliso Viejo's newer tracts were built with efficient, smaller footprints. That means ADU and addition placement takes careful spatial planning around setbacks, parking requirements, and existing structures. We've solved this puzzle on dozens of properties.
Aliso Viejo follows California's state ADU law but adds its own local setback and parking stipulations on top. Missing one of these local layers is the most common reason homeowner-led projects get delayed at the permit counter. We stay current on both sets of rules.
We walk your property, review lot constraints, and give you an honest read on what’s realistically buildable given HOA rules and zoning.
We draft custom floor plans suited to your lot, whether that’s a tiny home, ADU, or addition, and refine based on your feedback.
We prepare and submit your HOA design review package alongside city permit applications, tracking both simultaneously to avoid delays.
Once plans are approved, you get a detailed, fixed-price proposal. No vague allowances, no surprise change orders down the road.
Our crews and coordinated subcontractors handle everything from foundation to final finish, with regular updates so you’re never wondering what’s happening.
We complete a final inspection with you, handle closing permits with the city, and make sure everything’s signed off before we call it done.

Almost certainly yes. Nearly every neighborhood here has an active HOA with design review requirements, separate from your city permit. We handle both submissions together so you're not managing two processes on your own.
Including design, HOA approval, permitting, and construction, most of our ADU projects take 6-9 months. HOA review timelines vary quite a bit by neighborhood, which is usually the biggest variable.
Tiny homes on wheels often fall under different regulations than permanent structures, but Aliso Viejo still has requirements around placement, utility hookups, and HOA visibility rules. We check your specific situation before you commit to anything.
An ADU is a permanent structure permitted as a dwelling unit on your property. A park model home is built to a different standard, often faster to install, and works well when a full ADU permit process isn't the right fit for your timeline or lot.
Yes, we're a fully licensed, bonded, and insured general contractor. We'll provide our license information as part of your proposal so you can verify it directly with the CSLB.
It might limit placement or require additional grading and engineering work, but it rarely rules out a project entirely. We order a soil report early in the process so we know exactly what we're working with before finalizing your design.
