After my father passed away, we knew we wanted my mother closer to the family. She made it clear: I want my own space. I want my own kitchen. I want my own area. Building an ADU became the perfect solution.
Building an ADU became the perfect solution.
From the very beginning, I noticed Backyard Estates’ professionalism. When I met Adam and Tom, they pulled up my house, walked me through placement options, and showed me what was possible. When they presented the concept, I immediately said, That’s it—that’s exactly what I was envisioning.

I’ve been in real estate and construction for over 20 years, so I know how most construction companies operate. I expected communication gaps, delays, and stalls. Instead, the opposite happened. The total construction phase was less than 10–12 weeks, which is incredibly fast for a project like this.

The process was seamless. Every Friday, like clockwork, I received a detailed professional update outlining exactly what had been completed and what was coming next. I was always informed and always in the loop.

Most importantly, I felt completely at ease. I could literally sit back and know that all of the details were being handled. I had nothing to worry about—and that is priceless.

Now, I’m looking forward to the day my mom moves in and sees her new home. Knowing she’ll have her independence while being surrounded by family brings me so much peace. Seeing the happiness on her face in her own space is going to bring me incredible joy.

Every Backyard Estates floor plan is thoughtfully engineered to feel open, functional, and intentional

Proven by Design
Our core floor plans are the result of years of real-world builds — engineered for efficiency, code compliance, and smooth approvals across Southern California.
Designed Around Your Property
Every lot has unique constraints and opportunities. We analyze access, setbacks, utilities, and natural light to unlock layouts that work better — not just on paper, but in real life.
Tailored to How You Live
When a property allows for it, we transform the standard footprint into something uniquely tailored to your lifestyle, whether it’s family, rental income, or long-term comfort.
Designed specifically for your property
With years of experience building ADUs across Southern California, we begin by carefully reviewing your property, local requirements, and long-term goals. From there, we outline realistic options so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
