Your Trusted REDMOND ADU EXPERTS
As a local contractor, I’ve spent years working with Redmond homeowners to create legal, efficient ADUs that add real value. A favorite project was a basement ADU off Avondale Road where we opened a tight layout, improved natural light, and met all egress and energy-code requirements. Seeing the owner list it as a long-term rental within weeks was a great win.
