Building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) can be one of the smartest moves you make—whether you need extra rental income, space for extended family, or simply want to boost your home’s value. At Gold Coast Solutions, we guide you from start to finish with honest pricing, friendly service, and quality results. Here’s how we helped one Claremont family create an ADU they truly love.
Project Highlights
Timeline & Budget: Starting in December 2024, we completed the ADU in late February 2025. We stayed within budget and on time, covering everything from the design to finishing touches.
Full-Scope Construction: We handled everything—design, demo, utilities, foundation, framing, roofing, insulation, drywall, interior/exterior paint, tile, flooring, plumbing, electrical fixtures, and HVAC.
Quality Materials & Features: Custom cabinetry with soft-close hinges, quartz countertops, stacked-stone façade, and a brand-new 200-amp electrical panel for modern demands.
Energy Efficiency & Comfort: R-15 wall insulation, R-38 attic insulation, and a 1-ton mini-split HVAC system keep the new space comfortable year-round.
What the Homeowners Had to Say
“We actually heard about Gold Coast through a family friend who was having a kitchen remodel done. We were in the process of looking at different contractors, and given their recommendation, we definitely wanted to check out Gold Coast.”
“My first impression of Joey was that he was very upfront, honest. He didn’t try to lowball the estimate, nor exaggerate how quickly he could have it done. But all that being said, it couldn’t have gone any better.”
“What really stood out was the communication and the level of professionalism—and their responsiveness to our demands.”
“The quality of the workmanship of our ADU is fantastic. … We decided to go with Gold Coast because what they promised—the quality of the product, plus the timetable plus the cost—they delivered on. … We love our ADU. It’s fantastic. Very, very pleased and would heartily recommend Gold Coast.”
Why Build an ADU?
- Rental Income
Need extra income to offset your mortgage or simply build financial security? An ADU is a convenient rental option that doesn’t require purchasing a separate property. - Flexibility for Family or Guests
Whether it’s for older parents, adult children, or visiting friends, an ADU keeps everyone close but allows for privacy and independence. - Increase Property Value
A well-built ADU can significantly boost resale value. Potential buyers see a turnkey rental or in-law suite, which often commands a higher home price. - Efficient, Modern Construction
With new framing, insulation, and modern utilities, you’re likely to save on heating and cooling costs compared to older home additions. - Customize to Your Taste
From cabinets and countertops to paint colors and flooring, every detail can be tailored to match your style—just like we did with these homeowners’ stacked stone facade and quartz finishes.
How We Make It Easy
