ADU Construction in Villa Park, CA
Serhal Builders builds ADUs in Villa Park, including detached backyard units, garage conversions, attached ADUs and junior ADUs. Our office is in Fullerton, a short drive away.
Villa Park is known for large residential lots, and its 2023 ADU ordinance treated lots under one acre and lots of one acre or more differently. In December 2024, the state housing department (HCD) told the city that several parts of that ordinance didn’t match state law, so we confirm the current rules with the city before design.
We’re a licensed, veteran-owned general contractor (CSLB #1074208) with more than 31 years in construction, and we’ve built ADUs throughout northern Orange County.

Electrical, plumbing, sewer, water and gas tie-ins planned early so there are no surprises mid-build.
Kitchens, Baths & Finishes
Cabinets, counters, tile, flooring and fixtures, all handled by the same team that remodels full homes.
Solutions & Benefits
Every lot is different. These are the three ways most homeowners add a unit.
Detached ADUs & Garage Conversions
A detached ADU gives you a separate backyard home with its own entry, kitchen and bath. A garage conversion reuses an existing structure and is often the most budget-friendly way to add a unit.
Attached ADUs & Junior ADUs
An attached ADU connects to your home but lives independently. A junior ADU is up to 500 square feet created inside your existing home, a good fit for family members who want their own space nearby.
Plans & Permits Your Way
Use our in-house design, our design partner, or plans you already have. We prepare the permit package, respond to plan-check comments and coordinate inspections until final sign-off.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are ADUs allowed in Villa Park?
Yes. Villa Park allows ADUs and junior ADUs under its local code and California ADU law. Your lot, utilities and any easements decide which type and size work best.
Is Villa Park's ADU ordinance changing?
It may be. In December 2024, HCD told the city that parts of its 2023 ordinance didn't comply with state ADU law. We check the city's current rules before we design.
Does lot size affect ADU size in Villa Park?
Under the 2023 ordinance, yes: lots under one acre and lots of one acre or more had different size caps. Because the state flagged parts of that ordinance, we confirm the current limits for your lot.
