ADU Construction in Anaheim, CA
Serhal Builders builds ADUs for Anaheim homeowners, from detached backyard units to garage conversions, attached ADUs and junior ADUs. We’re based next door in Fullerton, so Anaheim jobs are close to home for our crew.
Anaheim gives homeowners three ways to get an ADU approved: a standard custom-plan review, the city’s Pre-Approved Plan Catalogue, and ADU Express, an accelerated path for qualifying single-family lots that choose a pre-approved detached plan. We help you pick the path that fits your lot and budget.
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.

We prepare and submit the permit package and handle plan-check corrections with the city.
Utilities & Systems
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.
