Redwood City ADU & Remodeling FAQ

Do you remodel homes throughout Redwood City, including Emerald Hills and Farm Hill?
Yes. Those are two of our most common Redwood City project areas. We also work in downtown Redwood City, Woodside Plaza, Mount Carmel, and throughout the 94061 and 94062 ZIP codes.
Can you build an ADU on a hillside Redwood City lot?
Yes. Emerald Hills, Farm Hill, and parts of Redwood Oaks are sloped. We coordinate the geotechnical report, design the foundation accordingly (pier-and-grade-beam, stepped footing, or full retaining structure as needed), and handle the city's hillside review process. See: Can I Build an ADU on My Property?
How long do Redwood City building permits take?
For straightforward remodels, plan check at the City of Redwood City runs about 6 to 10 weeks. ADUs and room additions are typically 10 to 14 weeks. Larger projects with planning review can run longer. We submit complete drawings to minimize cycles.
Do you handle older homes with knob-and-tube wiring or galvanized plumbing?
Yes. Many homes in older parts of Redwood City, especially near downtown and in Mount Carmel, still have knob-and-tube wiring, galvanized plumbing, or original gas lines. We bring everything up to current code as part of the remodel and coordinate inspections.
Are you familiar with Redwood City's downtown precise plan?
Yes. The downtown precise plan governs height, setback, and design for properties near the central business district. We have worked under these standards before and know what gets approved.

"Our 1920s downtown bungalow needed a complete kitchen and bath gut. They preserved the original built-ins and bead-board, and the new kitchen feels like it has always belonged in the house. The project came in on time and on budget."

"Hillside property, retaining walls, sloped driveway. Our Emerald Hills lot was challenging. They built our 850 sq ft ADU on grade, handled the soil report, and the structure is rock solid. The view from the new unit is incredible too."

"We added a family room and renovated the primary bath in our Woodside Plaza ranch. The crew worked around our two dogs and small kids without any issues. Communication was constant, with daily updates and a clear schedule. No surprises."
