Trusted by Families Across Dallas

Great experience converting a detached garage into a Mother-In-Law Suite. Full kitchen, bathroom, shower and laundry n demand hot water. Punctual and well managed. Jeff and his crews take pride in their work. There was one minor issue with city permitting but it was quickly resolved and was at no fault of EADU. Highly recommend!

Tyler Hawkins

Working with Estate ADU was a fantastic experience! Their team was professional, transparent, and incredibly skilled. They transformed my vision into a beautiful, high-quality ADU on time and within budget. Their transparency throughout the process was refreshing, and I appreciated their honest advice on what would work best for my property. I highly recommend Estate ADU for anyone looking to build an Accessory Dwelling Unit—truly top-notch service!

We met with multiple companies to get quotes for our backyard tiny house. Jeff and his team were by far the most professional and gave us a competitive quote. We are looking forward to getting started!

ADU's

A Smarter Way to Add Livable Space to Your Dallas Property

 

Estate ADU specializes exclusively in custom accessory dwelling units for homeowners across Dallas, including Lakewood, East Dallas, Highland Park, University Park, the M Streets, and surrounding neighborhoods. Every ADU we build is thoughtfully designed around your property, your family’s needs, and the architectural character of your home.

From feasibility and design through permitting and construction, we handle the entire process with a polished, professional approach—bringing structure and clarity to what can otherwise be a complex decision.

 

Garage Conversions

A Practical, Cost-Effective Path to Multi-Generational Living

 

Garage conversions offer Dallas homeowners a smart way to create private, comfortable living space for parents or family members—without expanding the footprint of the home. Estate ADU transforms existing garages into fully functional ADUs, complete with upgraded foundations, insulation, utilities, and floor plans designed for comfort, accessibility, and long-term use.

We serve neighborhoods throughout Lakewood, East Dallas, the M Streets, Highland Park, University Park, Preston Hollow, and other established areas where space is limited and family needs are evolving. Our team manages feasibility, permitting, design, and construction through a streamlined, white-collar process that removes guesswork and delivers a finished space that feels intentional—not improvised.

Home Additions

Thoughtfully Designed Space for Growing Family Needs

 

When adding space matters more than moving, a well-designed home addition can provide the flexibility your family needs while preserving the character of your home and neighborhood. Estate ADU delivers custom home additions for Dallas homeowners who want cohesive design, quality construction, and a clear process from start to finish.

We work throughout Lakewood, East Dallas, the M Streets, Highland Park, University Park, Preston Hollow, and surrounding communities, managing feasibility, design, permitting, and construction under one roof. Our approach is deliberate and refined—resulting in additions that feel like a natural extension of the home, not an afterthought.

Our Design-Build Process

01 | PLAN AND EVALUATE
We begin with a focused conversation and a site assessment so we can understand your goals, your property, and your timeline. Our team reviews feasibility, zoning considerations, and architectural direction early so you know exactly what is possible on your lot. This stage gives you clarity before investing further and establishes a clear path toward a permitted, buildable ADU.
02 | DESIGN AND APPROVE
Once the direction is set, we coordinate architectural drawings, elevations, and the documents required for city and HOA review. Estate ADU manages communication with reviewers and guides you through each checkpoint so nothing feels uncertain. By the end of this phase, you have approved plans, accurate pricing, and a clear understanding of the next steps.
03 | BUILD AND COMPLETE
With permits secured, construction begins. Our team oversees scheduling, trades, quality, and communication from start to finish. Homeowners receive consistent updates and a predictable experience as the ADU takes shape. The result is a well built, thoughtfully planned accessory dwelling that supports your family’s needs for years to come.
