Long Beach Backyard Builders ADU Program

A residential accessory dwelling unit (ADU) design initiative developed as part of the City of Long Beach Backyard Builders ADU Program, supporting homeowners through the design, permitting, and construction process. The program focuses on creating efficient, budget-conscious ADU projects while meeting applicable City requirements and maintaining a streamlined path from concept through completion.

The project process encompasses preliminary design and floor planning, development of permit-ready architectural documents, coordination with required consultants, and submission to the City of Long Beach Permit Center. The program also provides a structured framework for construction bidding, permitting, progress monitoring, and project close-out, with the goal of delivering functional ADU housing within established budgets and schedules.
