Detached ADUs
A separate living space with its own relationship to the main home, garden and surrounding property.
Accessory dwelling units
A little more room. A lot more possibility.
The best use of your property starts with understanding how you want to live. An accessory dwelling unit can give family more independence, create a place to work, or add a separate living space—without leaving the neighborhood you love.
Let’s talk about your project
The right fit for your property
A clear purpose.
A considered plan.
North Bay Carpentry approaches an ADU as a complete building project, not simply an extra room. Site access, available space, utilities, design and the requirements of your local jurisdiction all shape what makes sense. We start with those questions, then work through a clear plan for construction.

Garage conversions
A different use for existing space. Structure, headroom, access and utility requirements need careful review before design begins.
Attached living spaces
An addition that connects thoughtfully to the existing home while respecting privacy, circulation and day-to-day life.

A few useful answers
Start with
good questions.
Can every property accommodate an ADU?
Not every site offers the same options. Lot conditions, access, utilities and local requirements need to be reviewed before a design or construction commitment. Start with a conversation about your specific property.
Do I need finished plans before contacting you?
No. An early conversation can help identify what information you need and what the next step should be. If you already have plans, bring them so we can discuss the scope.
What will an ADU cost?
Size alone does not determine the budget. Site preparation, utilities, design, structural work and finishes all matter. We discuss your priorities and site conditions before developing a project-specific scope.
