Contact Ellery ADU Studio West Hollywood - Free ADU Estimate in West Hollywood
Call (213) 329-7167 to schedule your free ADU estimate in West Hollywood. We’re here Monday through Friday 7:30 AM to 7:30 PM, Saturday and Sunday 8:30 AM to 7:30 PM. When you call, you’ll reach a live coordinator who’ll connect you with our local team - no hard sell, no deposit required, just a free assessment of your property and a written price range before we leave. Same-day appointments are often available within West Hollywood.
What Happens When You Call
Step 1: We answer and listen. A live coordinator picks up during business hours, takes your address in West Hollywood or nearby, and asks what you’re hoping to build - a backyard cottage, garage conversion, or attached addition. We’ll tell you honestly whether your lot looks promising under current zoning, so you don’t waste time on a site visit if the project won’t pencil.
Step 2: We schedule a site assessment. We book a 60- to 90-minute walkthrough at your property, typically within a few business days. You’ll receive a calendar invite and a text when our assessor is en route. The person who arrives has built ADUs in West Hollywood before; they’ll know the local hillside grading rules, the R-1 setback quirks, and how the city handles utility tie-ins.
Step 3: You get a written estimate. Within 48 hours of the visit, we email a line-item estimate: design fees, permit expediting, construction, and any site-specific conditions we spotted. This is Haven Standard Clause 1 - flat price, written scope, written warranty, before anyone starts. No verbal ballparks, no “we’ll figure it out later.”
Step 4: We build to the drawings. Once you sign, the same team that assessed your site handles design, permit submission, and construction. The price we quoted is the price you pay unless you change the scope. We photo-document every phase; you get a shared folder with timestamped evidence of what we found and what we did.
Why West Hollywood Homeowners Call Us First
- We know West Hollywood’s permit landscape. The city processes ADUs through a separate planning track with its own checklist, and we’ve navigated it for homeowners from the Norma Triangle to the Sunset Strip. That local fluency typically shaves weeks off the entitlement timeline.
- Every pro on your job is required to hold the license and insurance California requires. We verify coverage annually, and the license number appears on your contract. You can check it yourself through the CSLB - we encourage it.
- Transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Your written estimate breaks out design, permitting, and construction as separate line items. If we hit unexpected soil conditions or a buried utility, we document it with photos and pause for your approval before spending your money.
- Workmanship backed by The Haven Standard. Every ADU we build carries a written warranty, and we leave a documented record of every critical system: foundation readings, electrical panel photos, plumbing pressure tests. If something fails, we know exactly what the original condition was.
Before
AfterOur Service Area Around West Hollywood
We serve West Hollywood directly, with site assessments typically scheduled within 2-3 business days. Nearby cities we work in regularly include Studio City, Los Angeles, North Hollywood, Culver City, Sherman Oaks, Burbank, Santa Monica, Van Nuys, Westchester, Inglewood, and Glendale. Response times vary by distance and current workload - Studio City and Beverly Grove are usually quickest, while Glendale and Santa Monica may take an extra day or two to coordinate. If you’re outside these areas but within Los Angeles County, call anyway. We’ve taken on projects in Eagle Rock, Highland Park, and Mid-Wilshire when the lot and the timeline made sense.
Frequently Asked Questions - Booking & Estimates
Yes - the initial site assessment and written estimate are completely free, with no obligation to hire us. We believe you shouldn’t pay to find out whether a project is feasible. Call (213) 329-7167 to schedule yours.
We typically schedule site assessments within 2-3 business days for properties in West Hollywood proper. Same-week appointments are often available, especially if you have flexibility on morning vs. afternoon slots. Call (213) 329-7167 and we’ll find a time that works.
No - our rates are the same whether we assess your site on a Tuesday morning or a Saturday afternoon. Our weekend hours are Saturday and Sunday 8:30 AM to 7:30 PM. We don’t offer after-7:30 PM appointments, so there’s no evening surcharge because there’s no evening service.
Your property address, a rough idea of what you want to build (backyard cottage, garage conversion, or attached unit), and any known constraints - a narrow driveway, an easement, a neighbor’s encroaching fence. If you have a recent survey or plot plan, great, but it’s not required for the initial call. We’ll tell you what to gather before the site visit.
We accept check, ACH transfer, and all major credit cards. For construction contracts, we use a milestone-based draw schedule tied to permit approval, foundation completion, framing, and final inspection - never a large upfront deposit. The exact schedule is spelled out in your written estimate, Haven Standard Clause 1. Call (213) 329-7167 for details.

No pressure, no deposit to talk. We’ll tell you what your property can likely support, what it will cost, and how long the permit queue looks right now. If you’re not ready to build this year, we’ll still send you the estimate so you have a real number to plan around.
