We had a fabulous experience with Nailed It Remodeling on all fronts! They did quality work replacing an entire wall of our house including rotted framing, drywall, clapboard, drainage system, window, and doors. They completed the project on time, accommodated our scheduling needs, and kept us looped in with accurate, detailed information at every step of the way. We couldn't be happier with the work and process and look forward to hiring them again!

Expert Junior ADU Construction in Alameda County, CA
A Junior ADU, or JADU, converts existing space inside your home into a self-contained living unit of up to 500 square feet. Nailed It Remodeling Inc handles the full scope of that work for Alameda County homeowners. We assess your existing floor plan, identify usable space such as a spare bedroom, attached garage, or basement area, and build out a unit with a kitchenette, separate entrance, and the finishes you choose. In Alameda County, JADUs are permitted on owner-occupied single-family properties in any zone that allows residential use. Because the work stays within your existing structure, you avoid the footprint and setback challenges that come with new detached construction. That matters on the smaller lots common across unincorporated areas like Castro Valley, Cherryland, and Ashland. A finished JADU adds a private space for a family member, a long-term rental unit, or a dedicated home office. Call Nailed It Remodeling Inc to talk through what your floor plan can support.
