I highly recommend L&D Construction. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail are exceptional, and it is clear they build homes with long-term quality in mind. David, the owner, holds incredibly high standards, and that commitment shows in every finish and detail throughout our home.

Justin S, Client

We were so confident in their process and craftsmanship that we partnered with them again for a larger whole-home build with a garage and ADU, which we now call home. David's standards for fit and finish are exceptional, and if something wasn't right, he made sure it was fixed. His pride in the work really shows.

What we appreciated most was their ability to think through how the space would be used over time. The finished ADU feels efficient, adaptable, and well executed. We're extremely happy with the result and would confidently recommend L&D to anyone considering an ADU.

Adam G, Client

★★★★★

As novices in all aspects of homebuilding, we went into the process totally blind. The crew at L&D was able to answer, and sometimes re-answer our many questions. L&D Construction was able to anticipate our needs and always had solutions to any hiccups that came up. We cannot recommend L&D highly enough!

What permits are required for ADU construction in Denver?

ADU permits in Denver require building permits, potential zoning approvals, and utility connections. We handle the entire permitting process, including coordinating with the city and ensuring compliance with Denver's ADU regulations. The timeline typically ranges from 6-12 weeks depending on project complexity.

How long does a typical ADU project take from start to finish?

Most ADU projects take 6-9 months from initial design to completion, including permitting, construction, and final inspections. Ground-up custom homes typically require 8-12 months. We provide detailed timelines during the planning phase and maintain consistent communication throughout construction.

Do you work with homeowners' architects and designers?

Yes, we frequently collaborate with clients' chosen architects, structural engineers, and designers to ensure seamless project execution. We also offer design-build services if you prefer a coordinated approach. Our experience with various design teams helps maintain project alignment and quality standards.

Our focus on early feasibility analysis, realistic budgeting, and clear communication sets us apart. With extensive ADU experience and custom home expertise, we understand Denver's specific challenges. We prioritize long-term quality and think through how spaces will be used over time, not just immediate construction needs.

How do you handle cost overruns and project changes?

We prevent most cost overruns through thorough upfront planning and realistic budgeting. When changes are requested, we provide detailed cost and timeline impacts before proceeding. Our transparent communication ensures you understand all financial implications, and we work to find solutions that maintain both quality and budget integrity.
