Frequently Asked Questions — Additions & ADUs in Redmond

How much does an ADU cost to build in Redmond?

ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) construction in Redmond typically costs $200,000 to $450,000+ depending on size, type (attached vs. detached), and finishes. A 600-800 sq ft detached ADU averages $250,000-$350,000. Washington state and local incentives may help offset costs.

What are Redmond’s ADU regulations?

Redmond allows both attached and detached ADUs on most single-family lots following Washington’s HB 1337. Requirements include maximum size limits (typically 1,000-1,200 sq ft), setback requirements, and parking provisions. We navigate all local regulations and handle the permitting process for you.

How long does it take to build an ADU in Redmond?

An ADU in Redmond typically takes 6-10 months from permits to completion. The permitting process takes 4-8 weeks, followed by 5-8 months of construction. Attached additions and garage conversions may be completed faster (4-6 months construction) than ground-up detached ADUs.

Can I add a second story addition to my Redmond home?

In most cases, yes. Second-story additions are popular in Redmond for maximizing living space without expanding the footprint. Key considerations include existing foundation capacity, height restrictions, setback requirements, and views. We provide structural assessments to determine feasibility.
