BASEMENTS

Basements are often overlooked, but here at Portland ADU we see them as an opportunity. We have a proven approach to resolving stairway, exterior entry, egress, headspace conflicts, HVAC ducting, utility location, and floor leveling issues and to make gorgeous basement apartments or additional living spaces that are warm and bright. Basements are also one of the most economical paths to make a rental or additional living space under your home often coming in at 60% of the cost of building a ground up detached ADU.

FULLY PERMITTED TINY HOUSE HOOKUPS

Did you know that every Portland home is allowed one tiny house hookup to rent for income generation?


We meet with you to determine your needs, scope sewer lines (marking their surface path and depth), run the correct utilities to your tiny house site to have a full or partial hookup as you require. We use only code compliant elements and techniques so your Tiny House on Wheels rental spot can be fully permitted by the city of Portland through the Field Issuance Remodel program.

RESTORATION

We offer water and fire damage demolition and restoration services with a focus on design and upgrading for every project within your insurance coverage. When disaster strikes, whether it’s water damage, mold, or fire, you don’t just want your home patched up, you want it restored with intention and quality.

Frequently asked questions

Including plans and permits, most tend to cost between $250k and $300k depending on the design, the access to the site, what kind of preparation is required and the existing electrical and waste line conditions. Our finishes are far above average in aesthetics and durability. Most of our Additional Dwelling Units include heated floors, completely tiled bathrooms and high efficiency HVAC components.

If the remodeling work is isolated to just re-tiling an existing shower enclosure, It’s going to run about 6K. Full remodel of the aesthetic qualities of the bathroom (New vanity, new sink, new shower, new toilet, new flooring) will be a minimum of 25k depending on what the choices are.  Framing changes, vaulting (skylights), built-ins, pocket doors, steam showers, custom glass instead of curtains, custom vanities, window changes, dry rot repair, heated floors all add to costing and can push things upwards of 50k.

Many of our kitchen remodels include a new layout, custom cabinets, quartz countertops, tiled backsplashes and often some vaulted elements and tend to run anywhere between $50k and $100k depending on how much structural work is required and the price point of appliances, cabinetry and tile.

Assuming that your basement has adequate head height, most basement conversions into additional living space with kitchen and bath including a new exterior entrance tend to cost around 150k. In doing so we strive to make them warm (heated floor), dry, and extremely luminous with as much natural light as possible.

No! We are full service and have our own in-house designer, engineer and we secure the permits for you. We are also able to work with clients who have their own pre-existing architectural plans, architect or permits.
