ClearLicence standing

No ADU permits are on file under this licence in the cities we cover. Most California cities do not publish the contractor's name on a building permit, so this usually reflects what a city discloses rather than what a builder has built. Ask them directly for recent addresses and permit numbers you can look up.

Typical timeline
Claims vary: 6–12 months average from planning/permitting through final walkthrough in the Bay Area guide; a San Jose FAQ says 1–2 years for completion. Published stages include 1–3 months for design, 2–4 months for permitting and 4–6 months for construction, so permitting is included in the end-to-end estimate. No contract-specific duration is stated.

ADU Standards does not issue zoning determinations and does not endorse contractors. Licence details are from the California Contractors State License Board, checked 2026-08-15. A city that pre-approves a plan has vetted the plan, not the builder. Always confirm licence standing at cslb.ca.gov before you sign anything.
