The Lodgewick ADU Fresno Guarantee
When you build an ADU, garage conversion, or home addition in Fresno, you’re committing real money to something you’ll live with for decades. We get that. So our guarantee isn’t a slogan on a truck door. It’s the 365-Day Done Right Promise, and it’s in writing on every single project before the first nail goes in. If the work isn’t right, we come back and make it right. That commitment gets delivered to you as a written guarantee before work begins, not after the check clears. Russ Delmar runs Lodgewick ADU Fresno this way because he’s seen what happens when contractors treat a warranty like fine print. We don’t.
What’s Covered
Here’s what the 365-Day Done Right Promise actually covers when you build with Lodgewick ADU Fresno:
- Workmanship. If any part of our build fails because of how we installed or constructed it within the guarantee period, we return and fix it at no cost to you.
- Written guarantee before work starts. No verbal promises. No “trust me.” You get the guarantee on paper before you pay a dime, so you know exactly what’s covered and for how long.
- On-time arrival. When we give you a window, we show up in that window. The Kingswell Way means saying the price before the work, showing up when we said we would, and not making you burn a vacation day waiting on a no-show.
- A clean job site. We leave your property cleaner than we found it. That’s not extra. That’s standard, and it’s part of what we commit to in writing.
- Honest pricing. The written price we give you before work starts is the price you pay. No change orders for things we should have caught. No surprises at the door.
- Free return visit if the work fails. If something goes wrong within the 365-day period, the return trip is on us. Simple as that.
Our Satisfaction Promise
If something isn’t done right, here’s what happens: you call us, a live person answers, and we schedule the return visit. That’s it. No phone trees, no voicemail loops, no “the warranty department will call you back within 5 to 7 business days.” The 365-Day Done Right Promise exists because Russ knows that a Fresno homeowner’s real fear isn’t the build itself. It’s being stuck with a problem and nobody picking up the phone. Our crews are background-checked and uniformed, so when someone shows up to make things right, you know exactly who’s on your property. And if the fix is covered under the guarantee period, you pay nothing for the return visit. Not a trip charge, not a diagnostic fee. You get the work made right, and you get your weekend back.
We work with established ADU brands like Abodu, Cover, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, and Plant Prefab, plus materials from James Hardie and Tuff Shed. That means when something needs attention, we’re not guessing. We know these systems because we install them regularly. And when a manufacturer component fails, we handle the legwork with the brand so you’re not stuck on hold trying to explain a JADU to someone three states away.
Licensed & Insured Backing
Paperwork is only as good as the company standing behind it. Lodgewick ADU Fresno is licensed and insured, which means two things for you. First, the licensing means we’re accountable to the state of California for how we build. Second, the insurance means that if something goes wrong on your property, you’re not left holding the bag. Those aren’t extras we mention to sound official. They’re the boring, unglamorous foundation that makes the 365-Day Done Right Promise enforceable. A guarantee from an unlicensed operator is a wish. A written guarantee from a licensed, insured builder is a commitment with teeth. We’d rather be held to the second one.
How long does the Lodgewick guarantee last?
The 365-Day Done Right Promise covers our workmanship for a full year after completion. If the work fails within that window, the return visit is free and the fix is on us. The exact terms are written into every project before work begins, so you have the details in your hands before you ever write a check.
What happens if a material or prefab component fails?
We work directly with brands like Abodu, Cover, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, Plant Prefab, and Tuff Shed. If a manufacturer component fails, we coordinate with the brand on your behalf and handle the installation-side repair. You don’t get bounced between a contractor and a manufacturer’s call center. You call us, and we figure out where the problem lives.
Do I have to pay for the return visit if the work fails?
No. If the failure is covered under the 365-Day Done Right Promise, the return visit and the repair are free. That’s the whole point of putting it in writing before you spend anything.
Why does Lodgewick put the guarantee in writing before work starts?
Because verbal promises disappear when there’s a problem. Russ Delmar wants homeowners in Fresno to know exactly what they’re getting before they commit. The Kingswell Way, the operating standard behind Lodgewick ADU Fresno since 2010, is to say the price before the work, show up in the window given, leave the place cleaner than found, put the guarantee in writing, and come back if it fails. A written guarantee forces us to be specific. And specificity is the only kind of promise worth making when you’re spending $150,000 to $400,000 on an ADU in Fresno.
Call (559) 354-0579 to talk through your project and see exactly what the written guarantee will cover. A live person answers, day or night. No phone trees. No bots. Just someone who can tell you what the 365-Day Done Right Promise means for your build.
