Reedley homeowners planning an ADU, garage conversion, or home addition are working with a housing stock most contractors never take the time to understand: 1920s bungalows with detached garages off alleyways, mid-century ranch homes on generous lots, and a hot, dry Valley climate that punishes shortcuts on insulation and HVAC sizing. Lodgewick ADU Builders handles all three jobs across Reedley under The Kingswell Guarantee – a written price before any work begins, a real arrival window, and a written guarantee on every project.

Why Reedley Homes Are Different
Reedley’s housing stock runs from pre-1950s bungalows in the older downtown core to 1960s-80s ranch homes spreading east and south, and the difference matters when you’re adding square footage. Many older homes near downtown Reedley sit on alley-loaded lots, where the detached garage opens onto the rear alley rather than the street. That layout often makes a garage conversion or an “alley ADU” above the garage the cleanest path to more livable space, because the structure already sits at the back of the lot and the alley access handles parking without disturbing the front yard or triggering setback headaches. Homes in Reedley’s historic preservation district face another layer: zoning overlays that govern rooflines, setbacks, and exterior materials, so a pre-fab ADU that flies through permitting in a neighboring city may need design adjustments here. Russ Delmar and our team walk each Reedley project through those overlays before the first drawing is finalized, so homeowners are not surprised mid-permit. Then there is the heat. Central Valley summers regularly push past 100 degrees, which means every ADU we build in Reedley gets insulation and HVAC sizing that is not a code minimum – it is speced for actual July and August conditions. Winter fog is the other seasonal variable; we schedule exterior work around the low-visibility mornings when we can, and we tell homeowners upfront which phases of the job will move slower in December and January.
Our Main Reedley Services
These are the three jobs Reedley homeowners call us about most, and each has its own dedicated page with local pricing, timelines, and what to expect.
Home Addition Contractor in Reedley
Adding a bedroom, a second bathroom, or a family room onto a Reedley ranch home means matching rooflines and stucco to what is already there, then upgrading the existing HVAC to carry the new square footage through Valley summers. We handle the full scope: plans, permits, foundation, framing, and finish. On older downtown properties, additions often need to respect historic-preservation overlays, so we bring the design and materials questions to the city early. Learn more on the Home Addition Contractor in Reedley page, including what a typical Reedley addition costs.
Garage Conversion Contractor in Reedley
Reedley’s older homes often have detached garages off the alley, which makes a garage conversion the fastest way to add a rental unit, a home office, or an in-law suite without building new foundation walls. The existing structure usually needs floor leveling, new electrical service, insulation, and a mini-split or ducted HVAC – and we handle all of it with a written price before work starts. Many of these conversions qualify as accessory dwelling units under California law. See the full scope and pricing on the Garage Conversion Contractor in Reedley page.
ADU Builders in Reedley
A backyard ADU – a small standalone house on your existing lot – is where Reedley’s large lots shine. We build site-framed ADUs and also install pre-fab units from brands like Cover and Boxabl where the lot, budget, and timeline favor factory construction. Either way, the unit is permitted, foundation work is done by our own crews, and the guarantee is in writing. Read the full ADU Builders in Reedley page for pricing ranges and what moves the number up or down on your specific lot.

FAQs About ADU Company in Reedley
Once you accept a written estimate, we typically begin plans and permitting within two to three weeks.

What Reedley Customers Say
"Added a suite for my dad. They walked us through every cost before a hammer swung and stuck to it. The written price is what we paid, no change orders."
- Ingrid Salazar"The ADU came out beautiful and the permitting, which terrified me, was handled start to finish. They kept me updated every week so I was never wondering what was happening."
- Shauna Mills"Good builders. Communication was mostly great, though there was a stretch where I had to chase an update during the permit wait. Once it got going again it moved fast and clean."
- Phil Ostrander
