Add a Guest House or In-Law Suite

Accessory dwelling unit construction in Odessa for flexible living space, rental income, or long-term property value.

You need space for an aging parent, a home office, or a rental unit that generates income, but adding onto your main house does not work with your lot layout or household needs. An accessory dwelling unit provides a separate structure with its own entrance, kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping area, built on your property in Odessa with the same attention to code and quality as a primary residence. NCG Construction Group, LLC handles site assessment, permitting, zoning coordination, and construction from foundation to final walkthrough, so you get a finished unit that meets local building standards and fits your property.

The project begins with a review of your lot to confirm setbacks, utility access, and drainage requirements. Depending on your goals, the unit can be a detached backyard structure, a converted garage, or an addition built to maintain privacy from the main house. The build includes foundation work, framing, exterior finishes, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and interior buildout with kitchen cabinets, bathroom fixtures, and flooring. All work is permitted and inspected to meet Florida building codes.

What Gets Built During an ADU Project

Construction starts with site preparation, which includes clearing vegetation, grading for drainage, and laying the foundation. In Odessa, where soil conditions and flood zones vary, the foundation type is selected based on your lot and local code requirements. Utilities are extended from the main house or tapped into existing lines, and all connections are inspected before framing begins. You finalize the floor plan, exterior finishes, and interior materials before construction starts, so the build proceeds without delays.

Once framing is complete, you see the layout take shape with walls, windows, and roof structure in place. Plumbing, electrical, and HVAC are roughed in and inspected before insulation and drywall go up. Interior finishes include flooring, cabinetry, countertops, and bathroom fixtures that match the quality of your main residence. The unit is wired for its own breaker panel, and appliances are installed and tested before final walkthrough.

Exterior finishes are selected to complement your main house, and siding, roofing, and trim are installed to resist Florida weather. The unit includes its own HVAC system, water heater, and ventilation to operate independently. Final inspections confirm the structure meets code, and you receive documentation for resale or rental use. The finished unit provides private living space with full amenities, separated from the main house to maintain comfort and independence for both households.

What utilities does the ADU need?
