Companion Units
Building a companion unit, granny-flat, or guest house house just got a lot easier in San Diego!
Companion Units can be a great source of rental income for those who want to live in one space and rent the other. Or maybe you have aging parents you’d like to keep close or kids that are ready to move out of the main house, but not ready to take on the high cost of renting in San Diego. Armstrong Builders can help.
As we do for any addition or remodel, we offer you full service from conception to completion. We help you design, permit, and build the right solution!

CONSTRUCTION REGULATION CHANGE
Due to 2018 changes in the local housing codes, you’ve never been in a better position to add an additional dwelling space to your property! In San Diego, you can build up to 1200 square feet or 50% of the primary residence’s size, whichever is less. This can be an attached or detached addition, a garage conversion, or a remodel of existing space.

IT STARTS WITH GREAT DESIGN
You want a homebuilder with decades of experience in designing and building efficient and beautiful spaces. Maximizing views, natural light and other features while minimizing the footprint are design options we explore early in the process. Sometimes a solution is obvious, but more often than not, it isn’t. So we find that we present creative ideas our clients hadn’t considered before they came to us.

A GREAT CONSTRUCTION EXPERIENCE
From feasibility, to design, permitting, and construction, know that you can rely on our professional team of designers, project managers, and subcontractors to build only the highest quality construction for your companion unit!
As a Design-Build contractor we play a big role in ensuring your project is executed perfectly. Success comes from understanding your vision, applying the right design, then expertly managing the project through to completion.

WHAT’S INCLUDED
As the general contractor we provide the project design, establish the total project budget, we manage all of the project construction, and project permitting. We make building a second unit easy!
