Florida ADU Specialists
A Second Home in Your Own Backyard
We build ADUs across Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Coral Springs and Broward County — and each city sets its own rules on size, setbacks and parking. An accessory dwelling unit (ADU) is the highest-leverage square footage you can build: a private guest house, a home for aging parents, a studio or office, or a rental income unit. Xpert Construction Group manages the full journey — local zoning rules, design, utilities, permits, and construction built to Florida's hurricane codes.

ADU Construction FAQs
How much does it cost to build an ADU in Florida?
Garage conversions typically start around $60k–$120k; new detached ADUs commonly run $150k–$350k+ depending on size and finishes. We'll scope your project precisely at consultation.
Are ADUs legal in Florida?
Florida law has moved strongly toward allowing ADUs, but each city and county sets its own zoning rules — size limits, setbacks, parking. We check your specific lot before any design work.
Can I rent out my ADU?
In many Florida jurisdictions, yes — long-term rentals are broadly permitted where ADUs are allowed; short-term rules vary by city. We'll flag your local rules early.
How long does an ADU take to build?
Garage conversions can finish in 2–4 months; detached new-construction ADUs typically run 5–9 months including permitting.
