Thinking About an ADU, Home Addition, or Remodel in San Diego? Here’s What You Need to Know

Preview

As housing costs continue to rise and space becomes more valuable, more homeowners in San Diego are turning to smart upgrades like ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units), home additions, and full home remodeling projects. Whether you're looking to generate rental income, create space for extended family, or simply upgrade your lifestyle, Romex Design is here to guide you from concept to construction.

Here’s what you need to consider—and how Romex Design makes the process easier, more efficient, and stress-free.

Why Build an ADU in San Diego?

San Diego has become one of California’s most ADU-friendly cities, thanks to updated zoning regulations and streamlined permit processes. Building an ADU in San Diego is an ideal way to:

  • Add long-term property value

  • Create a rental unit or guest house

  • Provide independent living space for family

  • Maximize unused yard or garage space

At Romex Design, we specialize in designing functional, code-compliant ADUs that fit your lot, lifestyle, and budget. We also help you navigate permitting, Title 24 requirements, and builder connections, all in one place.
