Our ADU Construction Process: From Vision to Handover

Transforming your property shouldn’t be a complex puzzle. At Pacd Homes, we’ve refined a proven 5-Step Process designed to navigate Ontario’s evolving municipal regulations while delivering high-perfor-
mance living spaces. Whether you are maximizing your current footprint with an internal conversion, expanding outward with an attached addi-
tion, or building a premium detached garden suite, our workflow remains consistent, transparent, and expert-led.

Every project—from our streamlined pre-engineered models to one-of-a-kind custom builds—follows the same rigorous standards for architectural integrity and site-specific engineering. Explore our four primary ADU paths below to see how our process adapts to your specific goals, property constraints, and investment vision.

4 ADU Types: Privacy Without Compromise

Detached ADU

Attched ADU

Custom ADU

Maximize Your Home’s Footprint: The Internal ADU Advantage

Turn underutilized square footage into a high-value asset without the cost of new construction. While detached builds often require complex
foundations and significant yard space, an Internal Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) leverages your home’s existing structure to create a legal,
self-sufficient residence.

At PACD Homes, we specialize in navigating Ontario’s strict building codes to convert basements, attics, and garages into premium living spaces. Whether you are looking to offset your mortgage with $1,500– $3,000 in monthly rental income or create a private sanctuary for family, our internal conversions offer the fastest, most cost-effective path to increasing your property’s value.

Why Choose an Internal ADU?

  • The Most Affordable Entry Point Starts at ~$80k, utilizing your home’s existing foundation and utilities.
  • Minimal Disruption: Construction is contained within your current footprint—no yard space lost.
  • Legal & Compliant: PACD handles all Ontario Building Code (OBC) requirements, including fire safety, soundproofing, and separate entrances.
  • Flexible Utility: Perfect for multi-generational living (aging parents), a private guest suite, or a professional rental.
