• How To Build an ADU
Here are the details of underfloor framing and plumbing, along with rough costs. Glad to pass inspection and keep moving along! Thanks Pete & Rees for the framing help, Andy and Brandon for a quick plumb job and Brian for keeping us up to par with the code.
Thank you for your emails, DM, comments and calls asking for longer videos with more detail. I plan to share progress every week as we build in real time.
Look for property value others can not see. Be creative, consider land hacking.
Follow along for all things ADU. This really is the most affordable housing option in most cases.
I always tell people to consume the free information out there, it just takes more time. Most of what I do is open source and free for the taking. If you need one-on-one time with me, you can schedule a call at thatADUguy.com.

It's super interesting to see the buildings coming together over the weeks! Thanks for the update.
You bet! Thanks for the view!
My job has been 3 times this expensive for all rough trades material and labor. You relationships and planning are saving you thousands $$$$
For sure! Thats why I always say it's a relationship business
I so want to learn how to do this , I'm ready to get out of the trucking life .
I hear you, it must be hard to live on the road.
I enjoyed a little Sade music in the background
Nice! Yes, PK plays easy going love songs all day long.
So awesome Derek, love following along and learning the whole way through!
Hey Hudson! Thanks dude.
love your videos, thank you for share your knowledge!
Love your videos!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much Pat, we hope they bring you value!
Great video. Thanks
You're welcome!
Great videos
Thanks for the views and comments !!
Nice work and not cutting corners 👍
Thanks 👍
Hard to tell from the video, but did the plumber chip away or cut into the stem wall to be able to get the sink drain in?
Chiped it out. When the stemwall is green (first week or so after pour) a hammer will do the trick. Older concrete likes a masonry blade and jack hammer.
Another very informative viideo! Thank you! Quick question - do you need a GC in Oregon or you can be owner - builder? Just to mention - in NY you must have a licensed GC in order to get permits approved.
If you own the home, you can self manage the whole project.
@ThatADUGuy Nice! This way you can save at least 20-25% of the cost. Unfortunately, not in NY.
Hey Derek, awesome videos! Thanks for putting these out. I’m currently looking to build a 500SQFT ADU in Orlando Fl. I’m getting quotes as hi as 200000. Is there any advice you’d give someone to finding an honest and ethical GC?

Hi there Derek, thanks for sharing these great tips, wonderful job!... quick question what is the layer of membrane you placed between the bottom of the PTS and concrete stem wall? Thanks
Sill sealer. It is an 8" wide foam roll that helps create an air tight seal under the bottom plate.
My area plumbing seems to be the most expensive labor cost has that been your experience
No, second to sparky
Thanks Derek for sharing I’m loving these detailed vids! Can you share any tips on how you are able to finance these builds?
Here in Socal when the banks do comparative market analysis most ADUs are only valued at 75K at the most according to my broker, and will only loan up to whatever CMA says it’s worth.
I’m in SoCal as well, CALHFA had state funds to cover up to 40K of the soft costs, plans,permits and fees etc. But I think that money has all been distributed for now.
Will touch on that for sure!!
When fastening the hangers to the concrete stem wall, do you use the same nails as you did got the hanger into the sill plate?
Great question. There are no nails into the concrete. Just teco nails into the PT sillplate, then the hangers just hand down over the stemwall.
@@ThatADUGuy doesn't that put a lot of stress in the sill plate alone? Water penetration could rot the sill and the stem wall wouldn't provide any additional support? (im dealing with a sagging floor in an adu and trying to learn how to make it bulletproof for the future)
@@a104917It is a solid system. The 1 1/8" plywood subfloor goes over the top flanges of the hangers, locking them in.
Is the tracer wire required on the mains and drains?
Yes
Great looking project! I'm curious why you guys chose to do a crawlspace instead of a slab when your lot is so level?
Great question. Expansive soil, 3% slope, better insulation, better access to water and drain lines, accepts hardwoods floors way better and tradition. I do liky slab on grade for an age in place design.
@@ThatADUGuy that makes sense! Thanks for the response.
@@tylermundy7985 anytime
Inspector didn't require epoxy set anchor bolt ?
This missing bolt was not called, I just did it because it was so close. The distance from j bolt in concrete to end of board was 13". Probably would not have been called, but I put the 6" expanding holddown bolt in for info. If it was a missing HD holddown that was engineered, that would have been done with allthread and expoxy for sure.
@@ThatADUGuy great job.
If I wanted to do a new construction build on a new lot purchase how would I be able to see the permitting costs associated with the build? I’ve heard outlandish numbers in my area which has kind of been holding me back.
I would call the city and a local builder and as them, based on your proposed sf and quality of finishes.
@@ThatADUGuy will do thank you. & I also have one more question I’ve been having problems with. I have a personal residential remodel I’m working on here in california & the project has been stuck for months due to permitting issues. We had opened the wall between the kitchen and living room with a new PSL beam installed but the designer never mentioned it was a low bearing wall to the city so inspector called it out & paused work until engineer can provide plans for the PSL beam install. Engineer has been impossible to reach but he’s still on the ongoing permit. Not sure what route to go next. Hoping to get a new engineer for the project but not sure if I’ll need an entirely new permit.
The property also has a un permitted ADU in the back that I’ll be looking to legalize but I want to get this main home competed first which has been quite the headache thus far.
@@831lance I would call the lumber yard were the beam came from. Many have in house beam cal software that will work for your permit.
@@831lance one battle at a time. Great to hear it has an ADU though!!
16# center better than 24#
With 6500 series BCIs and 1 1/8" plywood we get a 5 start floor.
Are flip flops part of your system?
If it's over 100° 😂😂😂😂 No, closed toe shoes are a must.
Who wears nail bags and flip flops.
The retired safety officer turned ski bum 😂😂
