Detached accessory dwelling unit — Manchester, NH

What affects the price
Building an ADU involves several moving parts that shape your total budget. The biggest factor is whether you choose a prefabricated unit or a custom build on-site. Site preparation is also significant; if your land requires extensive grading, utility trenching, or foundation work, costs will climb. Your choice of finishes—like kitchen cabinetry, flooring, and siding materials—also shifts the bottom line. We help you navigate these variables to find a setup that fits your property. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
About this service
A detached ADU is a standalone building separate from the main house, such as a backyard cottage or a converted carriage house. Homeowners prefer this style because it provides the most privacy for occupants and keeps the main residence quiet. Since it is a completely separate structure, it often requires independent utility connections and foundation work. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
