Contact Ellery ADU Studio Simi Valley - Free ADU Estimate in Simi Valley
Call us at (820) 444-6584 to schedule your free ADU estimate in Simi Valley. When you reach us, a live coordinator will connect you with our local team. There’s no hard sell, no deposit required to book the assessment, and we can usually get to your property within a few days. We’ll walk your site, talk through what you want to build, and leave you with a written, line-item quote you can compare.
What Happens When You Call
Step 1: We answer and listen. A live coordinator picks up, takes your address in Simi Valley or nearby, and asks what you’re trying to solve. Need rental income? A home office? Space for family? We’ll note it. You’ll get a rough sense of whether your project fits our design-build scope before we schedule anything.
Step 2: We schedule a site assessment. We send a project lead to your property, not a salesperson. They’ll measure your lot, check setbacks against Simi Valley’s zoning, look at utility access, and flag anything that could affect the permit timeline. You’ll get a real arrival window and a text when they’re on the way. That’s Haven Standard Clause 2.
Step 3: You receive a written estimate. Within 48 hours of the visit, we deliver a flat-price proposal with every line item visible: design, permit set, site prep, foundation, structure, finishes, and utility tie-ins. No aggregate lump sums. If something’s optional, we say so. Clause 1: Have it in writing.
Step 4: We build to the drawings. Once you sign, the same team that measured your lot handles the design, pulls the permit, and manages construction. One contract, one price, one phone number. We photograph and document every phase. Clause 4: Evidence on every job.
Why Simi Valley Homeowners Call Us First

- We’re local to the valley. Our project leads live and work in Ventura County, so we know Simi Valley’s specific ADU zoning, the hillside grading requirements in the northern neighborhoods, and how the city’s planning department handles the queue. That local knowledge saves weeks on permits.
- Every pro is required to hold proper coverage. Every contractor working under our name is required to carry the license and insurance California requires for residential construction. We verify it before they step on your property. License numbers are on your written estimate. Clause 3: Verified crews.
- The price on the page is the price you pay. Our written estimate is a fixed-price contract. If we missed something in our site assessment, that’s our cost, not yours. No change orders unless you add scope. No “while we’re in here” upsells at your door. Clause 5: No surprises.
- We document everything. You get photos of site conditions before we start, permit approval paperwork, progress updates with images, and a final walkthrough record. If you sell the house later, you have a file proving the work was permitted and built to code.

Frequently Asked Questions - Booking & Estimates

Yes. The site assessment and written estimate cost nothing and obligate you to nothing. We believe you can’t make a six-figure decision without a real number in hand, so we put one there before you pay anything. Call (820) 444-6584 to schedule yours.
We can usually schedule a site assessment within one to three days for properties in Simi Valley proper. Moorpark and Thousand Oaks are typically two to four days. We’ll give you a specific date and arrival window when you call.
No. Our site assessment fee is the same regardless of when we schedule it. We know many Simi Valley homeowners work in LA or the Valley and can’t meet mid-day Tuesday. We’ll find a time that works.
Your address, a rough idea of your budget range, and what you’re trying to build. If you have a survey or plot plan, great, but it’s not required. We’ll pull the parcel data and check zoning before we arrive. The call takes five to ten minutes.
We accept check, wire transfer, and major credit cards. Payment is structured in milestones tied to permit approval, foundation completion, and final walkthrough, not large upfront deposits. The schedule is spelled out in your written contract. Call (820) 444-6584 and we’ll walk through it.
