Contact Ellery ADU Studio Santa Clarita - Free ADU Estimate in Santa Clarita
Call (747) 294-4817 to schedule your free ADU estimate in Santa Clarita. When you reach us, you’ll speak with a live coordinator who connects you directly with our local team - no hard sell, no pressure, just a straightforward conversation about your property and what an ADU could look like. We’ll book your free on-site assessment, often with same-week availability.
What Happens When You Call
Step 1: We answer and listen. A live coordinator picks up during our operating hours, takes your basic information, and connects you with our Santa Clarita team. We’ll ask about your property address, your goals for the ADU, and any timeline you’re working toward.
Step 2: We schedule your free assessment. We visit your Santa Clarita property to measure, photograph, and evaluate site conditions - setbacks, utility access, slope, existing structures. This takes about 45 minutes, and you receive a copy of our site notes within 24 hours.
Step 3: You get a written, line-item estimate. Within a few days, we deliver a fixed-price proposal covering design, permits, and construction. Clause 1 of the Haven Standard requires every price in writing before anyone starts - no verbal ballparks, no “we’ll figure it out later.”
Step 4: We build to the drawings. Once you approve, we handle the permit set, submit to the city of Santa Clarita, and build under a single contract with one point of accountability. Photos and progress readings are logged to your project file at every phase.
Why Santa Clarita Homeowners Call Us First
- Local response time. Our team is based in Santa Clarita, not dispatched from Los Angeles or the Valley. That means we can typically assess properties in Canyon Country, Valencia, or Saugus within a few days of your call, and we’re familiar with the specific slope and soil conditions that affect ADU foundations in this area.
- Required licensing and insurance. Every pro working under our name is required to hold the license and insurance California requires for their trade, and we verify it before they step on your property. License numbers are provided in your written estimate for your records.
- Transparent, fixed pricing. Your written estimate specifies every line item - design hours, permit fees, materials, labor, finish selections - with a total that does not change unless you change the scope. No hidden fees for Santa Clarita plan check revisions, no surprise charges when we hit sandy soil in the foothills.
- The Haven Standard, in writing. Every ADU job is backed by our documented guarantee: the price you approve is the price you pay, the schedule we commit to is the schedule we keep, and the work is photographed and logged at every phase. You receive the evidence, not just our word.
Our Service Area Around Santa Clarita
We design and build ADUs throughout Santa Clarita proper - Valencia, Canyon Country, Saugus, Newhall - and travel regularly to neighboring communities. Typical response times: Stevenson Ranch and Castaic within 2-3 days; Sylmar, San Fernando, and Granada Hills within 3-4 days; Porter Ranch, Mission Hills, Northridge, Chatsworth, Panorama City, and Winnetka within 4-5 days. If you’re outside these areas but within Los Angeles County, call anyway - we often travel farther for properties with good ADU potential, and we’ll tell you honestly if your location works for our team.
Frequently Asked Questions - Booking & Estimates
Yes. The on-site assessment and written estimate cost nothing and carry no obligation. We believe Clause 1 of the Haven Standard - a written price before work starts - begins with the estimate itself. Call (747) 294-4817 to schedule yours.
We typically schedule assessments within 3-5 business days for Santa Clarita addresses, sometimes sooner depending on current project load. We do not overbook, because arriving on schedule - Haven Value “A” - matters more to us than padding the calendar. Call (747) 294-4817 to check this week’s availability.
No. Our standard operating hours extend until 8:00 PM on weekdays and 7:00 PM on weekends, and assessments scheduled within these hours are priced the same. We do not offer after-hours emergency assessments - ADU planning is a deliberate process, not an emergency service - but our hours accommodate most working schedules without surcharges.
Your property address, a rough idea of where you’d place the ADU (garage conversion, backyard new build, above an existing structure), and any timeline pressures - refinancing deadlines, family moves, rental income goals. If you have a recent survey or property plot, mention it; if not, we’ll handle that during our assessment. The call takes about ten minutes. Call (747) 294-4817 when you’re ready.
We accept personal checks, wire transfers, and major credit cards. For ADU projects, payment is typically structured in milestones tied to permit approval, foundation completion, framing, and final inspection - each documented with photos and sign-off before the next invoice. Your written estimate specifies the exact schedule. Call (747) 294-4817 to discuss what works for your situation.

No pressure, no obligation. We’ll answer your questions, schedule your free assessment, and send you home with a written estimate you can compare against any other bid. That’s the Haven Standard, and it’s how we’ve approached every one of the 900+ ADUs we’ve designed, permitted, and built since 2015.
