Can I do it?
What might it cost?
Where do I start?

An ADU for family. A garage you could put to better use. More space, or a home that works better for you.

Before paying for full design, let’s work through what your project could take.

What you receive

A clearer decision before a bigger investment.

  1. 01

    A visit to your property

    Up to 90 minutes to talk through one project idea, observe existing conditions, and take relevant measurements and photos.

  2. 02

    An early budget range

    A planning range with assumptions explained, including likely costs beyond the construction itself.

  3. 03

    A written roadmap

    Practical options, visible constraints, preliminary property-record and planning checks, questions for specialists, and the recommended next phase.

  4. 04

    A walkthrough together

    A 20-minute review of your roadmap, with one consolidated round of clarification.

The questions you may not know to ask yet.

Existing structure, utility needs, access, city requirements, and specialist fees can affect the direction and budget. We flag what is visible and what needs checking. Sometimes the useful answer is to revise the idea or investigate one question before spending more.

What happens after the visit?

Your written roadmap is targeted within five business days of the visit and receipt of needed information. The remaining $425 is due when the roadmap is ready, before our walkthrough.

Drawings, engineering, surveys, permit applications, approvals, and construction are separate. This is a preliminary contractor review, with planning estimates rather than a guaranteed construction price.

Your next step

Tell us what you have in mind.

For homeowners considering an ADU, garage or basement conversion, addition, or major remodel in the Seattle area. We’ll review your request and confirm whether this is a useful starting point.

Submitting requests a conversation. It does not charge you or book a visit.

A few sentences are enough. Please leave out sensitive personal or financial details.

Your estimated construction budget, separate from the $850 review. Unsure? Choose “I need help with my budget.”

Sending this inquiry is free. It does not commit you to the $850 review, book a visit, or require payment. We will review your request and reply by email. You choose whether to proceed after we confirm the scope and payment terms.

Optional Meta ad measurement

Choose whether NABS may count a successfully saved inquiry as a Meta Lead. The event does not include your name, email, city, budget, source label, project description, or inquiry reference. Meta may still receive the technical information described in our privacy notice.

This choice is optional. No selection, or changing your choice to “Do not send” before submitting, means no Meta event.

Spam protection must finish before the form can be sent.

Submitting lets NABS save your request, email you a confirmation, and contact you about this project. No charge or appointment is created. Read our privacy notice.
