More room for you,

South Shore ADUs designs and builds attached and detached accessory dwelling units for grown kids and their families, aging parents, or whatever the next chapter of your property needs to hold.

Why South Shore ADU's

25+ years building and remodeling across the South Shore and Cape Cod.

South Shore ADUs is built on one idea: your property should be able to grow with your family. From first consultation through final walkthrough, you work with the same team that's been permitting, framing, and finishing these projects for decades.

Every project is fully licensed and insured. Every build comes backed by a workmanship warranty, so the relationship doesn't end when construction is complete.

Who It's For

Every family needs the space differently.

An ADU earns its keep in a lot of ways.
Here's where most of our clients start.

Visiting Family

Give your grown children - spouse, kids, and all - a place that's genuinely theirs when they come home for the summer, or for good.

Aging Parents

Keep the people who raised you close by, with real privacy and independence built into the layout - not an afterthought.

Studio or Office

Separate the workday from the living room, or give a trade, hobby, or business the dedicated square footage it deserves.

Long-Term Value

Add living space and equity that grows with your family - and holds its value long after the last box is unpacked.

Services

Detached, Attached, & Remodels
Built to fit your lot & lifestyle.

We'll walk your property and help you decide which structures actually fit before a single drawing is made.

Detached ADU

A freestanding structure elsewhere on your property. Maximum privacy for both households, a fully separate entrance, and the most flexible floor plan.

  • Complete independence for occupants
  • Can be designed as: single-story, single-story with a loft, two-story
  • With or without a basement
  • Doubles as future rental or guest house

Attached ADU

A traditional extension to your home, designed for more privacy - with the option to include interior access between the primary home and the ADU.

  • Independence with connecton
  • Shares a wall, roofline, or foundation with the primary home
  • Optional interior connection
  • Often the faster path through permitting

Remodel ADU

Turn space you already have into a fully livable apartment - no new footprint required.

  • Converts existing basement or garage space
  • Lower site work than new construction
  • Makes use of space you're already paying to heat and condition
Process

From first walk-through to move-in.

Four stages, one point of contact throughout.

01

Consultation & Site Walk

We assess your lot, local zoning, and what's realistic for your goals. No pressure, no cost.

02

Design & Permitting

We handle drawings and town permitting, keeping you informed at every step.

03

Construction

25+ years of build experience means fewer surprises and a schedule you can plan around.

04

Walkthrough & Warranty

A final walkthrough together, then a warranty that backs the work after we've left.

Materials & Construction

Built to a standard, not a budget.

Every ADU goes up the same way regardless of model or lot: sourced to last and look great through South Shore winters for years to come.

Spec

Premium Materials

We don't spec builder-grade to hit a price. Envelope and finish materials are chosen to hold up for decades, not just pass inspection.

  • Premium framing lumber
  • Architectural-grade shingle roofing
  • Top quality siding
  • High-performance, low-e windows
Crew

Professional Construction

Licensed, insured builders run the job site. Every phase gets a scheduled inspection before the next one starts.

  • Fully licensed and insured construction team
  • Permitting and code compliance handled start to finish
  • Staged inspections at foundation, framing, MEP, and final walkthrough
  • A single point of contact tracking your build
Guarantee

Warrantied Work

Coverage doesn't end at the final invoice. Structural and workmanship issues are ours to fix, and manufacturer warranties pass straight to you.

  • Structural workmanship warranty on every build
  • Manufacturer warranties on roofing, siding, and windows pass through to you
  • Documented punch-list close-out before handoff
  • A direct line back to us if anything needs attention
Client Stories

What customers are saying.

Hear from families across the South Shore and Cape Cod who built with us.

Communication and Accountability

“Aside from Rob’s extraordinary communication practices; I would say it's his accountability that sets him apart from other contractors. Rob was always ready to assume total responsibility for any problem or issue that came up during our project; it's just not something you see every day as a rule from contractors. On top of that the work was exceptional and he didn't kill us with extras.”

Howard S. — Plymouth
We Have Had Rob and His Team Back for Several Major Projects

“Rob and his team first did a project for us in Mashpee in 2015. We have since had him back to work on our other properties in Abington and Rockland, and last fall Rob’s team transformed our daughter’s home in Weymouth into a modern marvel; while keeping to his promises on schedule and budget; despite the many changes we asked of him. Don’t lose his number!”

Danny H — Rockland
Boutique Service

“Rob has been a refreshing change from other contractors; including going above and beyond in completing my ADU this Summer. Rob actually took me shopping for tile, countertops, bath fixtures, flooring, and cabinets. We made several trips; I think we did three such trips. Rob says he tries to treat each customer like they are his mother or his sisters. When he says that; you can believe him. It's very evident that not only does he want to do a nice job on the project, but he wants to treat his clients like family. Thanks Rob!”

Marilyn — Middleboro
Repeat Multiple Projects

“We had Rob complete a project for us; adding 700 square feet to our existing home in South Weymouth in January of 2025, and we loved the process and final product. We think Rob’s communication skill is exceptional! He always answers his phone! Later that same year we had a catastrophic flooring problem that required another 100,000+ in renovations as we lost our kitchen, two bathrooms and all of the flooring to the catastrophe. We didn't hesitate to call Rob and we are so glad he was able to help us and help quickly! Thanks to Rob our original home is brand new again and we still have the additional space that he added which we love!”
