That door makes me extremely uncomfortable.

Permit was only $1,000?

How do you find the “city” sewer line on your property?

Your underground plumbing doesn’t have proper clearances

What's an ADU?

Why did you paint the floor

Wow! This is the channel I watch the most these days. It's filled with a lot of helpful content. You are really smart!! Thank you for sharing the detailed information. I hope I can do as well as you:)

Hey Hektor. After the concrete is poured, when do you take off the wooden panels (forms and stakes)? I've watched a lot of videos but they always skip over it and don't show the whole process of removing the lumber that is used. Thanks

Awesome Hektor! I am planning two SFR+ADU on my land in Florida. Learning how to owner-builder. First time I've seen SFR+ADU+JADU (not allowed in FL yet).

400 in Houston

can't afford $250 K

Can you be my project Manager 😅😊????

how deep was your footing in the front of garage door?

How deep is the required footing for Los Angeles in the previous garage door?

I love these videos, in the permit approval phase right now. Spring Valley, CA

I think you should get a gc license and do it by yourself. You have so much knowledge.

Did you have to fill in a new slab with concrete on top

Thank you ima use this method

Thank you!

Thank you!! From Spring Valley, CA

What about if my garage has about 10 onches above the garage floor

Hi Hektor. I am really enjoying your videos as I start my journey with converting my garage to an ADU. Try booking an appointment with me Natalie, however, your website is not giving me the option. Can you please provide me her contact information? Thank you.

thanks hekk~ btw, you say at the beginning you spent 4,150 on the foundation, but at the end you mention 20k for the form~ the math isn't adding up either on your final budget slide where there's about 4k of the 28k unaccounted for - if you ever get time would you drop the full breakdown in the comments?

I contacted your designer, Natalie, last week through Instagram and no response yet. Is she still in business?

Maybe cheaper up-front but you’re paying for an additional utility service in perpetuity. In Michigan, each utility meter is $8.50 /month just to have the connection. $2000 over 20 years and that doesn’t include any other fixed charges. Will be layout dependent of course, but more utility service isn’t always the answer. Additionally, you have solar PV shown - add more of that and energy storage and maybe it could be cheaper to keep the ADU off-grid. Just need some behavior and expectation adjustment - electricity is no longer an endless buffet!

What’s the plumbers number please

This is great, what is the ROI for you ADU? Can you give us all of the numbers please?

RED GUARD. Thank you HEKTOR

204 a sqft is not bad

I’m getting into real estate this year , I’m glad I found you and if you are willing to teach we can work on a pay to teach me personally as a make my own . I’m going to start this upcoming year and I’m willing to pay you to be hands on and teach me 1 on 1 .

hey my friend, where can i get your front door in California around LA area ?

In Today's society many, many Contractors are Corrupt. Asking $150.00 per Sqft is INSANE!!!

Do you need permits for all that?

great videos. please do more videos like this

Great job. Thank you for sharing this.

Do you have the first framers or the second framers contact info?

Who did you use for plumbing?

Did you have to put plywood on your roof?

Much appreciated

Hektor, you are wonderful! That is a great tip, thank you!

245k is an amazing price! WOW

Most likely there is no water barrier under the concrete floor and Red Guard could also be used there prior to flooring to keep moisture from the ground out.

Hardest part is sewage and drainage , water , gas. Mainly for detached garages

Hi hektor, do you have mario's phone number?

What is this plumbers contact info? I don't see any info online

How will the the finished walls look with the drains coming up the slab rather than the footing???

On the same parcel how can you get another meter installed. Is a joke.

You could have built that for less

Only way to do it. Im about to do one in a few months. Makes no sense to cone from the main house panel.

Hey just want to say these videos are awesome and super informative. Thank you for sharing!
