Build Process
A modern, on‑site build with clean staging, precise detailing, and predictable timelines — the same discipline we apply to custom homes.
We confirm setbacks, trees, utility routes and access, then prepare submittals for planning and building. Structural notes and Title 24 energy documentation included where required.
Cedar + lap siding options, black‑finish Low‑E glazing, and crisp roof lines. Level‑5 drywall interiors with recessed lighting and premium flooring.
Compact crews, tidy staging, and milestone tracking. Typical Apex timelines run 4–8 weeks after design sign‑off, depending on access and finishes.
We can pre‑plan bath/kitchenette locations, utility routes, and rough‑ins so a future conversion to a full ADU is straightforward.
We bring the same architectural precision and site discipline from our custom home projects to every Apex Pod. You get premium detailing, predictable schedules, and a tidy site.
An Apex Pod is a luxury studio envelope built on‑site with a modern lean‑to profile. It can be ADU‑ready with planned rough‑ins and utility routes. A full ADU includes bathroom, kitchen, and full code compliance from day one.
