Custom ADU & Additions
Detached ADUs, room additions, garage conversions, and JADUs — permitted, engineered, and built to estate standards.
America's most exclusive zip code. Discreet, white-glove contracting for ultra-luxury estates and legacy Peninsula properties.
California's ADU laws have unlocked enormous property value, and JMG builds accessory dwelling units and home additions that match the main residence — not prefab afterthoughts. From Los Altos to San Ramon, our ADUs and additions command premium rents and appraisals.
In Atherton and across San Mateo County, JMG delivers adus & additions under California Contractor's License #1007864 — permitted, inspected, and personally overseen by owner Jerry Guinn. We manage the entire lifecycle: feasibility, design, permitting, utilities, and construction, delivering turnkey units and seamless additions ready for family or income.
Atherton builds answer to the Town's Building Department on Station Lane — and to the heritage-tree ordinance that shapes where additions, ADUs, and driveways can land on the town's one-acre estate lots. We plan around protected oaks, manage design review, and deliver the discreet, high-touch project management Lindenwood and West Atherton estates expect.
