GBLove my Abodu I highly recommend this company. Absolutely love the final product: my Abodu One is a beautiful home that fits in my backyard. Working with them was a pleasant experience and I would do it again if I could. The customer service was fantastic from start to finish: their concierge style approach made a potentially daunting construction project feel like fun.

GBRun as far away as possible Run as far away as possible. We're in month fourteen of what was promised to be a six month install of an Abodu studio. Factory delays. Construction delays. Permit delays. Delays because their employees just went on vacation. We've had multiple project managers. Unexpected additional expenses. A portapotty in our front yard for five months. It takes weeks to get a clear answer on anything. And there's no end in sight. It's a good looking house, but in our experience, Abodu has no idea how to put it in your yard on time and on budget. UPDATE, responding to Abodu's reply: I can't believe I'm getting a response to my bad review before I get a response to my questions about our ongoing project, but here we are. That said, I appreciate the sympathy. Everyone at Abodu has been sympathetic when I can actually get in touch with them. But at every step, the company as a whole has followed up on that sympathy with additional missed deadlines. My review is not based on a single failure, but on a consistent chain of failures and poor communication about where the project is at. In month 14 of a 6 month project, I should be hearing from Abodu every week about what's being done. I even said as much, multiple times, to no avail. I don't care that the General Manager has "been in touch with me." He has. He's nice! I care what he's doing, and this week I have no idea. Everyone at Abodu seems to think that telling me, "We're giving this our highest level of attention" is a comforting sentence without any need for elaboration, and at this point in the project, it's not. Because we've been hearing that phrase since last November, and the project has only been delayed further. I went with Abodu because I saw a lot of good reviews of the company coming out of Northern California. But simply put, Abodu has been incapable of delivering our Los Angeles home on anything close to their promised deadline, and is now more responsive to my bad reviews than to my questions about our ongoing project. And to your sign off, "if there's anything else we can do to address your concerns," yes, there is! We have multiple unanswered messages (written, I will grant you, with increasing levels of frustration and anger) in your app, right now. And further back in the app, at least three specific issues your team was going to "get back to us on." This is still such a fixable problem, outside of permit delays. Communicate. Do the things you say you're going to do, instead of paying lip service and then going radio silent and then explaining you have "hundreds of projects."

GBA great company for ADUs I choose Abodu to build and install my ADU after an extensive search of other home builders in my area ...and I have not regrets! They were professional, punctual, and responsive. They delivered a quality home on time and within budget. And their after-sales support was amazing. I highly recommend them

GBAbodu did an excellent job on our… Abodu did an excellent job on our family's ADU project. Now that we're all moved in we couldn't be happier with the end result. The design is fantastic, quality is top notch. Our process was pretty smooth as far as construction goes (the entire project took about 8 months), and they were on top of everything along the way. We'd happily work with them again given the chance!

GBI've been doing the site work for ADU's I've been doing the site work for modular ADU's for the past 3.5 years throughout California, New Mexico and Utah. I have been working with About for the past couple months and we just landed our first one with them this week and I have to say I'm impressed so far. Their plans and system are tight and the quality of the unit upon arrival was some of the best I've seen from other factories. There is a lot to the process of getting an ADU approved and Abodu from what I have seen so far has it down.
