“While it might be cheaper to buy a tiny home, there are creative companies that are optimizing the design-build process to make sure that the clients looking for tiny homes get the highest quality solution, and is indeed your 'forever home,' Punit Chugh, cofounder, says.”

“Val Florio, a registered architect in Sag Harbor who has recommended BuildLabs homes to a number of his clients, says ‘This product differs in every way — quality of the materials, efficiency and a highly precise fabrication method. Everything is built indoors, so it arrives at the job site perfect. It is within millimeters of being exact.’”

“’We’re anything but modular,’ says cofounder Anjali Gupta. Instead, the design-build company relies on a unique on-site, off-site construction methodology, where it manufactures a bulk of its materials and foundational elements at its precision facility in Germany.”

Frequently asked questions

Here we cover the BuildLabs approach to designing ADUs of all types, local building codes, permitting, foundations, plumbing, and more.

What is an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)?

An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a secondary, self-contained living space located on the same lot as a primary residence. It can be a detached unit, an attached unit, or even a conversion of existing space such as a garage or basement. ADUs are designed to provide additional living space for family members, guests, or tenants.

Why should I consider building an ADU with BuildLabs?

BuildLabs offers specialized expertise in designing and constructing high-quality ADUs that blend seamlessly with your existing property. Our focus on luxury, craftsmanship, and attention to detail ensures that your ADU will meet your needs and complement the style of your primary residence.

What are the benefits of having an ADU on my property?

ADUs provide a range of benefits, including increased property value, additional rental income, and flexible living arrangements for family members or guests. They also offer the convenience of having extra space without the need to relocate.

What are the sizing requirements for building an attached or detached ADU?

Your assigned project manager will help guide you through the permitting and design requirements based on local town rules. For the town of East Hampton, for example: A detached affordable accessory apartment shall be a minimum of 300 square feet and a maximum of 600 square feet. An attached affordable accessory apartment shall be a minimum of 300 square feet and a maximum of 50% of the gross floor area of the principal dwelling unit not to exceed 1,200 square feet.

What is the process for building an ADU with BuildLabs?

Our process starts with a consultation to understand your vision and requirements. We offer guidance on permitting. Our full-service approach ensures a smooth and efficient experience, from the initial concept to the completion of your ADU.

Are there specific regulations or permits required for building an ADU in the Hamptons?

Yes, building an ADU involves adhering to local zoning laws and obtaining the necessary permits. BuildLabs is well-versed in Hamptons regulations and will manage all the legal and administrative aspects of your project to ensure compliance and a hassle-free process.

How long does it take to build an ADU?

The timeline for building an ADU can vary based on the complexity of the design, size of the unit, and local permitting processes. On average, the project can take roughly 8 weeks. BuildLabs will provide you with a detailed timeline and keep you informed throughout the construction process.

Can BuildLabs help with the design of my ADU?

Absolutely. Our design team will work closely with you to create a customized ADU that fits your needs and complements your existing property. From layout and aesthetics to functionality and finishes, we ensure every detail aligns with your vision.

How much does it cost to build an ADU?

The cost of building an ADU varies depending on factors such as size, design, materials, and site conditions. BuildLabs will provide a comprehensive estimate based on your specific requirements and budget. We strive to offer transparent pricing and work within your financial parameters.
