Backyard homes built for
Roseville lots.

What nobody tells Roseville homeowners: the city runs its own electric utility, so your ADU power doesn't go through PG&E like it does two miles away in Citrus Heights. Different application, meter rules, and timeline — so we coordinate Roseville Electric in-house, filing the request the week the structural set goes in so the meter never holds up your final. Water and sewer are City of Roseville too. Under 750 sq ft, state law keeps you on the main home's connections and dodges a five-figure capacity fee; past 750, the city can want its own water meter and a sewer capacity charge. We price that math before design locks, not after you've fallen for a floor plan you can't afford.

The internet's $200–$400 a foot is accurate and useless. In Roseville, a 612 sq ft one-bed detached with mid-grade finishes runs about $247K–$298K all-in for 2025–2026, and a 1,180 sq ft two-bed with upgraded finishes lands closer to $392K–$478K. The biggest swing after size is the old panel: a Roseville Electric upgrade adds roughly $4.5K–$9K when it can't carry a second unit. The income side holds up — a one-bed rents for $1,850–$2,300 a month, a two-bed pushes $2,400–$2,950 near Stoneridge or in newer Fiddyment. You get a fixed-price, itemized proposal after the free walk, with financing if you want it; that number is final, and change orders only happen if you upgrade a finish, never because we missed scope.
