ADU & DADU Construction in Milton, WA
Milton is a small city, but many properties here have enough space for an ADU project. The homes near Surprise Lake sit on larger lots that can support a detached backyard cottage. Throughout the rest of Milton, attached ADUs and garage conversions are practical options. Milton homeowners are increasingly interested in ADUs for rental income, family housing, and home offices. I have over 20 years in the trades and have been building ADUs across Pierce County since 2018.
Garage conversions in Milton typically run $80,000 to $175,000. A 2-car garage gives you roughly 400 to 450 square feet for a studio or one-bedroom with a full bathroom and kitchenette. For the larger lots near Surprise Lake, a detached ADU in the 400 to 700 square foot range runs $160,000 to $340,000. Milton sits between Puyallup, Edgewood, and Federal Way, which means rental demand is solid. A finished ADU can bring in $1,300 to $1,800 per month. My ADU construction page covers the full process.
Milton handles ADU permits through its building department. Washington's HB 1337 requires all cities to allow at least 2 ADUs per residential lot, and Milton has been updating its code to comply. I handle the full permit package including site plans and utility connections. Some Milton properties near critical areas or steep slopes may need additional review, and I check for that early in the planning process.
