We're very excited to be moving forward with construction of an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) in Bristol, CT. We've been working very closely with our client to make sure that this customized attached tiny home fits with all the requirements that her family has discussed with us.

Initial excavation

Pre-Sales Period

Initially, we had a variety of phone calls, video conferences and in-person visits to our client's property, in order to get a better understanding of her plans and needs, so we would be sure that we were covering all aspects.

Contract Signing

Working with Contemporary Tiny Homes is a quick and easy process. All contracts are managed online. There's also online access to three potential lenders, so you can work out the finances within a few business days. Payment is also managed online, although we can also accept checks if needed.

Permit Submission

We took care of all of the permits required to build the tiny home for our customer. The town got back to us with approvals very quickly, within just a few days. It was such an easy process! There's a lot of support in Connecticut to build tiny homes.

Excavation

We're now working with sub-contractors to excavate the land so that we can properly build the attached ADU from the ground up. We can't wait to continue to show our progress, leading to completion of this beautiful new space for the family to enjoy!!
