Why homeowners choose H&A
It usually does. You are asked to commit to six figures of construction in your own back yard, based on a quote, a drawing and a handshake, and to hope the finish level in your head matches the one in theirs. We built our company so you never have to guess.
Our design center holds the actual cabinetry, tile, stone, flooring and fixtures. You choose your ADU with your hands, in a room, not from a mood board.
You work directly with the licensed general contractor who carries the permit, not a commission-paid salesperson who hands you off after signing.
Design, engineering, plans, permits, inspections and construction sit with one team. Nobody at H&A gets to blame another trade for your timeline.
The part most contractors can’t offer
An ADU is the largest thing most people ever buy without seeing it first. So we removed that problem. Before you commit a dollar, you can walk our design center in Canoga Park and put your hands on every surface that will end up in your build, then walk a finished H&A ADU and meet the contractor who will sign your permit.
“We were able to physically see and touch the materials at their private showroom, which was very helpful and convenient.”
“They also have their own showroom that was very helpful for us picking out finishes.”
Showroom visits are by appointment · 6723 Variel Ave, Canoga Park
The people, not the brand
H&A is run by Golan Azran, the licensed general contractor on your permit.
Our homeowners tend to name the people they worked with. Meshi, Orel and Ben all appear by name in our Google reviews. That doesn’t happen when a company sends whoever was cheapest that week.

Two projects, start to finish, nothing left out. A permitted ADU is a complete home: kitchen, full bathroom, bedroom and its own laundry. That is what you are looking at.

More space. More value.
Homeowners come to us at very different points. Some know exactly what they want. Plenty are still working it out, which is a completely normal place to start a conversation.
A parent who shouldn’t be far away. An adult child who can’t afford to leave the area yet. Close, but with their own front door.
A separate, permitted unit on land you already own, with a use for it that can change as your life does.
A studio, office or guest space that is genuinely separate from the house, rather than a bedroom you gave up.
Permitted square footage, built properly, that stays on your property record and works for the next owner too.
Real homeowner experiences
Unedited excerpts from verified Google reviews. H&A My Design holds 4.8 stars from 82 reviews.
“We added a new ADU, which is very stressful. Orel and H&A My Design made the process smooth. They handled everything from idea through completion with full permits. They were able to finish ahead of schedule and have exceeded all our expectations.”
“After doing research to find the best company to turn my garage into a ‘granny flat’ for me that would allow a daughter to take over my home, I was lucky enough to connect with H&A. From the very first meeting and throughout the months of construction, their representative was professional, communicative, and able to solve both minor and complex details.”
“We got about 6 different bids and at the end we decided to go with H&A… The most impressive was they did what they said they would do every step of the way. Our project manager was Meshy and she always let us know who was coming each day and what they would be doing.”
“All issues that came up with the city or inspectors were handled with care and easily taken care of by the team. Orel did a great job as our project manager making sure everything went according to plan.”

Permitted, licensed, accountable
Every H&A ADU is a permitted build. Our license number sits on the sign out front, on the plans, and on the inspection record. There is exactly one company answerable for the work in your yard.
Paying for it
Most ADUs get financed. That part is normal. What is not normal is how often the financing is where the cost quietly goes up, through a marked-up contract price, or interest that was deferred rather than removed and lands in month thirteen.
We would rather walk you through the arithmetic while you can still change your mind about it.
Financing is arranged through a third-party lender and is subject to their approval and terms. We do not quote rates on this page. You will get the actual figures in writing with your scope of work.
Design & build process
We look at the lot, setbacks, access and utilities, and tell you honestly what it will and won’t take.
Size, layout and how you actually intend to use it, before anyone talks about numbers.
A written scope you can compare line by line against any other bid you are holding.
You select the finishes in person, at full size, with a designer. This is the step that keeps the rest predictable.
Our designers and architects produce the drawings, including 3D walkthroughs of your unit.
We prepare and submit, and we handle the back-and-forth with the city.
A project manager runs your build and tells you who is coming and what they are doing.
Final inspection, sign-off, and a permitted unit that belongs on your property record.
“The most impressive was they did what they said they would do every step of the way.”
“They handled everything from idea through completion with full permits. They were able to finish ahead of schedule.”
Where we build
An ADU is months of work, so we go where the project is. If you are roughly an hour to an hour and a half from our Canoga Park showroom, we build there, and the contractor running your project can still be at your property when it matters.
Every city below is one we have actually worked in, not a list of places we would consider. If you don’t see yours, call us and we will tell you straight away whether we are the right fit.
Before you get in touch
More space. More value.
Start with a conversation and a look at your lot. You will find out what is actually possible back there, and you will be able to judge us the same way we ask you to judge the work: in person.
