Casita and ADU Construction FAQ

Common questions about casita and adu construction in Scottsdale, AZ.

Yes, most single-family residential lots in Scottsdale are now eligible for at least one detached ADU under the city's updated zoning ordinance. Your lot's size, zoning district, and any HOA rules will determine the exact scope of what you can build.

In Scottsdale and across the Phoenix metro, the terms casita, ADU, and guest house are used interchangeably. An ADU must include its own kitchen and sanitary facilities and can be rented out separately from the main home.

I recently completed a full kitchen remodel with SJR Remodeling ,and I could not be happier with the results. From the very beginning, their team stood out for their exceptional communication and transparency. They took the time to listen to my vision and provided detailed renderings that helped me visualize the final layout. The craftsmanship and attention to detail throughout the demolition and build phases were truly top-notch. The crew was always,incredibly polite, and maintained a clean workspace, which made living through a remodel much less stressful. While a project of this scale inevitably comes with minor adjustments, the project manager kept us informed every step of the way. They completed the installation, and stayed remarkably close to the initial budget we agreed upon. The new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and custom lighting have completely transformed the space into the heart of our home. I highly recommend SJR Remodeling,to anyone looking for a reliable, skilled, and professional remodeling team.

I had an outstanding experience working with SJR Remodeling. From start to finish, their team demonstrated professionalism, reliability, and true craftsmanship. They took the time to understand my vision, offered helpful suggestions, and kept me informed throughout the entire process. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations—every detail was handled with care and precision. What really stood out was their commitment to customer satisfaction. They were always punctual, respectful of my home, and made sure everything was cleaned up after each day of work. It’s rare to find a company that combines excellent communication, skilled workmanship, and genuine integrity—but SJR Remodeling delivers on all fronts. I highly recommend SJR Remodeling to anyone looking for a trustworthy and talented team for their home renovation needs. I couldn’t be happier with the results!

Jordan is professional, hardworking and did an amazing job on our spare bedroom. LVP flooring, door casings and baseboards were installed. He was recommended by a friend, and we would highly recommend him as well.

Dina Reis Google review · June 2025

Jordan installed flooring for me and did fantastic work! I have a lot of curved walls, didn’t realize how many until this project began. His attention to detail really shows from preparing the concrete under the old tile and carpet, to every cut made to fit the curves and even helping me pick the new baseboards. I love my new floors and will definitely use SJR Remodeling for future projects. Highly recommend.

SJR performed a kitchen remodel. 7 trades involved. Each sub's work was excellent. Coordination of subs was well done to minimize down time and expedite completion. Virtually no punch list necessary.
