What We Build

A second unit on your property, whether it’s for family, a rental, or a home office that finally has a door.

Garage Apartments & DADUs

A new garage with a finished apartment above it, or a standalone backyard cottage, built from the foundation up.

Attached ADUs & In-Law Suites

A self-contained unit added onto your house or carved out of space you already have.

Garage & Basement Conversions

Turning an existing garage or basement into a finished, livable unit with its own entry.

Plumbing and HVAC are installed by our own licensed crews, not subs, so the trades that usually hold up a build stay on our schedule.

How a DADU Project Runs

1

Lot check

Before anyone draws plans, we look at your lot and what Metro Nashville allows there, so you know early whether a DADU is on the table.

2

Plans and pricing

We work from your architect or designer’s plans and price them as they develop, so the design stays inside your budget.

3

Permits and build

We pull the permits and run the job from footings to finishes, with plumbing and HVAC done in-house, through final inspection and handoff.

Why Baroona

One contractor, three trades

General contracting, plumbing, and HVAC under one roof. Fewer handoffs, a tighter schedule, and one number to call.

Built for owners and investors

Whether the unit is for family or rental income, we plan the build around how you’ll actually use it and what it needs to earn.

ADU & DADU Questions

Can I build a DADU on my Nashville lot?

It depends on your lot: zoning, size, and any overlays, and Metro Nashville sets those rules. We look at your specific lot early, before you spend money on plans, so you know where you stand.

Do you build garage apartments?

Yes. A new garage with a finished apartment above it is one of the most common detached ADUs we build in Nashville.

Do you handle the plumbing and HVAC?

Yes. Our own licensed crews, Baroona Plumbing and Baroona HVAC, do that work in-house. That is one less set of subs to schedule around, and one less place for the job to stall.

Do you design the unit?

We don’t do architectural design ourselves. We build from your architect or designer’s plans, price them as they develop, and can point you to designers we trust.

What areas do you serve?

Nashville and Middle Tennessee, including Green Hills, Belle Meade, Berry Hill, Brentwood, Franklin, Nolensville, and Hendersonville.
