Story
AddSpace DADU was created out of a simple idea: building a backyard home shouldn’t be confusing or stressful. For years, we watched homeowners struggle with city permits, unclear design options, and unpredictable construction timelines. The process felt overwhelming, and too often, good projects never made it past the planning stage.
That’s where AddSpace DADU began, with two friends who saw a better way to build.
Danial Dorran, a successful business owner in commercial construction, spent years managing large-scale projects throughout the Pacific Northwest. He understood how complex and time-consuming construction could be, especially when homeowners were left to coordinate designers, engineers, and contractors on their own.
David Anderson, a craftsman known for creating custom furniture and small structures, brought a deep appreciation for design, detail, and the homeowner experience. He saw how frustrating it could be for people who wanted to improve their homes but didn’t know where to begin.
Together, they realized that homeowners needed something different: a clear, guided path to creating backyard homes that add value, flexibility, and income without the stress.
That idea became AddSpace DADU, a local company dedicated to making the DADU process simple, honest, and enjoyable. By bringing feasibility, design, engineering, permits, and construction under one roof, AddSpace DADU keeps homeowners informed and confident from start to finish.
To ensure every project meets the highest standards, we partner only with experienced subcontractors who have a proven track record and a minimum of 10 years in their trade. This commitment to quality craftsmanship ensures every DADU is built to last and finished with precision.
Every project we take on is about more than adding square footage. It’s about helping families add possibilities. Whether it’s creating a space for loved ones, generating rental income, or building long-term property value, we handle every project with care, clarity, and craftsmanship.
After more than a decade serving Washington homeowners through local construction and consulting, we remain focused on one mission: to make backyard living simple, beautiful, and stress-free.
