01 — Meet the Owner

Meet AntonioCastillo

Antonio Castillo founded NewGen ADU Builders in 2026 with a simple idea: ADU construction should be honest, transparent, and committed to the people paying for it.

As a family-owned business based in Cerritos, NewGen treats each project like the neighbor's house it often is. Garage conversions, storage room conversions, and new attached and detached units are the whole business, so every detail gets the attention it deserves.

02 — How We Work

How We Work

  1. 01

    Consult

    When you reach out, you get a free ADU property and investment analysis: a review of your site conditions, access, and utilities, plus your goals and budget. It takes minutes and gives both of us a clear starting point.

  2. 02

    Design

    We develop the concept — size, layout, and finish level — and coordinate architectural and engineering work based on the final scope, then deliver a written estimate you review and approve. No surprises.

  3. 03

    Permit

    We submit for plan check and coordinate every permit requirement with the applicable jurisdiction so your project is fully approved before construction starts.

  4. 04

    Build

    From foundation and framing through MEP and finishes, we manage the defined scope, selections, and schedule, with inspections at every stage, and keep you updated as it progresses.

  5. 05

    Turnover

    Final inspection, punch-list completion, and a complete handoff of your finished ADU. Then we stand behind the work with a 1-year workmanship warranty.

05 — FAQ

Common Questions

How long has NewGen ADU Builders been in business?

NewGen ADU Builders was founded in 2026 and is based in Cerritos. We are a new company built around one focus, accessory dwelling units, and around a simple promise: honest, transparent work that we stand behind with a 1-year workmanship warranty.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. We are a licensed contractor and are fully insured and bonded. See the credentials section above, and ask us for documentation any time.

Do you only build ADUs?

Yes. Garage conversions, storage room conversions, new ground-up units, and attached and detached ADUs are our entire business. That focus is why the details get the attention they deserve.

What areas do you serve?

We work within about 30 miles of Cerritos across Los Angeles County and Orange County. If you are near the edge of that range, reach out and we will confirm.

How do I get started?

Text or call (562) 308-6040 or send the contact form. We will set up a short intake call and then schedule an on-site visit.

What should I compare when I'm getting bids from other ADU builders?

Before you compare bids, compare scope. Ask every builder to spell out, in writing, who is responsible for design and engineering, utility and electrical-service work, and foundation and structural scope; what cabinet, counter, flooring, and tile allowances are included; who handles permit and inspection responsibilities and site concrete, drainage, and exterior work; what the change-order process and exclusions are; and what your completion, punch-list, and warranty responsibilities look like. We put all of it in writing before you sign.
