About Acton ADU
Acton ADU is a Campbell-based design-build firm serving the East Bay — including Oakland — with over 35 years of construction experience. Founded by Stanley Acton, the company is Bay Area ADU-only, managing every stage from feasibility and custom design through permitting, construction, and final warranty. Units are site-built to California residential code, not prefab or modular. Oakland is one of 40+ cities in Acton ADU's service territory. The company brings strong knowledge of East Bay jurisdictional requirements and manages the full permitting process, which is particularly valuable in Oakland where ADU regulations and permitting timelines can be complex. Their Build Ready product line includes pre-designed plans that can reduce permitting time, while custom ADUs are also available for unique lots. Typical detached ADU projects in the Oakland/East Bay area range from $225K to $475K, with the full process — design through construction — taking 9–14 months. Financing guidance and curated interior packages are part of their service. Reviews highlight reliable communication, attention to detail, and competent handling of California's often challenging ADU permitting environment. A strong choice for Oakland homeowners who want a fully managed, site-built ADU without prefab compromises.
