Pacific Ocean Builders converted our detached garage to an ADU. We love it! Erez Cohen, who runs the company, was right there from the planning stages to the final inspection and beyond. The project involved digging about 180 linear feet of ditch for the new sewer line up to 9 feet deep. He delivered the project on time and on budget. Despite the notoriously difficult inspection process in Santa Monica, Erez passed all the inspections on the first attempt. He is meticulous about the details. He kept in touch almost daily so that we knew exactly what was going on and when. I would highly recommend Pacific Ocean Builders.

Thank you Peter!!
We truly appreciate your recognition of the planning, execution, and communication throughout your ADU garage conversion. Navigating a complex scope—including the deep sewer line installation—and successfully passing Santa Monica inspections on the first attempt is exactly the level of diligence and precision we strive to deliver on every project. We are glad to hear the project was completed on time, on budget, and met your expectations.
It was a pleasure working with you and Anne , and we sincerely appreciate your trust and recommendation. We wish you many years of enjoyment in your new ADU.
