Looking to build ADU in Fort Collins, contractor or prefab advice
Anyone in the Fort Collins or Northern Colorado area have a contact to build an ADU? Any and all input/advice welcome. I was thinking of also contacting Studio Shed? I'm open to prefab but don't know where to start.
Thank you!!

@Aimee Lawrence great job. The next step is to determine what kind of structure you can get permitted as an ADU. Some building codes won't allow prefabs. Some require a real foundation. Some allow for a slab etc. You might get with the City building department and ask them for a list of ADUs that have been built in the last 2 years. You might then be able to contact the owners using the property address. The owners might share their contractor's name with you. It usually works best if the builder has previous experience with what you want to build.
