Our Client Testimonials
Adding a second story addition to our Santa Clara home felt risky until we signed with Lecut. They locked in our contract price before breaking ground, eliminating cost overruns. Their crew worked efficiently, completing structural framing ahead of schedule while keeping the job site spotless.
Our rotting porch in Palo Alto was unsafe, but Lecut completed a new composite deck building job in four days flat.
We had a great experience working with Lecut and Yari on our bathroom remodel. Yari was very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project, and Lecut did a great job with the installation and finishing work.
They were professional, reliable, and always willing to come back and take care of small details when needed. We're very happy with how everything turned out and really appreciate their hard work and attention to detail.
I had a consultation with Yari to discuss a potential home remodel. He spent a great deal of time understanding my goals, brainstorming different layout options, and explaining the pros and cons of each approach. I appreciated that he was thoughtful, patient, and transparent throughout the discussion. He followed up with a detailed summary of our meeting and a realistic preliminary estimate, which helped me make an informed decision. Although I ultimately decided not to move forward with a major remodel, I had a very positive experience working with him and would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and professional contractor.
LeCut will ensure you love your renewed home.
After beating out two other remodel bids, because of the team, vision, and value, Yari, Luis, and team transformed our outdated bathroom into a clean, usable, and comfortable space. Working with Yari was a great experience, since he personally ensured we were 100% satisfied with the results of the project. Communicating with the team was smooth and the team was clean and respectful with with the rest of our house. Prior to completing the project, Yari did a thorough inspection with us to identify issues with tile alignment and grout finish. Yari and Luis brought the team back to rework the fit and finish items quickly, leaving us completely happy with the space.
We needed a kitchen update and a complete bathroom renovation in a smaller home. They maximized the space without making it feel crowded. Cabinets, counters, and tile all look custom. Communication was clear from start to finish and there were no last-minute extras. The rooms feel new and well built.
We remodeled the kitchen and two bathrooms as part of a larger first-floor refresh. The kitchen now works for a family and the bathrooms feel like they belong in a nicer house. Attention to trim, grout, and hardware stood out. They stayed on schedule and the final walkthrough was thorough. Extremely pleased with the results.
Our master bathroom and kitchen were last remodeled in the 90s, so we finally hired LeCut. The walk-in shower, dual vanity, and new kitchen layout completely changed how we use the house. Our project manager was on site almost every day and handled the permits without us lifting a finger. Workmanship is excellent and they finished a week early. Couldn’t be happier with LeCut!!!
We couldn't be happier with our experience working with LeCut Construction. Yari, Luis and the whole team were great to work with throughout the process. They responded quickly to every question, concern or comment we had every step of the way. They completely remodeled both our bathrooms and we love how they both turned out.
Lecut Construction completed a full remodel of our kitchen and master bathroom plus beautification of our garage. Yari Bardugo presided over the operation with skill, attentiveness, and good humor. All structural work was totally robust – we could see the quality being built in. Work on the finish elements was where Yari really shined. He checked for our desired positioning of lights and switches and the height of grab bars. When we were uncertain, he offered helpful suggestions. Yari also orchestrated various resources within Lecut (electricians and tilers) and outside (asbestos removal and HVAC). If anything wasn’t perfect the first time, Yari helped us improve it. He came to visit nearly every day, and we enjoyed our conversations very much.
The residential neighborhoods of Fremont include the old-established Niles and Mission San Jose to the homes on the hillside along the Mission Peak and the more modern development surrounding the Warm Springs. These circumstances impose an extra load on attached construction, particularly when new habitation is to be attached to older walls and rooflines which might not have been constructed to accommodate modern insulation and moisture control. Our group implements climate conscious building techniques to make attached residential spaces to work consistently under these local circumstances.
Fremont ADUs should be attached to accommodate heat accumulation, changes in temperature, and humidity that are brought about during rainy seasons. Building walls and structuring structures are more susceptible to heat conduction and condensation unless designed appropriately. The continuity of insulation, heat-resistant substances, and controlled ventilation are all necessary to ensure comfort and eliminate the effects of long-term wear on the building caused by climate factors.
Structural Compatibility Review
The ADU constructions based on shared structures are aimed at reinforcing the bond between the new and the existing spaces. Palo Alto has a high number of homes which were constructed many decades ago and it is crucial to know how the original building can sustain an addition attached to it. Planning is initiated by a careful evaluation of load paths, wall assemblies and roof connections.
Structural Reinforcement Planning
Available frames and load paths are inspected to identify the extent of the support of additional space which can be safely provided. The reinforcement requirements are established in the first place in order to avoid movement or settling. This provides solid support to the attached ADU.
Expansion Design Heat-Responsive
Hot summers affect the orientation of expansions and insulation. Wall systems have been created to minimize heat concentration along common surfaces. This enhances indoor comfort when there are prolonged warm seasons.
Maximum Utilization of the Space
Growths will also be done to ensure that the original home is used fully without congesting it. Layouts are a tradeoff between added square footage, circulation and privacy. It is aimed at providing a working addition that is natural.

Integrated Home ADU Solutions
The solutions to integrated ADU are concerned with the way new living space can be integrated in the home and not as an addition. The first step in planning involves knowledge of the effect that the addition will exert on daily use, energy performance, and durability.
- Shared-Wall Performance Planning: The walls are constructed to reduce the passage of heat and sound between the living spaces without affecting the strength of the structure.
- Climate-Appropriate Insulation Systems: Insulation is chosen to accommodate extended summer temperatures and lessen the variation in temperature along the common surfaces.
- Moisture and Humidity Control Measures: Vents and barriers are used to avoid moisture accumulation when there is rain in the season.
- Roofline and Structural Alignment: The coordination of roof and framing connections has to deal with load distribution and thermal expansion.
- Privacy and Pragmatic Access Design: The access points will be designed in such a way that it will not interfere with the main home.
The choice of material and systems is based on their ability to work under the climatic conditions and daily usage of the city of Fremont.
ADU Design for Connected Living
To come up with an ADU that will be connected to live together, there should be a balance between independence and cohesion. The floor plans are assessed to identify the way entrances, common systems, and circulation routes work with each other. This is particularly desirable in Fremont areas that have smaller lot sizes.
Design decisions are also informed by climate. Having better airflow and insulation can aid in the regulation of heat retention in the spaces connected, and moisture protection will assist the performance of the rainy season. The outcome will be a detached ADU which works in perfect harmony with the main house.
Our Team Works Closely with Homeowners from Start
Effective attached ADU projects require effective communication and coordination. The process is scheduled, designed and built in tandem with the stage to ensure predictability and order in progress. The strategy enables the mitigation of disruptions and maintains expectations in the process.
With build efficiency, long-term performance is taken into account. Lightweight materials, reliable insulation, and convenient designs are helpful in making sure that the attached ADU will be comfortable and reliable long after its completion. Every project is treated as a long lasting living solution and not a temporary one.

The $40,000 grant in California for ADUs is part of the state's CalHFA ADU Grant Program. This program offers eligible homeowners up to $40,000 to help cover the pre-development costs of building an Accessory Dwelling Unit. Funds can be used for expenses like architectural plans, permits, site prep, and engineering reports. The grant does not need to be repaid, but it is limited to one per property and is available on a first-come, first-served basis. For homeowners in San Jose, Santa Clara, and Sunnyvale, this grant can significantly offset initial costs. If you are considering an ADU, Lecut Construction can guide you through the eligibility requirements and application process to ensure you maximize this opportunity.
When building an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), homeowners often underestimate the complexity of local zoning codes and permit requirements. A frequent mistake is failing to secure proper setbacks or exceeding height limits, which can lead to costly redesigns or stop-work orders. Another common error is neglecting utility connections, such as sewer and electrical capacity, resulting in unexpected fees and delays. Additionally, many DIY builders overlook proper insulation and ventilation standards, compromising energy efficiency and comfort. For a deeper look into these issues, we recommend reviewing our internal article titled The Most Common Code Violations In DIY San Jose Remodels, which details frequent oversights seen in San Jose remodels. Lecut Construction advises consulting a professional early to avoid these pitfalls.
