Full Design + Contracting Services
Extra storage, guest space, a private area to unwind — whatever your needs, a detached accessory dwelling unit (DADU) provides the solution. These disconnected home additions are also known as detached garages, in-laws’ quarters and, colloquially, the “she shed,” as they offer plenty of space to live, unwind or store your possessions.

The Lotus Building Group specializes in DADU design and construction, ensuring you have the professional support and contractors necessary to move from concept through completion. We understand the Nashville DADU requirements and have brought safe, beautiful dwellings to life throughout Tennessee. If you’re ready to break ground for your DADU unit, our team will take you through the process and deliver results on your timeline.
According to Nashville officials, building a DADU requires the support and assistance of licensed contractors and an evaluation from a Metro Codes zoning examiner. Whether you live in Nashville or somewhere nearby, we’ll go through all the rules and regulations with you and ensure your property is up to code for this addition.
We’ll work closely with your local officials to secure all the permits and approvals necessary to break ground for DADU construction.
Before we move forward with the construction of your dwelling unit, we’ll visit your property to conduct a site evaluation. We want to make sure everything is in place for us to build your unit as safely and effectively as possible.
While we take care of all the paperwork, our design team will consult with you about the blueprints. We’ll listen closely to understand exactly what you want to achieve with your DADU and discuss whether custom enhancements like countertops and crown moldings are right for you.
Once we’re through with planning, our construction team can get to work on bringing your DADU unit to life! Our contractors, utility professionals and other experts will work side by side to install all the wiring, plumbing and more.
Once all the finishing touches are in place, we’ll complete a final inspection and make sure every part of your new space fits local codes, regulations and your preferences.
Once we finish our job, it’s time for you to start reaping the benefits! With the additional dwelling unit, many of our clients report exciting opportunities, such as:
Our service area covers Davidson, Williamson, Wilson and Sumner counties, including these cities:
