Expert ADU Construction in Sarasota County, FL

ADU construction in Sarasota County gives homeowners a practical way to add a fully self-contained living space without buying a new property. Phoenix Construction US handles detached backyard units, attached additions, and garage conversions from site assessment through final build. Sarasota County permits ADUs in RSF, RSF/PUD, and RE zoning districts, and the county does not count an ADU toward your lot's density limits. That means most qualifying properties can add a unit without a rezoning fight. One key local factor: HOA covenants and deed restrictions are not overridden by county ADU rules, so we review your property documents before any work begins. Coastal and flood zone setbacks also apply across parts of the county, and we build to Florida Building Code wind-resistance standards throughout. Whether you need space for a family member, a long-term rental unit, or a private guest suite, we plan and build a structure that matches your main home's style and meets Sarasota County code. Call Phoenix Construction US to talk through your property and what it can support.

ADU Construction FAQ

Common questions about adu construction in Sarasota County, FL.

Most properties in Sarasota County zoned RSF, RSF/PUD, or RE are eligible for an ADU. Your HOA documents and deed restrictions must also be checked, since those can override county zoning rules.

We build detached backyard units, attached additions, and garage conversions across Sarasota County. Each type is designed to meet local setback, height, and style requirements for your specific zoning district.

No, Sarasota County does not count an ADU toward your lot's density limits under the current ordinance. This means you can add a unit to most qualifying lots without applying for a rezoning.

Yes, Sarasota County requires the ADU to match the height, finish, and style of the primary structure. We design every unit to meet that standard so your project clears county review.

ADUs are not permitted within the Coastal Islands Overlay District, which covers the barrier islands in the City of Sarasota. If your property is in or near that zone, we assess eligibility before any planning begins.

In Sarasota County's RSF zones, the property owner must reside in either the primary dwelling or the ADU. We confirm the owner-occupancy rules that apply to your specific parcel before the project moves forward.

I am using Phoenix to remodel/update my bedroom bathroom. I have to say they are the best company I have worked with on my house. Although the update is still in process, I wanted to say this company is amazing. From design to work on project. Communication ahs been top notch with custom portal,calendar,daily visits by management. They treat your(my) property w/ upmost respect. They even put down protective material on my sidewalk outside. I can't wait to see the finished project. I'll let you know!
