Carry an ADU from board installation through finish

An accessory dwelling has rooms, openings, and finish choices that need to come together before the walls close in. If the plan stops at board, taping and finishing can fall outside the schedule the project is working toward.

Solis installs ADU drywall from the room layout and drawings, then carries the work through taping and the selected finish. Those stages connect the wall surfaces to the dwelling's planned layout and target schedule.

  • ADU board installation tied to the room layout.
  • Taping and finishing carried into the project sequence.

Here’s how we get it handled

  1. Text us photos or call

    A close-up, a wider view and your city give us a useful starting point. You can also call and talk through the work.

  2. Agree the scope and schedule

    We review the work with you, arrange a site visit where needed and put the agreed scope and finish in your estimate.

  3. Get the space finished

    Solis completes the agreed work and reviews the finish with you. Include interior painting in the scope for a complete drywall-and-paint handoff.

Half of Gig Harbor's homes were built before 1998 and half after. Many ADUs here join an existing house, so the new walls are often finished to meet the older ones. U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2020–2024, median year structure built

Gig Harbor ADU code context

City code permits up to two ADUs with a principal dwelling and sets a 1,200-square-foot limit excluding related garage area, subject to underlying-zone standards. The authorized plans determine the drywall layout. Gig Harbor Municipal Code 17.69.030 ADU standards

Translate the approved ADU plan into wall areas

An ADU can be inside, attached to or detached from the main house, and each one brings different room lines, ceilings, doors and connections to existing construction. We use the current plans to separate new board, surfaces that stay and the finish in each room. A unit schedule that splits kitchen, bath, sleeping rooms, closets and shared walls keeps the price tied to your actual layout.

What Gig Harbor's ADU code allows

Gig Harbor Municipal Code allows up to two ADUs with a principal dwelling and caps each at 1,200 square feet, not counting related garage area. Zone standards, setbacks, lot coverage, parking and construction codes still apply, so check your parcel with the City and your designer. We build the drywall for the unit that was approved.

Coordinate rough-ins before board closes the walls

Kitchens, baths, laundry and mechanical space bring service openings, cabinets and access points into the wall plan, and rough-ins and inspections are done before we hang board. Then we map wall types, ceilings and finish levels by room. If the design puts a sound or fire detail at a shared wall, we carry that full assembly reference through the quote.
