Our Guarantee & Warranty - Lodgewick ADU San Diego

The Lodgewick ADU San Diego Guarantee

When we build an ADU, convert a garage, or add square footage to your San Diego home, the promise we make is simple: if the work isn’t right, we come back and make it right. That commitment has a name here. It’s our 365-Day Done Right Promise, and it’s put in writing on every single project before the first crew member steps onto your property. No handshake deals. No “we’ll see what we can do.” Just a written guarantee delivered to you before work begins. Russ Delmar, Owner, has been running builds this way since 2010, because a written promise is the only kind that actually means something when a drawer sticks or a seam opens up six months after you’ve moved your tenant in.

What’s Covered

• Workmanship. Every stud, seam, connection, and finish we install is backed by our written guarantee, with a free return visit if the work fails within the 365-day period.
• Written price before work starts. You’ll see the full project price in writing before we begin, every time, with no price changes at the door.
• Arrival windows. We give you a defined arrival window and we show up inside it. That’s part of The Kingswell Way, and we don’t treat your calendar like a suggestion.
• Clean job site. When the crew leaves, the site is cleaner than we found it. No piles of drywall offcuts, no stray screws in the driveway, no mystery debris in the yard.
• Parts and materials. We work with established ADU brands and materials – Abodu, Cover, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, Plant Prefab, Tuff Shed, and James Hardie – and we stand behind how they’re put together on your lot.
• Background-checked crews. Every technician on your San Diego job site has passed a background check and wears a uniform, so you always know exactly who’s on your property.
• A live person on the phone. When you call (619) 376-2760 with a question about your build or your guarantee, a real human answers. Not a voicemail loop. Not a chatbot. That’s 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Our Satisfaction Promise

Here’s how the make-it-right process actually works if something isn’t done correctly on your San Diego ADU or garage conversion. You call us. A live person answers, day or night, at (619) 376-2760. You tell us what’s wrong. We schedule a return visit, free of charge, during the 365-day guarantee period. Our crew shows up in the window we gave you, fixes the issue, and leaves the site clean again. No arguing about whether it’s covered. No asking you to prove it. Russ Delmar built this company on a straightforward idea: if we said it was done right and it isn’t, that’s on us, not you. The 365-Day Done Right Promise is printed on your project paperwork before work begins, so you never have to wonder what happens if something goes sideways. The answer is already in writing.

Licensed & Insured Backing

Paperwork only matters if there’s something real behind it. Lodgewick ADU San Diego is a licensed and insured contractor serving homeowners throughout San Diego County. What does that actually mean for you? If a crew member gets injured on your property, our insurance covers it, not your homeowner’s policy. If we damage something during the build, our insurance covers that too. Licensing means the state has verified we meet the legal requirements to perform this work and that we’re accountable to San Diego’s building standards. The licensing board doesn’t hand out permits to just anyone, and neither do we. That’s the foundation under every written guarantee we offer, and it’s why we don’t ask you to take our word on trust alone. The Kingswell Guarantee has teeth because the company behind it carries real accountability.

The Kingswell Way

Every project we build operates under The Kingswell Guarantee, and it’s worth spelling out exactly what that means on a day-to-day level. We say the price before the work. We show up in the window we gave you. We leave the place cleaner than we found it. We put the guarantee in writing. And if the work fails within 365 days, we come back and make it right at no charge. That’s it. That’s the whole system. It’s not complicated, and we think that’s the point. A lodge, after all, is a small house on a larger property, which is exactly what an ADU is. The name Lodgewick comes from that idea, and the guarantee behind it comes from something even simpler: do what you said you’d do, and write it down so there’s no confusion later.

How the 365-Day Done Right Promise Works

Let’s walk through a specific example, because guarantees sound nice in brochures but real life is where they get tested. Say we complete a detached ADU in Clairemont, and eight months later you notice the interior door between the main house and the new unit isn’t latching properly because the frame shifted slightly. You call (619) 376-2760. A live person answers. We pull up your project file, confirm you’re inside the 365-day window, and schedule a return visit. Our crew arrives in the window we gave you, fixes the latch or adjusts the frame, and leaves. You don’t get a bill. You don’t get a lecture about settling. You get it fixed. That’s the entire promise, and it’s why we put it in writing on every project instead of hoping you remember a verbal assurance from a sales conversation.

Why We Work With Established ADU Brands

Part of standing behind our work means being picky about the systems and materials we install. We have hands-on familiarity with leading ADU brands including Abodu, Cover, Dvele, Mighty Buildings, Boxabl, Plant Prefab, Tuff Shed, and James Hardie. We match the right system to your lot, budget, and timeline in San Diego’s specific regulatory environment. That matters because a prefab ADU that worked great in Sacramento might need different foundation or drainage handling in a coastal neighborhood like Ocean Beach or a canyon lot in Mission Valley. When we use products we know well, our workmanship guarantee means something. We aren’t learning on your project.
