- Outdoor Living Space: A rooftop deck provides additional outdoor living space, allowing occupants to enjoy fresh air, sunshine, and panoramic views. It can serve as a private retreat for relaxation, socializing, or outdoor dining.
- Entertainment Area: The rooftop deck can be transformed into an entertainment area, complete with seating, lighting, and possibly even a barbecue grill or outdoor kitchen. It offers a versatile space for hosting gatherings, parties, or casual get-togethers with friends and family.
- Improved Property Value: Adding a rooftop deck to a one-bedroom ADU can increase the property’s overall market value. Rooftop decks are desirable features that can enhance curb appeal and attract potential buyers or renters willing to pay a premium for the added outdoor space.

- Energy Efficiency: Depending on the design and materials used, a rooftop deck can provide additional insulation and improve energy efficiency. It can help regulate indoor temperatures by reducing heat gain in the summer and heat loss in the winter, potentially lowering utility bills.
- Outdoor Work or Study Space: The rooftop deck can function as a quiet and inspiring outdoor workspace or study area. It offers a refreshing change of scenery and can boost productivity and creativity for remote workers or students.
Overall, a one-bedroom ADU with a rooftop deck offers numerous benefits, including expanded living space, increased property value, enhanced aesthetics, and opportunities for outdoor recreation and entertainment.

The term "Dry-In" refers to the stage of construction where the building is enclosed and protected from rain and other environmental factors, allowing interior work to proceed without being exposed to the weather. Dry-In Kits are especially common in construction projects where speed and efficiency are crucial, as they provide a convenient way to quickly establish the basic structure of the building and include exterior finishes, only before proceeding with interior finishes and other construction activities. Well Done 1 Kit Homes, Dry-In Kits come with Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) plans, architectural drawings, and Title 24 compliance where necessary. The package also includes structural engineering and calculations specifically tailored for the steel stud frame kit and foundation plan.
What is referred to as a Non-Permitted Full Kit encompasses structures like sheds or home offices designed to fit within specific size regulations in your backyard without the need for permits. Generally, these structures don't involve electrical or plumbing installations, although external power points might be permitted for electricity supply, depending on local regulations. Exterior finishes, roofing, doors, windows, insulation, and wall and ceiling panels are included, requiring minimal cutting to fit the provided materials. Windows and doors need to be installed by the buyer. The exterior walls come pre-fitted with OSB or plywood to the steel stud frames, each wall section weighing between 200 to 250 lbs. Detailed instructions and necessary hardware for assembling the frame kit are provided. Please consult your local building authority for specific regulations, as they vary by location.

4. Manufacturing: Our Engineering and Fabricating team has a custom built approach, known as a “Panelized Steel Assembly System”. This system produces sections of your home’s walls, ceilings, and roof (your design or ours) that are ready for assembly upon delivery. Our steel stud framing engineers provide a calculation package and stamped steel stud frame plans based on the prelim plan. Based on the civil and soils report, calculation package and the stamped steel stud frame plans, the MEPS / foundation engineer will create the permit submission set of plans.
This set of plans must go through “Plan Check” in your area to determine what local code revisions need to be made. Then corrections can be completed by all parties and then resubmitted for permits. Once Plan Check is passed, fabrication can begin. These are all services provided by Well Done 1 to ensure your build is
completed to your local code and city requirements. Please Contact Us if you
would like to discuss our services.

- Fabrication and manufacturing process that promotes efficiency in
installation - Steel framing is 100% termite and borer proof
- Steel won’t bend, twist, warp, or mold
- Pre punched holes in framing provides easier installation of electrical and plumbing
- No cutting or changes are necessary, meaning no waste. As opposed to lumber cut on site having an average of 15% waste.
- Our Panelized Steel Stud Framing system creates a faster installation method as opposed to standard “stick-build” framing. Construction times to erect the frames are completed in less than half the time of a “stick-build” home.
- Discounted insurance policies. Contact your insurance company, as you may receive a discounted policy due to the increased durability of our steel homes and their resilience to extreme weather and fires
- Steel framing is more environmentally friendly. Steel buildings have lasted up to 150-years and are known to stand the test of time.
All of our cold form steel is G60 to G90 galvanized for the highest protection depending on your location.
Galvanized steel refers to a process that coasts mild steel with a layer of zinc to provide good corrosion resistance. Our steel supply offers G60 to G90 Galvanized steel, meaning that the zinc coating is a minimum of 0.90 ounces per square foot (coating both sides of the sheet).
Depending on your requirements for your county, building codes, and environmental needs, the gauge of the steel and engineering may change.

Yes, you can! Minor modifications, such as changing the rough openings of the windows and doors can be done. Other modifications can also be done to the design, such as changing walls, higher ceilings, etc. We can also customize on your land setbacks. If you have your own set of plans, we can also quote on a CFS building system for that house. These changes may incur an additional cost, as it will change the engineering and the updated design. This will need to be signed off by our Engineer/Architectural Designer. We can discuss this cost before you purchase.
