From our very first appointment with Gershon, we felt confident we were in excellent hands. He listened carefully to what we wanted, offered thoughtful design suggestions, and walked us through the process and timeline in a clear, transparent way. Every step—from initial design and planning to the finishing touches—was handled smoothly, with consistent updates so we always knew what was happening next. The crew that worked on our home was hard working, professional, and very knowledgeable. They arrived on time, respected our home, and kept the work area as tidy as possible, which we really appreciated. The finished kitchen looks fantastic and functions even better than we hoped and the quality of the workmanship really stands out. Friends and family have already commented on how beautiful and well thought-out the space is. We would not hesitate to hire GS Design & Build again for future projects. If you’re looking for a top-tier contractor for your home remodeling, GS Design & Build are an outstanding choice.

Expert ADU Design & Build in Los Gatos, CA
Adding an ADU to your Menlo Park property is one of the most practical ways to use your lot. GS Design and Build handles the full process, from initial site review and design through construction. We work with detached backyard units, attached additions, and garage conversions. Menlo Park follows California state ADU law while applying its own local standards for setbacks, height, and lot coverage. Lots across the Peninsula often come with mature trees, tight side yards, and sloped grades that shape what can be built and where. We account for those site conditions before design begins, so the plan we draw fits your actual property. Whether you want a rental unit, a space for family, or a home office with a full bath, we take your goal from concept to a finished, permitted structure. Call GS Design and Build to talk through what your Menlo Park lot can support.
