Our Construction Services
From foundation to finish, S&L Construction delivers exceptional quality across all phases of residential construction, serving homeowners throughout the greater Seattle area, including all Seattle neighborhoods, the Eastside (Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland, and surrounding areas), and North Seattle communities like Edmonds and Shoreline.
Townhouse Construction
Townhouse construction involves building multi-story, attached units that share at least one common "party" wall from the foundation to the roof. Each unit is a distinct, individual structure with its own foundation, roof, and utilities, separated by a fire-rated wall to prevent spread between homes. Construction focuses on creating tall, narrow rows of homes, often in urban or suburban developments, with private entrances and sometimes small yards.

Single Family Homes
Building a single-family home involves a step-by-step process from site preparation to final finishes. Key stages include pouring the foundation, framing the structure, installing rough plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems, followed by insulation, drywall, interior trim, and exterior finishes like walkways and driveways. The entire process requires planning, coordination, and adherence to local building codes and regulations.
What We Build:
- Custom homes built to your specifications
- Modern architectural designs
- Traditional family homes

SFR, ADU & DADU
SFR, ADU and DADU unit site construction involves building accessory living units on a single-family residential lot, with the main difference being the ADU (Attached Accessory Dwelling Unit) is physically connected to the primary home, while the DADU (Detached Accessory Dwelling Unit) is a separate, stand-alone structure. Construction for both requires site plans, adherence to zoning laws and building codes (like size limits and setbacks), and must include a basic living area with a kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping space.
A DADU offers more design freedom but typically has higher upfront costs and may require a larger lot size, while an ADU is often faster and cheaper to build by converting existing spaces like a basement or garage, though it can have design limitations.
Common Uses:
- Rental income opportunities
- In-law suites for family members
- Home office or studio space
- Guest accommodations

Backyard Cottages
Backyard cottage construction involves pre-construction planning, site work, foundation installation, framing, and interior and exterior finishing, followed by final inspections and approvals. The process begins with checking local zoning laws and securing permits, which often includes designing the structure to meet setback and size requirements. Construction is a multi-step process similar to building a house, but often on a smaller scale and may include prefabricated elements.
Construction Process:
- Pre-construction planning and zoning review
- Site preparation and foundation work
- Framing and structural installation
- Interior and exterior finishing
- Final inspections and approvals
