Redefining renovations: Kitsap residents enjoy signature, streamlined ADU approach

Local contractor delivers innovative solutions for homeowners ready to build an ADU

Traditionally, few things have been as stressful as a home renovation or building project. From connecting with the right people to the innumerable choices about everything from floor plans to fixtures, the experience can be overwhelming.

One Kitsap County contractor has changed that, with a process built on solid plans and clear communication.

“Our goal is always to translate our clients’ dreams into reality,” says Jacob Carrizosa, general manager at Fairbank Special Services, bringing decades of expertise, craftsmanship and a signature white-glove service to every project. “We want to make sure the dreams they have are being reflected through the work we’re doing.”

From helping clients connect with architects and designers to managing every detail of construction, their Fairbank Special Services (FSS) division ensures a smooth journey, no matter the project size.

“We launched the Special Services division to bring our high-caliber carpentry to everyday projects,” says Chad VerHoeven, Project Manager at Fairbank Special Services. “It’s about keeping customers up to date and removing surprises, so the process is stress-free.”

Now, Fairbank Special Services is bringing that same expertise to one of the region’s most exciting opportunities: Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Detached Accessory Dwelling Units (DADUs).

Thanks to Kitsap County’s new initiative, building an ADU is about to become far faster and easier. Previously, homeowners faced one to two years of complex permitting, high costs and stress. The new county program promises to cut review times by 50 t0 60 percent and clear a significant backlog, opening the door for homeowners eager to create flexible living spaces or investment properties.

Fairbank is ready to help the community seize this moment. Their newly launched ADU program – led by the FSS team – combines 47 years of collective experience with a fresh, simplified approach.

“We’re trying to make this like booking a vacation,” says VerHoeven. “You know what you want – you just don’t know where you’re going yet. And it should be a fun journey, not stressful.”

Fairbank’s Kitsap ADU program will offer homeowners:

Three county-compliant, pre-approved plan sets ready for faster permitting.
Three design options per set, to suit varying budgets and styles.
A fully customizable fourth option for a personalized build.
Custom finish selections for countertops, cabinets, trim and bathroom features.
A dedicated design team to help clients choose the best fit for their needs.

Even with pre-approved plans, Fairbank includes a comprehensive pre-construction and site-readiness phase as part of their white-glove service. From navigating zoning to coordinating inspections, the team handles it all, making the experience seamless.

Ideal for investment properties, aging in place or growing families, an ADU/DADU offers flexibility and potential increased home value. With Fairbank Special Services expertise, building one is as easy – and exciting – as picking your next vacation destination.

“Our job,” says Carrizosa, “is to carry it through the full process so our clients can simply say, ‘Yes, let’s do this.’”
