        "text": "Most ADU projects allow you to keep living in the main house, especially for detached builds or garage conversions. There will be noise, dust, and some utility interruptions, but you generally don’t need to relocate unless the work significantly impacts your main home. \n\nPlanning access routes, work hours, and temporary shutdowns ahead of time helps keep the disruption manageable.\n\nKey factors:\n- Whether the ADU is attached to or within the existing house\n- Utility tie-ins that might briefly shut water or power\n- Site access; whether crews must pass through living areas\n- Local rules about work hours and noise\n\nDiscuss living-in-place explicitly with your contractor and have them outline the noisiest phases and any planned outages. With a clear schedule and boundaries, most families in LA can stay on site throughout the build."
