For transparency's sake

A few things that increase cost:

Deep Backyard

Our base price includes up to 50 ft of plumbing and 100 ft of craning. Our sales team will assess your backyard ahead of time to see how long your backyard is and provide upfront plumbing and craning costs.

$125 per additional foot of plumbing over 50 ft. 

$250 per additional craning foot over 100 ft. 

Electrical Panel Upgrade

If your home electrical panel is under 200 amps or has less than 85 amps of additional capacity, we’ll likely need to upgrade. Don’t worry, we’ll take care of it for you.

$7,500 

Hazardous Soil Conditions

If you live in an area where your land requires a specially engineered foundation, we’ll see if we can design one for your Abodu.

We’ll provide a quote. 

Landscape Removal or Repair

If you need us to tear down that old shed, remove that dead tree, or provide significant landscape repair after Abodu installation- we’ve got you covered.

We’ll bring in a local landscape partner to provide a quote.
