ADU Homes
Accessory Dwelling Units & Tiny Homes- Built Right in Colorado, Delivered Everywhere
At Trailer Made Custom Trailers and The Tiny House Experts, we don’t just bolt together sheds and call them ADUs. We engineer real homes—on wheels or on foundation—designed to out-perform stick-built additions in strength, energy efficiency, and speed to completion. Every unit rolls out of our Olathe plant on an IRC- and ANSI-stamped steel chassis and gets wrapped in wildfire-rated, high-R-value panels. Need a rental suite, a casita for mom, or a code-approved tiny house on wheels? We ship a factory-perfect shell that’s ready for finishes the moment it lands.
WHY BUILD WITH TRAILER-MADE?
Lifetime-warranty foundations: gooseneck or bumper-pull; no cracking concrete.Â
Cold-formed steel framing: 30 % lighter than lumber, zero rot, wildfire certified.Â
National code compliance: we helped write Tiny-House Appendix Q.
Fast timelines: shells ship in 6–10 weeks; turnkey builds average 5–7 months.
High-performance envelope: R-42 floors, R-30+ walls/roof, solar-ready wiring.
Smart floor plans: optimized for rental cashflow or multigenerational living.Â
RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Colorado ADUs routinely add ≈ 30 % to property value. Mid-term rentals (think traveling nurses) often cover the mortgage from month one. Nationally, the ADU market is set to triple by 2030, and our tiny houses hold resale value thanks to that lifetime trailer warranty.
COLORADO ADVANTAGE
House Bill 24-1152 turns ADU approval into a rubber-stamp process statewide starting June 30, 2025. Denver is already all-in, city-wide. We handle zoning checks, engineer stamps, and permit packets so you don’t have to.
BUILT IN COLORADO—SHIPPED ANYWHERE
All fabrication happens in-house, then we roll nationwide by flatbed and load intermodal containers for Alaska, Hawaii, Canada, and Mexico. We tackle the logistics paperwork; you arrange local craning and utilities.
