Types of Additions We Build
Additions solve targeted problems: one more bedroom, a real master suite, a family room that actually fits the family. The most common projects we take on:
- Bedroom and bathroom additions
- Master suite additions
- Expanded kitchens and family rooms
- Home office and bonus room additions
- Garage extensions
Why Additions Are a Structural Project First
An addition ties new foundation, framing and roofing into an existing structure that was never designed for it. That connection is where quality is decided: footings sized correctly, walls tied into existing framing, roof planes joined without future leak points and floor levels matched exactly. We treat the structural tie in as the heart of the project, because everything visible sits on top of it.
Blending New Into Old
A well built addition also has to disappear. We match exterior stucco or siding texture, continue rooflines cleanly, align window styles and carry interior flooring and trim through the new space so the addition reads as original construction, not an attachment.
Living in the Home During Construction
Most families stay in the house during an addition. We build the new structure fully enclosed before opening the connection to your living space, keep dust barriers in place and schedule the disruptive stages, like tying into the existing roof or walls, in tight, well communicated windows.
Frequently Asked Questions
Cost depends on size, structural complexity and finish level, with bathrooms and kitchens costing more per square foot than bedrooms. After a site visit we provide an itemized estimate for your specific project rather than a generic per square foot number.
Yes, always. Additions require plans, structural engineering and city permits, and we manage that entire process. Unpermitted additions create serious problems at resale and with insurance.
Most single room additions take three to five months of construction once permits are issued, depending on size and how much of the existing home the new space connects to.
