Home Additions
Home additions designed and built to create needed space while connecting thoughtfully to the existing house.
We coordinate design information, approvals, site work, structure, building systems, exterior enclosure, and interior finishes as one project.
- Room and second-story additions
- Primary-suite additions
- Family room and kitchen expansion
- Garage and mudroom additions
A Practical Approach to Home Additions
An addition must work as part of the existing home, not as a separate box. Structure, rooflines, foundations, drainage, utilities, circulation, exterior materials, and interior transitions all require careful coordination.
Integrated Design
The new space is planned around the home's layout, architecture, systems, and exterior conditions.
Home Additions: the essentials
- Design and permits
- Structure and exterior
- Interior integration
Complete Coordination
Design, permits, trades, inspections, procurement, and finishes are managed through one project plan.
A clear path to completion
- Define the scope
- Coordinate the work
- Review the finished result
Budget Visibility
Allowances, options, and likely risk areas are identified as early as the available information permits.
Feasibility
Confirm how the addition can fit the property
Early review considers goals, zoning and setback questions, existing layout, utilities, access, grading, structure, budget, and the professional design information required.
Design and Preconstruction
Resolve the project before field work begins
Plans, selections, engineering, pricing, permits, long-lead items, site logistics, and construction sequencing are coordinated before mobilization.
Structure and Enclosure
Build a weather-protected addition
Foundation, framing, roofing, windows, doors, insulation, exterior materials, and waterproofing details are sequenced to protect the new and existing portions of the home.
Interior Completion
Connect systems, finishes, and living spaces
Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, flooring, trim, cabinetry, painting, fixtures, and final transitions complete the addition and integrate it with the home.
