Common Questions About Additions
What factors affect the scope of an addition?
The scope depends on whether you are expanding outward on a new foundation or building upward, as well as the interior finish level, electrical requirements, and plumbing needs.
How do you ensure the addition matches the existing home?
We match or complement existing exterior finishes, interior casing, flooring materials, and ceiling heights so the addition blends in naturally.
Can custom built-ins and storage be integrated into the room design?
Yes. Custom built-in entertainment units, window benches, bookcases, and custom storage cabinets can all be tailored to your space.
