Room Additions

Room additions are an ideal solution when you need to expand a house that feels too small or lacks the desired style or space. Adding a new room is a significant undertaking that may seem simple at first but often involves complexities. It’s important to consider potential challenges and plan thoroughly before moving forward. Here are some key questions to ask yourself before making any changes:

  • Do I really need these changes?
  • Would additional rooms solve the problem?
  • Are there any other viable options?

If you find that expanding is the only way to meet your needs, take the time to carefully visualize the modifications you want. Make detailed notes and comments to ensure that the professionals you hire clearly understand your vision.

Tips for Successful Room Additions

  1. Explore All Options
    If you’re seeking more space, remember that adding a new room isn’t the only option. Consider alternatives like converting unused spaces, finishing the attic or basement, removing unnecessary interior walls, or repurposing underutilized areas.

  2. Define the Purpose
    Clearly determine the function of the new space, whether it’s a dining room, family room, sunroom, or conservatory. Knowing its purpose will help you make informed decisions about the design and materials that suit your vision. Our project manager will guide you through the process to ensure you’re adding value to your home.

  3. Plan the Build
    Room additions come in various shapes and sizes and can extend in any direction. Choose a design that works for the available space and aligns with your needs and style. We’ll help you create the ideal plan, including where to make necessary structural changes, and suggest the best areas for extensions. Working closely with our team will ensure a well-thought-out addition that fits seamlessly into your home.

  4. Choose Materials Carefully
    Make sure the new room blends seamlessly with the existing structure. Our team will offer options to extend the foundation and roof, as needed, and integrate the finishing touches into the original design. We’ll also ensure that essential systems are extended to the new space, and that windows, doors, siding, and other elements match the rest of the house. We’re here to help you make informed decisions throughout the process and execute the project successfully.

Choose the right professionals to get the best results for your room addition project.
