Accessory Dwelling Units
An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a smaller, independent residential dwelling unit located on the same lot as a stand-alone (i.e., detached) single-family home. ADUs go by many different names throughout the U.S., including accessory apartments, secondary suites, and granny flats. ADUs can be converted portions of existing homes (i.e., internal ADUs), additions to new or existing homes (i.e., attached ADUs), or new stand-alone accessory structures or converted portions of existing stand-alone accessory structures (i.e., detached ADUs).e

Bathroom Addition
Bathroom additions include guest bathrooms and ensuite master bathrooms. If you want another bathroom, we can help you determine if you have the space to do it somewhere in your home without having to add to the footprint of the house. Common places for bathroom additions are in the basement or attached to the master bedroom if it doesn’t have an ensuite already. Sometimes sacrificing closet space or storage space is all that is required for a simple bathroom addition.
Sun Room
Sunrooms are often unheated rooms primarily made up of windows and designed to let you enjoy the weather without having to be out in it. It can be a great place to keep your outdoor plants safe during extreme weather conditions. They are simple to install because they do not require any additional heating or cooling routing, though you might need an electrician to run wires to power any lights or ceiling fans you choose to install.

Kitchen Extensions
Every year, homeowners remodel more than 10 million kitchens in the United States. If you’ve always wanted a larger kitchen but never had the space to make it happen, a kitchen extension addition may be right for you. Design build remodelers can increase the square footage of your kitchen to give you the space you need for wider countertops and plenty of cabinet storage.
Second Story Addition
It may sound like a much bigger time and cost investment to build a whole new level, but there are benefits to it. The addition will essentially double the current square footage of your home and open up many new room possibilities. For single-story homes, building up is the best way to increase that space. It also doesn’t take away from any yard space, so you can still benefit from the best of both indoor and outdoor living. Plus, if you can add a second story and continue living in your same home and neighborhood, then the payback is well worthwhile.
Bump-Outs
These are ideal if you need a little more space, but without the want for an entirely new room or addition. Bump-outs are generally done to make a kitchen larger, add a breakfast nook, or add more space to a bedroom or living room. The outcome is more square footage, but it works within your home’s existing space and layout. It can even be done on a master bathroom to expand the room into a real luxury spa space. Bump-outs are also one of the more cost-effective choices for additions, so if budgets are a factor, this is a perfect solution.

Garage Addition
If your home is missing a garage, then this is a perfect style of addition to consider. While not a traditional living space per se, garages are just as multi-use in their design. They can double as a workshop, added storage, or be transformed into a detached garage suite. That can then be rented for added income or as a place for aging parents to move in and be closer to home. Garages also open the possibility of adding a new room above the garage for a double addition. It’s the perfect place to add a bedroom or bonus room for a variety of different uses.

Garage Conversion
A garage conversion is a one- or two-vehicle attached garage that has been turned into a living space by adding flooring, replacing the garage door with a solid wall, and installing a ceiling. Usually, garage conversions become living rooms or bedrooms.

Basement Addition
As with a second story, basement additions are one of the more involved projects. That said, the potential they provide and the value a basement adds can make it worthwhile. Adding a new basement involves “house lifting,” where the soil beneath the house is dug out to accommodate the new space. That said, this type of addition is a rarer choice and naturally much more expensive than other additions. Like a second story addition, talk to a real estate agent before you choose a basement addition. They’ll let you know if the added value is worthwhile or whether a different type of addition would be more beneficial instead.
