Awesome Additions

Additions

The room you keep almost buying a new house for

You do not have a house problem. You have a square-footage problem — and it is a lot cheaper to fix than to move away from.

Additions

Why people do this

You already own
the hard part.

The street, the schools, the neighbors who watch the house when you travel, the tree you planted — none of that is for sale at any price.

An addition leaves every bit of it exactly where it is, and gives you the room you were about to move away to find.

A renovated Texas home beneath a mature live oak.

What an addition involves

Four things we handle
so you never have to.

The permit, the structure, the seam, and living through it — the four things people worry about most, in the order we deal with them.

01

We check the bones first.

Survey and engineering before design. Not every slab or frame will carry a second story — you hear that in week one, not month four.

02

We deal with the city.

Drawings, stamped engineering where the structure changes, and the permit — pulled by us, not left to you.

03

It has to look like it was always there.

Roof, slab and service tie-ins are detailed on paper before a wall opens, so the seam disappears.

04

You stay in your house.

A working kitchen and bath stay usable the whole build. Nobody moves into a rental.

One schedule, one Project Manager, and a written change order before any surprise becomes a cost.

Questions

Asked and
answered.

Can my house take a second story?

Not every slab or frame will carry one, so we check before anyone designs anything. Survey and engineering come first — you hear the answer in week one, not month four.

Do we have to move out?

No. A working kitchen and bath stay usable for the whole build, and the addition is framed and dried-in before the wall between old and new comes down. Nobody moves into a rental.

Will it look added-on?

It should not. Roof, slab and service tie-ins are detailed on paper before a wall opens, so the roofline ties in cleanly and the seam disappears — nobody should be able to tell where the old house stopped.

Who deals with the city?

We do. Drawings, stamped engineering where the structure changes, the permit and every city inspection are handled and attended by your Project Manager. You are told when; you are never sent.

What does an addition cost?

It depends which of the six kinds it is. Garage conversions typically run $60k–$150k, room additions $80k–$200k, second stories $150k–$300k. Each price band is on its page, comes from our own rate sheet, and your scope is written line by line before you sign.

What if it runs late?

If we do not deliver your project through the final checklist by the completion date on your signed schedule, we take 5% off the entire project — not 5% of the delay, 5% of the whole job. We can put our own money behind the date because the schedule is built in planning, watched every day and reviewed against the written standard at every stage.

Our guarantee

Where do I see progress?

You open the app. Every day on site is photographed into it, and the schedule lives there too — what moved, what is happening this week and what is planned for the next two — so you never have to call anyone to find out what happened at your house today.
