Home Additions
Experience Counts
Home additions should only be completed by an experienced general contractor. A home addition requires building permits and industry expertise to ensure the structural integrity of your home is not compromised. Homeowners attempting the DIY route will typically find themselves spending twice the time and money than it would have cost had they hired a professional contractor.

What is the Return on Investment of a home addition?
When completing a home addition, it is important to conduct a needs assessment and set realistic expectations based on your budget. Consider adding amenities that are highly sought after in your area. If your neighbors have sunrooms and you don’t, then that’s a good investment. Below is a list of approximate ROI values based on the type of addition.
- Kitchen Addition (83%)
- 2 story addition with a family room downstairs and master suite upstairs (75%)
- Master Suite-only addition (73%)
- Bathroom Addition (70%)
- Sun room Addition (65%)
In-Law Suite

Building wide doorways, keeping everything on one level with flush door thresholds, and building halls and small spaces to accommodate wheelchair access is all much easier from scratch. Almost any homeowner can benefit from the addition of a suite, even if it’s just to increase the home’s value and attractiveness to buyers who do have aging parents to care for.
Master Suite

Consider which style will best suit your home and family and what thermal performance features will be ideal for your home. Doors and windows can increase your home’s value through greater curb appeal and reduce costs due to greater efficiency.
