Rear Home Additions

Expanding the back of the home is an excellent way to create open-concept living areas, larger family rooms, or expanded dining spaces.

Primary Suite Additions

Add a spacious bedroom, walk-in closet, and private bathroom designed to provide greater comfort and privacy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Additions

The process typically begins with an on-site consultation. We evaluate your home’s layout, discuss your goals, review your property, and determine which type of addition best fits your needs and Arlington County requirements.
Yes. Many older homes can be successfully expanded. Before construction begins, we evaluate the existing foundation, framing, roof structure, and utility systems to determine the best approach for a safe and long-lasting addition.
A home addition can be designed for almost any purpose, including a larger kitchen, family room, primary bedroom suite, guest bedroom, home office, bathroom, mudroom, in-law suite, or multi-room expansion based on your family’s needs.
Our team manages the permitting process on your behalf. We prepare the required construction documents, submit permit applications, coordinate with Arlington County, and schedule inspections throughout the project.
Yes. Every addition is designed to complement your home’s architecture by using similar roof styles, exterior finishes, windows, trim details, and materials so the completed project looks cohesive.
Construction naturally creates some noise and activity, but we work to minimize disruptions by keeping the jobsite organized, maintaining clear communication, and following an established construction schedule whenever possible.
Absolutely. A well-designed addition can eliminate overcrowding, improve traffic flow, create larger gathering spaces, increase storage, and provide rooms that better support your family’s lifestyle.
Project costs vary depending on the addition’s size, structural modifications, site conditions, foundation requirements, roofing, exterior finishes, interior selections, and the complexity of the construction.
Many additions require tying the new construction into the existing home. This may involve modifying walls, relocating doors or windows, extending roofing, and connecting new electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems.
Once the design is finalized, we complete construction drawings, obtain permits, order materials, schedule inspections, and prepare the project for construction before work begins on-site.
For many Arlington homeowners, expanding their current home offers greater flexibility than moving. It allows you to customize the space to fit your family’s needs while avoiding the expense and inconvenience of relocating.
We provide a complete design-build experience, handling architectural planning, engineering, permit coordination, construction, project management, and final inspections. Our goal is to make the entire remodeling process organized, efficient, and as stress-free as possible for homeowners.
