Adding a home addition might be the best alternative compared to moving to find your new dream space. You can do a second level addition, bump out a part of a room, add a garage, or extend your first floor! Any of these options will provide added value to your home.

A second-storey addition doubles the living space of a ranch or cape without touching the footprint — the right move on a small lot, and common on the 1950s homes in Hamilton, Ewing, Fairless Hills and Levittown-era neighbourhoods. A rear or side addition extends the first floor for a bigger kitchen, a family room or a first-floor bedroom suite. A bump-out adds a few feet to one room, often enough to make a cramped kitchen or bath work. And a garage, attached or detached, with or without a room above it, is an addition too.

Each has its own structural questions. A second floor means checking whether the existing foundation and framing can carry it; a rear addition means a new foundation and tying the new roof into the old one without creating a leak; a bump-out is often cantilevered off the existing floor joists. We have built all of them and will tell you honestly which suits your house.

Moving means selling costs, buying costs, a new mortgage at today's rates and a new commute. An addition means keeping the house, the neighbourhood and the schools you chose, and adding the space you are short of. In most of the towns we serve, a well-built addition adds more to the value of the home than it costs, and you get to live in it in the meantime.

We build additions across Mercer, Somerset and Middlesex County in New Jersey and Bucks and Montgomery County in Pennsylvania, and we are licensed and insured in both states.
