How long does a horizontal addition take?
Most ground-level additions take 3-6 months from breaking ground to completion. Timeline depends on size, weather, and permit processing. We provide detailed schedules during planning.
Do I need to move out during construction?
Not usually. We seal off construction areas, maintain access to essential rooms, and schedule disruptive work during convenient times. Most families remain in their homes.
How do you prevent damage to existing landscaping?
We protect existing plantings, minimize equipment traffic on lawns, and restore disturbed areas after construction. Tree protection and drainage considerations are planned upfront.
Can additions affect my property setbacks or lot coverage?
Yes. Zoning regulations limit how close structures can be to property lines and maximum lot coverage. We verify zoning compliance before design and handle variance applications if needed.
How do you match existing foundation height?
We match existing foundation heights and floor levels precisely so new floors align with existing rooms. Proper grading and drainage around new foundations prevent water issues.
