Home Additions

Growing families need more space, but moving isn't always the answer. Home additions provide additional square footage while staying in the neighborhood you love. We design and build additions that seamlessly blend with your existing home's architecture, creating functional space that feels like it was always there.

Popular home addition projects include:

• Bedroom Additions: Master suites, guest rooms, children's bedrooms with closets
• Bathroom Additions: Full baths, powder rooms, en-suite bathrooms
• Family Room Additions: Expanded living space for entertainment and relaxation
• Sunroom Additions: Light-filled spaces connecting indoor and outdoor living
• Kitchen Extensions: Enlarged kitchens with space for islands and dining
• Second Story Additions: Expanding up when lot size limits horizontal growth
• In-Law Suites: Self-contained spaces for elderly parents or adult children
• Home Office Additions: Dedicated workspace separated from living areas

We handle all aspects of home additions including foundation work, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC integration, interior finishing, and exterior siding/stucco matching. Our attention to detail ensures additions blend perfectly with existing structures, maintaining architectural cohesion and property value.

Whole House Renovations

Comprehensive renovations transform dated houses into modern homes perfectly suited to your lifestyle. Whether you've purchased a fixer-upper or want to update your long-time home, we manage complete renovations that address structure, systems, and aesthetics.

Whole house renovation typically includes:

• Kitchen and bathroom complete remodels
• Updated flooring throughout (tile, hardwood, luxury vinyl)
• Interior paint and finish work
• New lighting fixtures and electrical updates
• Plumbing system upgrades
• HVAC system replacement or upgrades
• New windows and doors
• Updated roof and exterior finishes
• Structural repairs and improvements
• Insulation upgrades for energy efficiency

We coordinate all trades, manage the project timeline, handle inspections, and ensure every detail meets your expectations. Living through renovation can be challenging, so we work efficiently to minimize disruption while maintaining quality standards.

Bathroom Remodeling

Bathrooms are among the most important rooms in your home, used daily and critically important for resale value. We transform outdated, dysfunctional bathrooms into beautiful, efficient spaces with modern fixtures, proper ventilation, and layouts that work for your family.

Our bathroom remodeling services include:

• Complete layout redesign and space optimization
• Custom tile work for floors, showers, and walls
• Vanity installation with ample storage
• Walk-in showers and soaking tubs
• Frameless glass shower enclosures
• Modern lighting and electrical upgrades
• Plumbing fixture installation
• Heated floors and towel warmers
• Ventilation system installation
• Accessibility modifications (grab bars, walk-in tubs, curbless showers)

We understand Florida's moisture challenges and use proper waterproofing techniques, mold-resistant materials, and adequate ventilation to ensure bathrooms stay beautiful and functional for decades.

Garage Conversions

Converting garage space into livable square footage is a cost-effective way to add room to your home. Popular in Florida where garages often store little more than lawn equipment, garage conversions create bonus rooms, home offices, guest suites, or rental apartments.

Garage conversion includes raising the floor to match the house, insulating walls and ceiling, installing HVAC, adding windows for natural light, running electrical and plumbing, installing flooring and finishes, and converting the garage door opening to match your home's exterior. We ensure conversions meet building codes and integrate seamlessly with your existing home.

Outdoor Living Spaces

Florida's climate makes outdoor living spaces extremely valuable. We design and build covered patios, screened enclosures, outdoor kitchens, and pool houses that extend your living space into the outdoors.

Outdoor living projects include:

• Covered Patios: Weather protection for outdoor furniture and entertaining
• Screened Enclosures: Bug-free outdoor space for year-round enjoyment
• Pool Enclosures: Screen rooms protecting pools from debris
• Outdoor Kitchens: Built-in grills, refrigerators, and prep areas
• Pergolas & Gazebos: Shade structures adding architectural interest
• Deck Construction: Wood or composite decking for elevated outdoor spaces

We use materials designed for Florida's harsh sun, humidity, and occasional hurricanes—pressure-treated lumber, composite materials, aluminum framing, and impact-resistant screening. Proper construction ensures outdoor spaces remain beautiful and functional with minimal maintenance.

Accessibility Modifications

Aging in place or accommodating family members with mobility challenges requires home modifications. We provide compassionate, expert accessibility remodeling that maintains your home's beauty while improving function and safety.

Accessibility modifications include:

• Wheelchair ramps and zero-threshold entries
• Widened doorways and hallways
• Walk-in tubs and curbless showers
• Grab bars and handrails
• Roll-under sinks and accessible counters
• Stair lifts and residential elevators
• Improved lighting and electrical outlets
• Non-slip flooring materials

Hurricane Preparedness & Upgrades

Living in Florida means preparing for hurricane season. We provide construction services that improve your home's storm resistance including impact windows and doors, reinforced garage doors, roof upgrades, hurricane shutters, and structural reinforcement. These improvements provide peace of mind and often reduce insurance premiums.

Our Residential Construction Process

1. Initial Consultation

We meet at your home to understand your goals, assess existing conditions, discuss budget parameters, and answer questions. This free consultation helps us both determine if we're the right fit for your project.

2. Design & Planning

We develop design options, create floor plans, specify materials and finishes, and prepare detailed estimates. For complex projects, we coordinate with architects and engineers to ensure proper design and structural integrity.

3. Permits & Engineering

We handle all permit applications, engineering requirements, and code compliance documentation. This ensures your project meets Florida building codes and passes all required inspections.

4. Pre-Construction Preparation

Before construction begins, we finalize material selections, order long-lead items, schedule subcontractors, and establish site logistics. This planning prevents delays once work commences.

5. Construction Phase

Our experienced crews execute the work with attention to quality, safety, and cleanliness. We provide regular updates, address concerns promptly, and keep projects on schedule. You'll always know what's happening and what to expect next.

6. Final Walkthrough & Warranty

We conduct a comprehensive walkthrough, address any final items, demonstrate how systems work, and provide warranty documentation. We're not satisfied until you're completely happy with your new space.
