Our Checklist
1. Room Addition: Adding an additional bedroom to a house is a typical practice, particularly for expanding families or hosting visitors. Including another bathroom can raise your home's value and provide more convenience.
2. Sunrooms and Conservatories: These enclosed areas with oversized windows let in abundant natural light. They are excellent spaces to unwind and beautiful places to use as extra living or dining rooms.
3. Garage Conversion: Adding valuable square footage to your home is expected when you convert your garage into a living area like a family room, office, or bedroom.
4. In-Law Suite: An in-law suite usually consists of a bathroom, a bedroom, and occasionally a tiny kitchenette. It is a separate living area for visiting family members or guests.
5. Second Story Addition: A second story adds a significant amount of living space without increasing the house's footprint, but it is a large project.
6. Kitchen Expansion: Making your kitchen larger can increase its use and make it seem cozier and more welcoming. This project frequently entails expanding the current space or taking down walls.
7. Bump-Out: Bump-outs include adding a few feet to the length of a room or section of your house. While this alternative is less costly than a complete addition, it can offer helpful additional space.
8. Mudroom Addition: By giving your shoes, jackets, and other outside items a place, a mudroom can help you keep your house orderly.
9. Home Office Addition: As remote work has grown more common, homeowners are choosing to build a dedicated home office area.
10. Attic Conversion: Using unused space in your home by converting an attic into a playroom, office, or bedroom is an innovative idea.
