Home Additions and Extensions

A home addition or extension is a great way to add valuable living space to your existing property. Whether you're expanding your family, wanting to add a home office, or simply desiring extra space for leisure activities, an addition or extension can cater to these needs without the hassle of moving. Besides providing you with the extra space, these additions can significantly boost the value and functionality of your home. They allow you to customize your living environment to suit your evolving lifestyle, making your home more comfortable and suited to your needs.

The timeline for a home addition or extension can vary depending on numerous factors such as the size of the addition, complexity of the design, local permit processes, and weather conditions, among others. Typically, it could take several months from the design phase to the final construction stage. At Imagen Construction, we provide a comprehensive project schedule at the beginning and maintain regular communication throughout the project, keeping you updated on progress and any potential changes to the timeline.

Planning a home addition or extension involves considering several factors. Firstly, determine the purpose of the addition or extension - do you need extra bedrooms, a bigger kitchen, or a dedicated office space? This will guide the design process. Secondly, think about how the new space will blend with the existing structure. It's crucial to maintain architectural consistency for aesthetic and value purposes. Budget is another significant factor; make sure you account for all potential costs, including construction, interior finishes, and any necessary landscaping changes. Finally, consider the timeline; ensure it aligns with any major life events or seasonal preferences. At Imagen Construction, we work with you at every step to plan an addition or extension that meets your needs, budget, and timeline.

The value that a home addition or extension adds to your property can vary greatly depending on factors like the type of addition, the quality of work, the existing housing market, and even the specific needs of potential buyers in your area. However, well-executed additions or extensions generally provide a substantial return on investment. They not only increase your home's square footage but also improve its overall layout and functionality, making it more appealing to potential buyers should you decide to sell.
