Home Remodeling

You are comfortable with your surroundings, the neighborhood is quiet and safe and you like the location of your home. Maybe the time has come to add that Garage you’ve always thought about, your rental home needs a couple of extra bedrooms to perform better financially or you want to add a deck or screen porch to your home. Being informed about the steps to take before you start construction will save you time and money.

There are many obstacles to overcome when planning to add to your current home. Will the addition fit on the site, does the addition impact the septic area or parking arrangement of the home, is there a limitation for how much I can add to my home?. Being educated before you take the first step is a smart move and not only that, you’ll discover the satisfaction of knowing your investment is being properly handled, creatively redesigned and ready for a builder estimate.
