Washington D.C. Home Additions
Custom Home Additions That Work with the Natural Flow of Your Space
We approach each home addition as an architectural extension, not an afterthought. That means careful attention to interior flow, scale and massing, and exterior tie-in so that your added space feels intentional and cohesive with your existing home. We also approach every project with an understanding of D.C.’s unique architectural context, particularly in neighborhoods where historic preservation and lot coverage restrictions shape what’s possible.

Why Build a Home Addition?
Types of Home Additions We Build
Room Additions
Add a guest suite, home office, or family room with a layout that maintains interior flow and maximizes usable space.Second-Story Additions
Gain significant square footage without expanding your footprint. Ideal for lots with strict setback or lot coverage limits.Dormer Additions
Dormers give you more space to breathe in your home, providing an airy transformation on the inside and increased curb appeal on the outside.Rear & Side Extensions
Open up your home with an extended kitchen, expanded dining area, or spacious new living room. Our rear and side extensions respect your home’s exterior lines and comply with lot coverage regulations.Sunrooms & Enclosed Patios
Enjoy the beauty of D.C.’s seasons with a light-filled sunroom or enclosed patio sanctuary. These are ideal for lounging, entertaining, or sipping morning coffee in comfort year-round.Basement Conversions
There’s hidden potential right under your feet. We convert unfinished basements into inviting living areas, guest suites, media rooms, or creative workspaces.
Our Design + Build Process
