Residential Renovations & Additions

What to expect

We approach renovation and addition work with the same discipline as a new assembly: careful planning, sequencing, and attention to the “hidden layers” that determine comfort and durability. Expect clear communication, a clean jobsite, and results that feel solid for years.

  • Clear scope and expectations up front
  • Careful integration with existing structure
  • Moisture-aware detailing and durable finishes
  • Professional jobsite conduct and communication

Common project types

Kitchen & bath renovations: Upgrades that improve livability while protecting the building envelope.

Floor Plan Rework: Adjusting an existing buildings floor plan to flow and make better use of the existing space.

Additions: New space designed to integrate cleanly with the existing home.

Roof-Off Extensions: Building up an attic or half-storey into a full useable space by removing, lifting, and replacing the roof system.

Structural & systems upgrades: Targeted improvements that solve root issues, not symptoms.

Basement Renovations: Rebuilding or finishing out that dark damp space into expanding living space while addressing moisture concerns properly.

FAQs

How do you handle surprises in older homes?

This is a case by case basis, but we do our best to plan for the irregularities found in renovations or tie-ins for additions. When it comes to old houses, surprises aren’t really surprising and we take it in stride, doing our best to communicate what is going on with the homeowner.

Can you improve comfort and efficiency during a renovation?

As far as the final product? 100%, it’s our specialty. As far as comfort and efficiency DURING a reno, we try as much as possible to keep the work space sealed off from your living space to maintain as much privacy, comfort, and cleanliness as we can.

Do you take on smaller renovations?

It depends what you mean by smaller, but for the right project we will do any size. We shoot to take on larger scale renovations because our specialty is adjusting the building for comfort and efficiency, which can really only be acheived in a significant way if the reno is a certain size and scope.
