Home Additions
Home . Home Additions
Do you need more space but are unwilling to move to a different house? Do you long for a secluded office space to separate your work and home life? A home addition, or adding more living space to an existing property, might be for you. RDP can make the process manageable and stress-free so you can focus on what you need to focus on.
Our Process
As with all our projects, we believe most home renovation projects have five distinguishable phases. These five phases also signify the project’s progress towards final delivery.
Initial Consultation: We want to ensure we’re on the same page from the start of the home addition project. So, our first meeting will discuss whether we can add the room according to local regulations. We’ll need to ensure that the addition’s scope is within the property limits & the local/HOA build codes. In addition to the project’s scope, we’ll establish preliminary estimates on timeline & budget, and conduct a lot survery to check for potential problems that can alter the final design or come up during construction.
Planning & Design: After our first meeting, you’ll meet with our in-house architect & design team to begin planning & designing the home addition. Depending on the scope of the project, the design of the home addition can be minimal to allow flexibility to change the space as needed or be purpose-built to meet specific requirements.
Approvals & Permits: Once our team of experts deems the design complete and up to your specifications, we’ll seek your approval for the final design. Included with the final design are the expected timeline, budget, and expectations during construction for your approval. Once everything is approved, we can begin construction, as we’ll have permits ready.
Construction: It is time for our construction crew to come in and begin preparing the construction sight. Most of the collaborative effort is finished by this point in the project; however, you’ll get to watch as your home addition is completed before your eyes. We’ll also be updating you on any unexpected issues that come up during construction.
Final Delivery: Once construction of the addition is nearly finished, we’ll conduct a walk-through of the near-finished space with you. We’ll be able to inspect our work and make sure everything is perfect and if some adjustments need to be made. We’ll review the warranty and our tips for maintaining the space. After everything has been punched off our punch list, the addition renovation is officially completed, and you can begin to utilize your completed addition!

Reasons To Build A Home Addition
Many variables are at play when researching whether or not a home addition is suitable. Here are a couple of compelling reasons to build an addition to a home:
Need Space, But Don’t Want To Move: Sometimes, the location of the existing home is just perfect. So, instead of moving into a bigger space in a different location, adding space to the existing home is a suitable alternative.
Add Value To Your Home: You know what sounds better than a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home? A four-bedroom, two-bathroom home! Potential buyers like seeing extra space in the home. Adding more living space to your existing home can increase its selling price or be the difference in the sale.
Potential Income Source: If your local city allows it, you can build an addition and convert it into an Airbnb rental or an ADU to create an additional income stream.
Flexible Space: Having extra space in your home will always be helpful in some way. One month, you might use the space to store things; the next month, it might be a bedroom for a visiting guest.
