ENGINEERS // CONSTRUCTORS

ADDITIONS WE BUILD

• Room additions: family rooms, bedrooms, home offices

• Primary suite additions with a bath and walk-in closet

• Second-story additions, where the structure and zoning allow

• Garage conversions and enclosed lanais

WHAT WE CHECK BEFORE YOU COMMIT

• Zoning and setbacks: how far you can build from property lines, and what your lot coverage limits allow

• Structure: foundation, roof tie-in, and whether the existing walls can carry a second story. An engineer signs off where it's required.

• Flood zone and elevation: in Tampa Bay this can change the floor height and the cost of an addition. We check it at the site visit.

• Utilities: whether your electrical service, plumbing and HVAC can handle the extra space

HOW A PROJECT WORKS

1. Site visit. Owen Webb or Stephen Wallace measures and checks the lot, the structure and the flood zone.

2. Design, engineering, and a written scope and schedule.

3. Permits. We pull them and schedule every inspection.

4. Build. Stephen, our General Superintendent, runs the job site day to day, and the addition is tied into your existing home cleanly.

FAQS

How much does a home addition cost in Tampa Bay?

It depends on size, structure, flood zone and finishes. Most projects start at $25,000. You get a written scope and price after the site visit.

Do I need a permit for a home addition?

Yes. Additions need building permits and inspections. We pull them and coordinate engineering where it's required.

Can I add a second story to my house?

Sometimes. It depends on the existing foundation, the walls and local zoning. We check those at the site visit, and an engineer confirms.

How does the flood zone affect an addition?

In a flood zone, the addition may need to be built at a required elevation, and that affects design and cost. We check your zone before we price.

How close to my property line can I build?

Setbacks vary by city and county. We check your lot's rules before we design.

How long does an addition take?

We give you a written schedule at the site visit. Permit timing varies by city.
