Through my 16 years in construction, I’ve learned that successful home additions should feel like they’ve always been part of your house.
Today, I’ll share insights about creating seamless additions, based on real project experiences.
Major Addition Success
Lisa Loaring’s comprehensive home addition project demonstrates our expertise in creating natural-feeling extensions:
“We did a large home renovation and they were flawless in all aspects of the job. We added on a bedroom, ensuite and walk in robe. We also renovated the old kitchen, laundry and bathroom including taking out walls to open it all up… It was all the little things that also impressed us – the job site was always left clean, all the aspects of the job were explained in detail with all our questions answered honestly and accurately, all the time frames we were given were met, the quality of workmanship was extremely high.”
This detailed feedback highlights crucial elements of successful additions:
- Seamless integration
- Quality workmanship
- Timeline adherence
- Site management
- Clear communication
