Addition to the Side

Expand Your Home Outward

A side addition expands your home horizontally by adding new space alongside the existing structure. This can be an excellent solution when your property has enough available space and you want to expand without adding another story.

Side additions can be used to create:

• Larger kitchens and dining areas
• Family rooms
• Primary bedroom suites
• Additional bedrooms
• Bathrooms
• Home offices
• Mudrooms
• Guest spaces
• Expanded living areas

A side addition can be designed to look and feel like an original part of your home rather than an afterthought. We pay attention to the connection between the existing and new structures, including exterior finishes, roofing, windows, flooring, and interior details.

Addition Above

Add Space Without Expanding Your Footprint

When property space is limited, building above your existing home can be an effective way to add square footage while preserving your yard and outdoor areas.

An addition above may involve a second-story and/or third-story addition, adding rooms over an existing portion of the house, or expanding an existing upper level.

Depending on the property and project, an addition above can provide space for:

• Primary bedroom suites
• Additional bedrooms
• Bathrooms
• Home offices
• Family rooms
• Guest accommodations
• Bonus rooms
• Expanded living areas

Building upward requires careful consideration of the existing structure, foundation, framing, roof system, stairs, utilities, and overall design. Svistun Construction can help evaluate the project and coordinate the construction required to integrate the new space with your existing home.

Create New Space on a Lower Level

A below-grade or lower-level addition can provide valuable living and functional space while making use of areas that might otherwise be underutilized.

Depending on your property, an addition below can include a basement, lower-level living area, guest suite, home office, recreation room, storage area, or other finished space.

Lower-level construction may involve specialized structural and site considerations, including excavation, foundations, waterproofing, drainage, structural support, insulation, and natural or artificial lighting.

Svistun Construction can help you determine whether expanding below your existing home or property is a practical solution for your project.

Designed to Work With Your Existing Home

A New Addition Should Feel Like Part of the Original Home

Adding square footage is only part of the project. A successful home addition should work with the existing structure and feel natural both inside and outside.

At Svistun Construction, we consider the complete project, including:

Design & Planning

We help develop an addition that fits your goals, property, budget, and existing home.

Structural Considerations

We evaluate how the new construction will connect with the existing structure and coordinate the necessary structural work.

Exterior Integration

Roofing, siding, stucco, windows, doors, and other exterior details should complement the existing home.

Interior Integration

We coordinate flooring, drywall, trim, cabinets, finishes, and other details so the new space connects naturally with the existing interior.

Mechanical Systems

Electrical, plumbing, heating, cooling, and other systems may need to be extended or modified to accommodate the new space.

Quality Construction

We take pride in reliable service, attention to detail, and quality workmanship throughout the project.

Our Home Addition Process

From Concept to Completion

Every addition is different, but our process is designed to provide a clear path from your initial idea to the finished project.

1. Initial Consultation

We discuss your goals, available space, ideas, and overall vision for the addition.

We complete the interior and exterior details and work toward delivering a finished addition that is functional, attractive, and built to last.
