Home Additions in Rockford and Nearby Communities

Need more space without moving? We plan and build room additions, bump-outs, garages, porches/sunrooms, dormers, and second-story expansions. Our crew handles design assist, permits, foundations, framing, roofing/siding tie-ins, windows/doors, insulation, and trim—coordinated with mechanical trades. Expect dust control, protected landscaping, daily photo updates, and a clean walk-through at finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you help with design and permits?

Yes. We provide design assist, finalize a plan set, and submit a permit package per local requirements. We also work with your architect or engineer if you have one.

Do I need to move out during construction?

Usually no. We phase work, set dust barriers, and schedule short utility shutdowns in advance. For heavy structural days, we’ll review safety and timing with you.

How long does an addition take?

Small bump-outs often wrap in 2–6 weeks after permits. Larger additions or second stories can run 8–16+ weeks, depending on scope, inspections, and weather.

How do you tie the new space into my existing home?

We match elevations and finishes, integrate WRB/flashings, and use proper roof-to-wall details. Inside, we blend trim, textures, and transitions so it feels original.

Do you pour foundations?

Yes. We install frost-depth footings, slabs or crawlspaces, drain tile where needed, vapor barriers, and insulation to meet local code.

Will the addition meet energy code?

Yes. We size insulation and air sealing to current requirements, set verified window U-factors, and coordinate HVAC adjustments for comfort and efficiency.
