Our team will be doing the work but being the homeowner you should also know a bit about the process. Here are the details for prospective homeowners who are pondering over the idea of adding a room.

You must assess the scope of work

One of the first factors will be to assess the scope of work and there is a need to do some research. Which part of the home do you want the addition to? You must also communicate to us the additional square feet that you require. Do you want to incorporate some designs into this space? This is the communication, which should come from your end and then our team will communicate to you, the necessary cash burn, which the project will incur. You must start such projects with the cash in hand. You could also keep some excess cash to meet unforeseen expenses. If you are short on cash, you can always take a loan or line of credit.

The permits

Once we have a proper idea of the job to be done, the next important step is to obtain the permits. We are ready to help out because you perhaps do not have the right contacts in the municipality. It will take plenty of time if you make rounds of the municipality, but we will do it a lot quicker. There might also be a need to post the permits on the walls of your home and we will look into these issues.

Understand the work process

Let us now discuss the core work process and there is much to do here. Our team will be hard at work and let me go through the process for homeowners. Here are the details.

• The first step is to prepare the site and we will bring in a piece of earthmoving equipment to strip it to level. We will remove obstructions with your permission so that heavy equipment can access the site.
• The next step will be to build a foundation and the process will take a few days of digging, pouring, and curing. You might need a full-scale foundation like a new home and we will assess the needs on your worksite.
• As the foundation concrete is cured, we will frame the structure, and at that moment, the floor, walls, and roof should be in place. The framing of the structure should be done quickly. It can at the most take a day or two.
• In the next stage, we will look to add a wall and roof sheathing. This is the stage when we look to give the structure proper protection against the harsh weather.
• There is more to do and in the next stage, our team will install the doors and windows.
• We will next look to add crucial services such as electrical lines and the AC unit. This is the stage when we will include important aspects such as pipes, electrical wirings.
• If you desire we will then add insulation to the new room and even perhaps add drywall. You could communicate to us the desired insulation and we will install it.
• We will then finish the interior and address the designs, which you may have desired for this space.
