Planning Room Addition in Alhambra

To set a clear direction for your home addition, we start by letting you explain the problem you plan to solve.

Our representative will ask about the type and size of room addition or extension you want, where you want it positioned, the features and systems you need to be installed, and your desired outcome. With these guiding questions, we will help you define the project scope and understand your goals.

Armed with our plans and designs, we will present your Alhambra room addition project to the city’s Planning Division to approve the project and move to the Building Division to get the necessary permits.

For construction, we will ensure the exterior and interior plans meld functionally and aesthetically with the existing infrastructure of your home. The new room must not represent over 1/3 of the length of the home when viewing it curbside.

Our construction team also pays special attention to different features, such as load-bearing components, roof lines, elevations, and the placements of windows and doors, to ensure the structural integrity of your entire home and the new room addition are sound.

Types of Room Additions in Alhambra

When you come to us for your Alhambra home addition project, our team will take a bigger focus on boosting your home value and lifestyle.

Here are some of the different options that you can choose from:

Bump Outs

Most bump-out add-ons we do in Alhambra allow you to add space to your home without having to do any foundation work. Bump outs hang over the existing edges of your main house and make an existing room more spacious.

One of the most common bump-out additions in Alhambra are the kitchen and bathroom extensions because they are the easiest way to add square footage.

Conventional Home Addition

This is a multi-room structure built directly on your existing home to increase your livable square footage significantly. We consider your home’s architectural style and details to ensure they can merge and become one big house naturally.

The addition can be any room such as a dining room, great room, guest bedroom, family room, bathroom or even a master bedroom

Sunroom Addition

Also known as the Four Seasons Rooms, modern sunrooms are a great choice because they can be diverse in their design. They offer all the benefits of added square footage while bringing the outdoors closer. The added features can even be alternatives to a bump-out or full-scale addition to houses.

Conversion Addition

By adding interior elements like flooring, ceiling, windows and replacing the open entries with solid walls, we can transform your attic space and garage into living rooms or bedrooms as per your need. They are easier to convert into living spaces since most of the structural elements required are already pre-existing.

Other most sought-after type room addition in Alhambra include:

Bathroom Additions

Bathroom additions can include many types of functionality and safety features, and there is no end to the creativity that you can apply. A beautiful new bathroom addition can include: Freestanding tub, Walk-in shower, Safety and accessibility features, Dual vanities, and a Modern design.

Kitchen Additions

Adding to or creating a whole new room for a kitchen can give you the kitchen space you have dreamed of. We can add islands, bars, new oven and stove enclaves, breakfast nooks, incredible backsplashes and details that will improve the space.

Our Alhambra Room Addition Process – Design and Build

Our unique design-build process ensures your room addition project is completed with outstanding results from our first meeting until the last day of the project.

1. At your first home appointment with Queen Remodeling, we discuss your overall needs, evaluate how to incorporate the new space, and review the planning and building process with your design ideas in mind.
2. To begin the design process, we measure the existing structure and review your property conditions to finalize our details on both the structural and space designs.
3. Once you are satisfied with the designs, we will present the proper documents to Alhambra Planning and Building Divisions for approval.
4. With plans and permits resolved, we work with you from material selections through construction to ensure that every detail is added to your liking.
5. Before handing over, the city of Alhambra inspectors will do their quality checks and offer their final approval for occupation.

First Floor Addition in Alhambra

If you need substantial new square footage, another viable option is expanding your home upward. We can nearly double your interior space by building a full second-story home addition onto your home or opt for a second-floor expansion to a specific section of your home.

Here are the factors we take into consideration;

1. The first consideration for your first-floor addition is the condition or structural soundness of the existing house to support the additional loads of the addition. We will assess the house to ensure its load-bearing capacity is sound.
2. Your property’s size and shape will also play a big role in our design and planning decisions. If you have a large backyard, an addition won’t have as much impact as it would if your rear yard is relatively small.
3. Alhambra home addition zoning restrictions have regulations regarding setbacks, which limit how close you may build next to your neighbor’s property line and how high you can build a home.

With a second-story addition in Alhambra, you will now have extra space upstairs, allowing you to reimagine the downstairs completely. It is an opportunity to create a new layout that works much better for your family by merging rooms or creating open-concept floor plans, for example.
