Add space to the home you already love
Moving means new mortgage rates, closing costs and leaving a neighborhood, schools and neighbors you chose for a reason. For many families in Cooper City, Davie and Southwest Ranches, building an addition is the better answer. Many lots in these areas have room to grow, and a thoughtfully designed addition can look like it was always part of the house.
Types of home additions we build
- Room additions - an extra bedroom, home office or playroom.
- Primary suite additions - bedroom, walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom.
- Family room and great room expansions - push out an exterior wall to open up your main living space.
- Kitchen bump-outs - add a few feet for an island, a breakfast nook or a walk-in pantry.
- Garage conversions - turn an existing garage into a bedroom, in-law suite or home office.
- In-law and multigenerational suites - private living space with its own bathroom, where zoning allows.
- Covered patios and Florida rooms - outdoor living that connects to the house.
Built for South Florida codes and weather
Broward County and Miami-Dade County are in Florida's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, which means additions must meet strict structural requirements for wind loads, roofing, windows and doors. Every addition is designed with engineered plans, permitted through your city's building department and inspected at each required stage. We also look at setbacks, lot coverage, flood zone and HOA rules early, so there are no surprises later.
How a home addition comes together
- Feasibility visit - we look at your lot, your home and what you want to add, and discuss zoning, setbacks and HOA requirements.
- Design and engineering - architectural drawings and structural engineering are prepared for the permit.
- Estimate and schedule - a detailed scope and timeline.
- Permitting - submitted and coordinated with the building department.
- Construction - foundation, framing or block, roofing, windows, mechanical work, insulation, drywall and finishes, with inspections along the way.
- Final inspection and walkthrough - your new space, finished and ready to use.

Frequently asked questions
How long does a home addition take?
Most additions take several months from design to completion. Design, engineering and permitting often take as long as construction itself. We map out the full timeline before you commit.
Do I need an architect or engineer for an addition?
Yes. Additions require permit drawings and structural engineering, especially in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone. We coordinate the design and engineering as part of the project.
Will my HOA need to approve the addition?
In many Weston, Cooper City and Pembroke Pines communities, yes. HOA approval is usually needed before the city permit. We help prepare the drawings and information your HOA asks for.
Is a garage conversion a good alternative to an addition?
It can be. A garage conversion uses space you already have, so it is often faster and less costly than building new. We check your city's parking and zoning rules first.
