Home Additions & Expansions
Expand Your Living Space: Custom Solutions for Every Need
Are you feeling cramped in your living space? Home additions and expansions become appealing as your family grows or your needs change. From room additions to garage conversions, BK Builders specializes in transforming your home to accommodate your evolving lifestyle. We will explore the various options for enhancing your home and the essential considerations for effective home expansion.
Room Additions: Tailored to Your Needs
Room additions are among the most popular choices for homeowners looking to create more usable space. Whether it’s an extra bedroom, a home office, or a sunroom, adding a room allows you to customize your home to suit your needs. Our team of experienced home expansion contractors at BK Builders collaborates with you from design to completion, ensuring that your new space complements your existing structure and style.
Second-Story Additions: Expand Upwards
A second-story addition could be the ideal solution if ground space is limited. Adding a floor can dramatically increase square footage while maintaining your yard’s integrity. This approach primarily benefits families needing more bedrooms without sacrificing outdoor space. We will assess your home’s structural feasibility and design a beautiful second story that enhances your property's aesthetics.
Garage Conversions: Maximizing Utility
Many homeowners overlook garages as potential living spaces. Converting your garage into a usable area—such as a guest suite, home gym, or extra storage—can maximize your home's utility. Garage conversions not only create additional space but also increase your property value. Our team ensures the conversion process is seamless, maintaining the garage's functionality while transforming it into a stylish area tailored to your needs.
Seamless Integration with Existing Spaces
One vital aspect of home expansions is ensuring the new addition integrates seamlessly with the current structure. Skilled craftsmanship helps achieve a cohesive look and feel throughout the home. Our home addition experts at BK Builders pay meticulous attention to detail, from matching roofing styles to using similar materials and finishes, ensuring that your expansion feels like a natural part of your home.
Navigating Permitting and Zoning Regulations
Undertaking a home expansion project involves navigating local zoning laws and obtaining necessary permits. We guide you through the permitting process, ensuring all regulations are met. Our experience handling permits and local codes allows us to manage these requirements effectively, minimizing potential delays and complications. Our goal is to provide a stress-free experience so you can focus on your vision.
Budgeting for Your Home Expansion
Budgeting effectively is a crucial step in planning your home addition or expansion. A clear financial plan helps you manage costs and keeps your project on track. Here are key considerations for successful budgeting:
Establish a Clear Budget
Define your overall budget for the home addition, including a range for unexpected costs.
Detailed Estimates
BK Builders provides transparent pricing and accurate estimates before project initiation to help you understand where your money will go.
Consider All Costs
Factor in expenses beyond construction, such as permits, design fees, and any potential landscaping.
Prioritize Features
Decide which features are most important and allocate funds to prioritize your needs.
Expect the Unexpected
Set aside a contingency fund (around 10-15% of the total budget) for unforeseen expenses that may arise during construction.
Explore Financing Options
Discuss financing options with your contractor to determine the best approach for your budget.
Review Regularly
Monitor expenses throughout the project to ensure you remain within budget and make adjustments as needed.
Proper budgeting is the foundation of a successful home expansion. At BK Builders, we’re committed to working with you to find the best options that align with your financial goals while delivering quality craftsmanship.

What our customers are saying
"Brian was responsive, responsible, honorable, had excellent subcontractors. He was readily available and stopped by daily to check on progress. His work quality is superior and we are very pleased with our addition/remodel. We found working with Brian to be a very positive experience and recommend him highly."
- Jane S
"Brian and his crew doubled the size of our house last year (while we lived in it). He and all of his subcontractors were wonderful and did a great job! We couldn't be happier with the way things turned out. Everyone was polite and the work was done quickly and well. I highly recommend Brian!"
- Emily G.
"We used BK Builders to finish our attic. Work started at the end of 2019 and wrapped up March/April 2020. We had a bit over 700 square feet to finish. We put in a large open area, bathroom, office and two good sized closets. Brian and team were great to work with. Brian was very clear on costs all the way through and always easy to reach. As with all jobs there were a few bumps in the road but all were minor, resolved quickly, and we were very happy with how they were addressed. Great work all around and especially happy with the finished bathroom, the woodwork and painting. Definitely would use BK again!"
