Foundation

Construction began in February with the foundation work for an X square foot rear addition, setting the stage for a thoughtfully designed expansion that will seamlessly integrate with the existing home.

Framing

Framing starts for the new family room, study, and hall bathroom, bringing the layout of the room addition to life.

Plumbing Groundwork

Next, the rough-in plumbing is installed throughout the new addition. This phase involves strategically placing and securing all necessary water supply and drainage lines before walls and flooring are enclosed. Plumbers coordinate closely with the framing layout to ensure proper positioning for sinks, showers, toilets, and laundry hookups

HVAC & Electrical

With plumbing rough-ins complete, we’re now ready to install HVAC and electrical systems. Ductwork is run through walls and ceilings to provide efficient heating and cooling to the new family room, study, hall bath, mudroom/ laundry, and expanded living areas. Simultaneously, electricians begin wiring the addition, placing outlets, light switches, and overhead lighting boxes according to the design plan. Circuits are mapped out, and special attention is given to dedicated lines for bathroom ventilation, and future lighting fixtures. This phase ensures the home will be comfortable, energy-efficient, and ready for modern living once the walls are closed up.

Shower Installation

With HVAC and electrical complete, the focus shifts to prepping the shower for a long-lasting, water-tight installation. Our team carefully installs a sloped shower pan, applies waterproof membranes to all surfaces, and seals corners and seams with precision—ensuring protection from future leaks or moisture damage. Once the prep work passes inspection, tile installation begins. Each tile is placed with care to achieve clean lines and even spacing, creating a polished, high-end look.

Bathroom Is Installed

With the prep work complete, we moved forward with finishing the bathroom—bringing together all the elements for a cohesive, functional space. The shower tile installation was completed with clean, even lines and sealed to perfection. We installed a new comfort-height commode, elegant cabinetry with ample storage, and a stylish countertop with an undermount sink. Fixtures were carefully chosen to match the overall design, and final touches like mirrors, lighting, and hardware tied the space together.

Insulation

The next phase involved insulating the new addition to enhance year-round comfort and energy efficiency. We installed high-performance insulation in the wall and ceiling cavities to create a strong thermal barrier—helping regulate indoor temperatures and reduce energy costs.

For the vaulted ceiling, we opted for spray foam insulation to preserve the full ceiling height and achieve the open, airy aesthetic the client envisioned. Traditional batt insulation would have required a thicker application, forcing us to lower the ceiling and compromise the intended design.

Drywall Installation

With insulation complete, the crew began hanging drywall throughout the new addition—bringing definition and structure to each space. Once installed, the seams were taped and mudded for a smooth, seamless finish.
