Our Services

We specialize in the complete range of home addition work that Portland homeowners need.

Kitchen & Bathroom Expansions

Many Portland homes built decades ago have undersized kitchens and single bathrooms. We extend these spaces with proper ventilation, modern wiring, and durable finishes that match your existing home.

Kitchen additions require careful coordination with plumbing and gas lines. We handle waterproofing and tile work to Portland standards. Bathroom expansions include ventilation upgrades that meet code and prevent moisture damage in our wet climate.

Second-Story Additions

Adding a second story maximizes lot value without expanding your footprint—ideal for tight Portland neighborhoods. We reinforce existing foundations, match rooflines, and ensure proper load distribution through every floor.

This work requires structural engineering and code compliance. We manage foundation evaluations, lateral bracing, and stairwell planning. Your existing home stays occupied while we build safely above.

Bedroom & Living Room Additions

Growing families need more bedrooms. We build attached additions that blend seamlessly with your roof, siding, and foundation. Light, livable spaces that feel like they were always part of your home.

Living room additions give you flexible open space for entertaining. We integrate HVAC zoning so your existing system handles new square footage efficiently. Proper insulation and windows beat Portland's gray winters.

ADU & Accessory Dwelling Unit Construction

Portland's zoning now allows detached ADUs on many residential lots. We design and build code-compliant units—studios to one-bedroom—with separate utilities, kitchens, and bathrooms. A rental income stream or multigenerational housing solution.

ADU work involves setback requirements, utility separation, and parking considerations. We navigate Portland's permitting process and deliver turnkey units ready for occupancy.
