Home Addition Services in Scarsdale, NY
Additions and structural projects that respect zoning, lot-line, and local building department requirements specific to each village and town. Feasibility comes before design in every one of these projects, because what your lot's zoning district allows sets the ceiling on what's worth drawing up in the first place.

Budgeting
What Affects the Price
We don’t price over the phone. These are the factors that shape a written estimate once we’ve seen the job.
- Square footage being added and the existing structure's condition
- Foundation work required
- Zoning and lot coverage constraints
- Architectural and engineering fees
- Site access and material staging on the property

Do You Handle Zoning and Permit Filings for Additions?
Yes, we run a zoning feasibility check before design work starts and coordinate architect-stamped drawings and permit filings as part of the project, so you know what's allowed before spending on plans.
What's the Difference Between Renovation and New Construction Permitting?
New construction and additions require a fuller building department filing with staged inspections, while interior renovation permits are typically narrower in scope. We scope the correct filing type during the feasibility check.
Do You Build Ground-Up New Construction or Only Additions?
Both. We take on additions, structural repairs, and ground-up new construction, managed from zoning feasibility through certificate of occupancy.
Can You Take Over a Project a Previous Contractor Left Unfinished?
Yes, we regularly assess and take over stalled projects, starting with a review of existing permits and completed work to confirm what's salvageable before proposing next steps.
Do You Handle the Architect and Engineer Relationship, or Do I Need My Own?
We can work with your existing architect and engineer or bring in ones we've worked with before. Either way, their stamped drawings are what we file with the local building department.
