Kitchen Additions
Bumping out the kitchen footprint — new foundation, framing, walls, electrical, plumbing, and a full kitchen rebuild integrated with the new addition. Most cost-effective when paired with a kitchen renovation already on the schedule.
Adding Square Footage to the Kitchen
Kitchen additions extend the existing kitchen with new foundation, walls, and roof on the addition side, then rebuild the kitchen across the new larger footprint. We coordinate the addition (architect, engineer, foundation, framing, mechanicals) with the kitchen renovation (cabinets, counters, appliances) so it lands as one finished kitchen, not an addition stitched onto an old kitchen.
- Foundation excavation and footings on addition side
- Framing and roof tied into existing kitchen wall
- New electrical circuits, plumbing, gas, HVAC zone
- Full kitchen rebuild across new footprint
- Cabinet and counter integration
- Coordinated finish: flooring, ceiling, lighting
