What home additions looks like in Washinton

Top 4 Addition Types for DMV Homes

  1. Pop-Top (Second Story)

    Doubles livable space without expanding the footprint.

  2. Rear Bump-Out

    The most cost-efficient way to expand a kitchen or family room.

  3. In-Law Suite

    Self-contained living space for multi-generational families.

  4. Sunroom/Four-Season Room

    Year-round outdoor living with climate control.

3 Things to Know Before Your Home Addition

  1. Setback requirements limit your options

    Every jurisdiction has setback rules. Check before you design.

  2. Foundation type affects everything

    Slab, crawl, or full basement — this decision drives cost and timeline.

  3. Tie-in is the hardest part

    Where new meets old is where craftsmanship matters most. Rooflines, siding, and interior transitions require expert execution.

Our pop-top gave us three bedrooms and a bathroom we didn't have. The kids finally have their own rooms.
