A room addition to your home offers a great return on investment in multiple ways. By adding space to your home in
the form of a bedroom, family room, bath, dining room, or a combination of these, you’ll be adding significantly
to the value of your home. And, with the proper financing, you’ll also be able to take advantage of further tax
benefits as a result of the room addition.
This featured all-season room addition is 18x14 feet, and was custom designed to fit the home, with vaulted ceilings
and sunlight on all three sides. Our experts installed Energy Star-rated windows, doors, and insulation, and matched
the exterior of the room addition to the existing home. The homeowner, Mary, wanted to see a more visual design, so we
made a rendering of her project. Watch the video above to see more about this project.
