Designed as one home
A well-resolved addition considers much more than square footage. DCR studies rooflines, foundations, exterior materials, interior transitions, daylight, mechanical systems and daily movement through the home.
A clear path forward
The overview remains fixed while you scroll through each coordinated stage of planning and building your addition.

Home addition FAQs
Feasibility depends on the property, zoning, setbacks, existing structure, utilities, access and project goals. DCR reviews these factors early before developing the design.
DCR plans rooflines, proportions, exterior materials and interior transitions so the new construction relates naturally to the original residence.
That depends on the scope, access and systems affected. DCR discusses site separation, safety and realistic living arrangements during preconstruction planning.
Most structural additions require permits and plan review. The exact requirements depend on the property and local jurisdiction, and DCR coordinates the applicable process.
The timeline varies with design, approvals, size, structural complexity, material lead times and site conditions. A project-specific schedule is developed after the scope is defined.
