Home Additions in Miami
When you need more square footage, a home addition adds real, livable space — a larger kitchen, a new primary suite, or a full second story. Additions require engineering, permits, and careful coordination with the existing structure.
What home additions involves
We design and build first-story and second-story additions, coordinating foundation and structural work, framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and finishes so the new space integrates seamlessly with your home. Every addition is permitted and inspected.

What shapes this project
Structural engineering
Additions require engineering for foundations and load paths. We coordinate the engineering as part of the project.
Setbacks and zoning
Addition size and placement are limited by setbacks and zoning. We confirm what's allowed before design.
Integration
Tying new construction into an existing home requires careful detailing at the roofline, floors, and finishes.
Home Additions FAQ
How long does a home addition take?+
Additions involve design, engineering, permitting, foundation, framing, and finishes, so timelines run longer than interior remodels. We provide a stage-by-stage schedule during planning.
ADU vs. home addition — which is right?+
An ADU is a separate, self-contained unit; an addition expands your main home. The right choice depends on your goals, lot, and zoning. See our ADU vs. addition guide.
Do home additions need permits?+
Yes. Additions require engineering, permits, and inspections in Miami-Dade. We handle the full process.
