Room Additions — FAQ

How much does a room addition cost in the Bay Area?+

Ground-floor additions typically run $400–$650 per square foot. A second-story addition runs $500–$800 per sq ft because of foundation reinforcement, stairs, and roof work. A 400 sq ft master suite addition usually lands between $180,000 and $280,000.

How long does a room addition take?+

Most single-room additions take 3–5 months of construction after permits are issued. Permits run 2–4 months in most Peninsula cities. Expect 6–9 months total from signed contract to move-back-in.

Do I need a permit for a room addition?+

Yes. Any addition that changes the home's footprint, roofline, or square footage requires a building permit, structural review, and Title 24 energy compliance. We handle all city paperwork and inspections.

Can I stay in my home during the addition?+

Usually yes. We seal off the construction zone, keep your kitchen and at least one bathroom operational, and schedule loud or dusty work during the day. For full second-story additions, most homeowners move out for 2–4 weeks during framing and roof tie-in.
