Home Additions and ADUs in Bend, Oregon
Sometimes your home just needs more space. Whether you are growing your family, welcoming aging parents, creating a rental income opportunity, or simply need room to breathe, a home addition or accessory dwelling unit is one of the most valuable investments you can make in your property.
Accessory dwelling units, otherwise known as ADUs, are one of the most in demand projects in Bend right now. The City of Bend has set up specific regulations that govern how ADUs are designed, permitted, and built. At Modern Craft Construction, we know that process inside and out. Let us guide you through every step from design and permitting to final construction so you can maximize your investment and get it done right the first time.
What a Modern Craft Construction Home Addition or ADU Includes
Adding square footage to your home is one of the most complex remodeling projects you can take on. Here is what you can expect when you work with Modern Craft Construction.
Planning, Permitting, and Design Coordination
Every addition starts with a plan. We work with you and your design team to understand the scope, coordinate with the city of Bend on permitting, and make sure everything is built to code before a single wall goes up.
Foundation and Structural Framing
The foundation and frame of an addition have to integrate seamlessly with your existing home. We do this work correctly the first time so there are no structural issues down the road.
Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing Rough In
Additions and ADUs require all new mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems tied into your existing home. We coordinate every trade and make sure it is done right before the walls close.
Insulation, Drywall, and Finish Work
The interior finish of your addition should match the quality and feel of the rest of your home. We take the time to make sure it does.
Exterior Siding, Roofing, and Integration
The outside of your addition has to match and protect your home. We tie in rooflines, match siding, and make sure the exterior is weathertight and finished to last.
