Home Additions
Grow into your home, not out of it, with a home addition that extends and enhances your living space.
When your existing space isn’t working for you and you don’t want to move from the house you love, consider adding onto your home with a custom addition.
At Rammik, we pride ourselves in designing and building additions that allow your home to fit your lifestyle while maintaining the character of your home.
Enhance the style of your home, add space to accommodate your changing life, and upgrade your interior so you can have the home that you’ve always wanted.
Home additions can take several shapes depending on your needs:
- Family rooms and sunrooms
- In-law suites
- Second storey additions
- Additional living space
- Garage additions
- And more
Our Design & Build Process
At Rammik, we recognize that every project and client is unique, and we consider every project distinctive. We are expansive in our offerings and we will take the time to meet with you to determine exactly what you are looking for in a renovation. Our team will create unique designs and meticulously plan to ensure that your renovation fits your needs and desires.
When you work with Rammik, whether it’s a whole home renovation or a single room, you can expect the following:
1a. Introductory Meeting
