Types Of Home Additions We Can Build
Bump-out addition: This is a small-scale addition that extends an existing room by a few feet, typically to create more space or add a specific feature like a window seat or storage area.
Room addition: This involves adding a new room or rooms to the existing structure, such as a bedroom, bathroom, or family room. Room additions can be built on any level of the home, including the basement or attic.
Sunroom or four-season room: These are glass-enclosed spaces designed to provide natural light and additional living space while allowing homeowners to enjoy the outdoors year-round.
Second-story addition: This type of addition involves adding an entire new level to a one-story home or extending the living space of a two-story home. This can significantly increase the square footage of the home and may include new bedrooms, bathrooms, or living areas.
Garage conversion: This involves converting an existing garage into living space, such as a bedroom, office, or family room. This type of addition is popular for adding square footage without altering the home's exterior appearance.
In-law suite or accessory dwelling unit (ADU): This is a separate living space within the main home or a detached structure on the property, designed to accommodate extended family members or renters. In-law suites typically include a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living area.
Basement conversion: Transforming an unfinished or underutilized basement into a functional living space, such as a home theater, playroom, or additional bedroom and bathroom.
Dormer addition: This involves adding a dormer window to an existing sloped roof, creating additional living space and headroom in an attic or upper-level room.

The module follows Google guidelines and adds FAQ schema.
The timeline for a home addition depends on factors such as the size and complexity of the project, weather conditions, and our current availability. We can discuss a realistic timeline with you for your particular addition project. A home addition is generally a several week, if not a few months, long project.
Property taxes in Wake County are based on the assessed value of your property. A home addition may increase your property's value and, consequently, your property taxes. You would need to contact the Wake County Revenue Department to discuss how your addition might impact your property taxes.
If your home is in a historic district or is a designated historic property, there may be additional regulations and guidelines to follow when planning a home addition. Consult the Raleigh Historic Development Commission (RHDC) or the relevant local historic preservation organization for guidance.
Financing options for home additions may include personal savings, home equity loans, home equity lines of credit (HELOC), cash-out refinancing, or personal loans. Consult with your financial advisor, bank, or mortgage specialist to determine the best option for your situation.
A home addition will increase the value of your property, which may require updating your homeowner's insurance coverage. You will need to contact your insurance agent to discuss any changes needed to ensure you and your new home addition and it's contents are adequately covered.
Depending on the scope and complexity of your home addition project, it may be possible to continue living in your home during construction. However, you should be prepared for disruptions such as noise, dust, and limited access to certain areas of your home. We can discuss the construction schedule and potential disruptions with you before work begins.
Depending on the complexity of your home addition, you may need to consult with an architect or designer to create detailed plans and ensure your project meets local building codes and regulations. A professional designer can also help you maximize space, create a cohesive design, and ensure the addition complements your existing home.
At Branch Home Improvement we work closely with several local architects and designers based in Wake County, NC and can recommend someone if this is required.
Incorporating energy-efficient features in your home addition can reduce energy consumption and save on utility costs. Consider options such as energy-efficient windows and doors, insulation, heating and cooling systems, appliances, lighting, and solar panels. We can discuss green, energy-efficient options with you.

What Our Home Remodeling Clients Say...
I rarely ever write reviews, in fact this is my first one. I had such an amazing experience with Branch construction that I have to share with everyone. Of course doing an addition during a pandemic had many challenges, but they were very upfront and helpful every step of the way. I would have never imagined that our addition would look this great. My wife and I love our new addition thanks to Branch construction. I would definitely recommend them and use them again.
Branch created a small home office addition to our home. The entire project was constructed during the height of the pandemic and they constantly exercised safety measures. Furthermore, they bent over backwards to make sure every detail was to our liking. They installed "secret bookcase doors" to help us separate work life from home life. They also created a custom storage room with a special garage door to make it look great from the outside. During construction they kept us informed of when things would happen, and the final product is exactly what we were looking for. Our timelines ran longer than expected, mainly due to factors from the Pandemic. But what I love most is that they stick to their word. They quoted a price and they stuck to it, even as construction costs soared. If you want a contractor who is going to stick to their word and create a beautiful product at a fair price, you have to call the team at Branch.
We recently used Branch Home Improvement to finish our attic space into a bonus room, bedroom, and bathroom. From the beginning, Bennett and Ken took the time to listen to our thoughts, answer our numerous questions, and provide options for our space. Daniel did an amazing job of transforming our space, communicating status and next steps, and making sure that everything that was done was done right. Branch Home Improvement values quality, they are reliable and trustworthy, and the pricing was reasonable. Everyone that we interacted with at Branch was pleasant to work with, and they did a wonderful job of taking our vision and making the space even better than we imagined! I would highly recommend Branch Home Improvement and would use them again in the future.
Bennett, Daniel, Ken and the rest of the team at Branch Home Improvement just recently completed finishing our walk-up attic into a large bonus room with custom built-in shelves and a perfectly sized full bathroom. Not only do we love the finished product, but the entire experience was really great. Everyone was a joy to work with and you really get the benefits of working with a small family owned-business. Not only is the quality of the work outstanding, but they were very communicative and flexible to our schedules and wants throughout the project. They were also EXTREMELY fair in terms of price. We couldn't be happier and definitely recommend them!
Branch Home Improvement is a top notch company all the way around. I couldn't be more pleased with the service they gave me. Bennett was my primary contact and he communicated with me every step of the way through my remolding process. From my initial consultation until the job was complete Branch went over and above what the job required. I finished 600 square feet of bonus room above my garage. We added a full bathroom including a shower. We also added several storage space with 2 sliding closets. This will be a great addition as my family continues to grow. Thanks for all you do! Keep up the great work!
