Types of Home Additions We Build in Monmouth County
Every family’s needs are different, and so are the homes across Monmouth County. That’s why we design and build additions that fit both your lifestyle and your neighborhood.
Some of the most common types of additions we build include:
- Second-Story Additions – An add a level is a great way to expand without losing yard space, perfect for growing families in Rumson, Spring Lake, and Fair Haven.
- Kitchen & Bathroom Additions – Many older homes in Red Bank, Belmar, and Middletown have smaller kitchens and bathrooms. Expanding or upgrading these spaces creates more room, improves functionality, and increases home value.
- Sunrooms & Four-Season Rooms – Popular along the Jersey Shore in towns like Sea Girt, Avon-by-the-Sea, and Long Branch, these spaces bring in natural light and connect your home to the outdoors.
- Garage Additions – Whether you need more storage, a workshop, or extra living space above the garage, this option is common in Colts Neck and Middletown.
- In-Law Suites & Guest Spaces – Designed for comfort and privacy, these additions are ideal for families in towns like Holmdel, Shrewsbury, and Manasquan.
No matter the type of addition, our goal is always the same: to create a space that looks and feels like it’s always been part of your home.

FAQ
Do I need a permit for a home addition?
Yes, additions require a permit from the local Building Department. We handle the permitting process for you to make it as smooth as possible.
How long does a typical addition take?
Timelines vary depending on size and complexity, but most home additions take about 3-6 months to complete. We provide a clear schedule before work begins.
Can you work on older or historic homes?
Absolutely. Many Jersey Shore homes have unique character, and we specialize in creating additions that blend seamlessly while respecting the original style.
How do you handle coastal weather and climate concerns?
We design and build additions to handle the coastal climate, using materials and methods that stand up to salty air and changing weather.
Will the addition match my existing home?
Yes. Additions can be designed to blend seamlessly with your home’s style, finishes, and architecture, or they can be intentionally distinct if you want a fresh look that stands out.
Can you build a bathroom addition?
Yes. Many local homeowners add new bathrooms—either as part of a larger home addition or as a standalone expansion.
How much does a home addition cost in Monmouth County?
Costs vary depending on size, scope, and finishes. On average, smaller additions (like a bathroom or bump-out) may start around $50,000–$75,000, while larger projects (such as full second-story additions) can range from $150,000 to $300,000+.
Do I need to worry about setbacks or flood zones for my addition?
Yes. Many homes are near the coast, so local setback rules and flood zone regulations can influence how and where an addition is built, along with standard lot setback requirements for Monmouth County. We guide you through all of these rules to ensure your project is safe and fully compliant.
