The Problem We Solve

Why homeowners in Montreal choose us

Home additions are among the most complex residential construction projects. They require structural engineering, foundation work, exterior integration, and coordination with all existing mechanical systems. They also require specific permits and inspections that general contractors without this experience often mishandle. We have completed additions ranging from garage builds to full second-floor additions across Montreal, and we understand the structural and regulatory requirements involved.

  • Families adding a garage, second floor, or rear extension

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a home addition cost in Montreal?
Home addition costs vary significantly by type and scope. A garage addition typically ranges from $60,000 to $120,000. A rear addition or bump-out ranges from $80,000 to $200,000+. A second-floor addition can range from $150,000 to $350,000+. We provide a detailed estimate based on your specific project and property.
Do I need a permit for a home addition in Montreal?
Yes. All home additions in Montreal require building permits. Depending on the type of addition, you may also need zoning approvals, structural engineering stamps, and PIIA review in certain neighbourhoods. We manage all of these requirements.
How long does a home addition take?
Home additions typically take 4-8 months from permit approval to final completion. Smaller additions like a garage or sunroom may take 3-4 months. A second-floor addition can take 6-9 months. We provide a detailed timeline with your estimate.
Can you match the exterior of the addition to my existing home?
Yes. We source matching or complementary siding, roofing, windows, and trim to integrate the addition with your existing home. A seamless exterior is a priority in our addition projects.
Do you handle zoning and setback requirements in Montreal?
Yes. We review municipal zoning bylaws and setback requirements for your property before confirming a project scope. If variance applications are required, we assist with that process.
What is the difference between an addition and a home extension?
We use both terms to describe the same type of project: adding new construction square footage to an existing home. This includes rear or side extensions, second-floor additions, garage builds, and enclosed sunrooms or mudrooms.
