As your family’s needs change over the years, you might find that the size, layout or functionality of your home no longer works for you.
With the increasing cost of property, building an addition is often a much cheaper and less stressful option than moving house. It gives you the chance to create exactly what you’re looking for without compromising on space or location, while also adding value to your existing property.
From adding an extra bedroom to removing internal walls to create an airy, open-plan layout, there are lots of ways to work with the existing building so you can stay in the home you love. Whether you know what you want or you’re looking to discuss options, the experienced team at General Building Co. can help design and execute home alterations that work for your family.
Whether you’d like to create a more functional space or you’re looking to upsize without relocating, we can help. Here are just a few of the most popular addition & alteration services we offer.
Home extensions.
Increase the size of your kitchen, living room or dining room to create a more comfortable space.
