TGA Renovated - Residential
Home Additions in Charlotte & Across North Carolina
Need more space but love where you live? TGA Renovated designs and builds home additions that expand your living area without the cost, stress, and disruption of selling and relocating. From sunrooms and primary suites to second-story additions, we build seamlessly onto your existing home so your family can grow in place.
Is a Home Addition Right for Your Project?
A home addition is one of the best ways to get the space you need without giving up the neighborhood, schools, and community you already love. Here are the homeowners who benefit most from building on.
Get Started
Growing Families Who Need More Room
Your family has outgrown your floor plan. Maybe you need an extra bedroom for a new child, a larger living area where everyone can spread out, or a dedicated playroom that keeps toys out of the kitchen. A home addition gives you the square footage your family needs without uprooting the life you have built.
Homeowners Who Want a Sunroom or Bonus Room
You want a bright, versatile space that connects your home to the outdoors. Whether it is a four-season sunroom for morning coffee, a screened porch for summer evenings, or a bonus room that flexes between media room and guest space, an addition creates room for the way you actually live.
Families Adding a Primary Suite
Your current primary bedroom is too small, shares a wall with the kids, or lacks the bathroom and closet space you deserve. A primary suite addition gives you a private retreat with a walk-in closet, en-suite bathroom, and the square footage that makes your home feel complete.
Homeowners Who Need a Home Office or ADU
Remote work is permanent, and your dining table is not a real office. A dedicated home office addition gives you a professional workspace with separation from household activity. Or build an accessory dwelling unit for aging parents, adult children, or rental income that helps pay the mortgage.
Homeowners Who Love Their Neighborhood and Do Not Want to Move
You have the right street, the right neighbors, and the right commute. The only thing wrong is square footage. A home addition lets you stay exactly where you are while building the space your home has always been missing.
Not Sure?
If you do not need additional square footage but want to reconfigure or modernize your existing layout, our Whole Home Renovation service may be a better fit. We will help you determine the right approach during your free consultation.

How We Deliver Home Addition Projects
Every home addition is unique, but the process that produces great results is consistent. Here is how TGA Renovated takes your project from idea to move-in day.
Get StartedDiscovery & Planning
We start with a detailed site evaluation to understand what your property can support and what local regulations allow.
Timeline: 2-4 Weeks
On-site survey of your existing home, foundation, roofline, and lot conditions
Setback and zoning verification with your local municipality to confirm what can be built and where
Feasibility assessment evaluating structural tie-in points, utility access, and site grading
Preliminary design concepts showing layout options, massing, and how the addition connects to your home; budget development with realistic cost ranges based on scope, materials, and site conditions; review of HOA requirements or historic district guidelines if applicable
Design & Pre-Construction
Your addition is fully designed with architectural plans, engineering analysis, and material selections completed before breaking ground.
Timeline: 3-8 Weeks
Architectural design development with detailed floor plans, elevations, and construction documents
Structural engineering analysis ensuring the addition integrates safely with your existing foundation and framing
Material selection for roofing, siding, windows, flooring, and finishes that match or complement your home
Permit applications submitted to your local building department with all required documentation; final budget with itemized costs and a clear scope of work so there are no surprises; pre-construction meeting to review schedule, site access, staging, and communication plan
Construction & Build-Out
Construction begins with foundation work and progresses through framing, systems, and finishes until the addition is seamlessly connected to your home.
Timeline: Varies by Scope
Foundation work including footings, stem walls, or slab depending on your home and soil conditions
Structural framing that ties into your existing walls, floor system, and roof structure
Roofline integration matching pitch, material, and flashing details so the addition looks original to the home
MEP tie-ins connecting plumbing, electrical, and HVAC from your existing systems into the new space
Interior finishing including drywall, trim, flooring, paint, cabinetry, and fixtures; seamless connection to existing home ensuring transitions between old and new construction are invisible

Home Addition FAQs
How long does a home addition take from start to finish?
Most home additions take 3-6 months from design through completion, depending on scope and complexity. A single-room sunroom addition might finish in 10-12 weeks, while a second-story addition or large primary suite wing could take 5-7 months. We provide a detailed timeline during the planning phase so you know what to expect.
How much does a home addition cost per square foot?
Home addition costs in North Carolina typically range from $150-$350 per square foot depending on the type of addition, finish level, and site conditions. Sunrooms and bonus rooms tend to fall on the lower end, while primary suite additions and second-story builds with plumbing and HVAC are higher. We develop a detailed budget during the planning phase with no hidden costs.
What are the zoning and setback requirements for a home addition?
Every municipality has setback requirements that dictate how close you can build to property lines, and zoning rules that control building height, lot coverage, and allowable uses. In the Charlotte metro area, side setbacks are commonly 5-15 feet depending on your zoning district. We verify all setback and zoning requirements during our Discovery & Planning phase before design begins.
Can you add a second story to my existing home?
In many cases, yes. Adding a second story requires a thorough structural evaluation of your existing foundation and framing to confirm they can support the additional load. Some homes need foundation reinforcement or structural upgrades before a second story is feasible. We assess this during our site survey and provide an honest evaluation of what your home can support.
What permits are needed for a home addition?
Home additions require building permits from your local jurisdiction, which typically include structural, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical permits. Some projects also require grading permits, tree removal permits, or HOA architectural review approval. We handle all permit applications and inspections as part of our standard service.
How do you match the addition to the existing architecture of my home?
Matching the addition to your existing home is one of the most important aspects of the project. We carefully match roofline pitch, siding material and profile, window style, trim details, and foundation height so the addition looks like it was part of the original construction. Our design process specifically addresses exterior continuity before construction begins.
Will my existing HVAC system handle the additional space?
That depends on the capacity of your current system and the size of the addition. During the planning phase, we perform a load calculation to determine whether your existing HVAC can be extended into the new space or whether a supplemental system is needed. Options range from extending existing ductwork to adding a dedicated mini-split system for the addition.
Can I live in my home during the addition construction?
Yes, in most cases you can remain in your home during construction. We plan the work to minimize disruption to your daily routine, including controlling dust, managing noise during reasonable hours, and maintaining access to essential areas of your home. The period when we tie the addition into the existing structure is typically the most disruptive, but it is usually brief.
What is the ROI on a home addition?
Home additions typically recoup 50-75% of their cost in increased property value, with some types performing better than others. Primary suite additions and bathroom additions tend to deliver the strongest returns. Beyond resale value, the real ROI is often avoiding the transaction costs, moving expenses, and higher prices associated with buying a larger home in the same neighborhood.
