Plan your home addition before construction
Need a larger kitchen, another bedroom, or more room for family? 7th Heaven Construction designs and builds home additions in Fresno and Clovis. Start with how you want the space to work and how it will connect to your home.
What would you like to add?
Bedroom or primary suite
Add a bedroom, a bathroom, or both. Think about privacy, closet space, and how you’ll get to the new rooms.
Kitchen expansion
Make room for cooking, storage, or dining. Start with how the kitchen connects to the rest of the house.
Living room addition
Create more room to gather. Consider furniture, daylight, and how people will move between the existing and new spaces.
If you’re planning a separate living unit with its own kitchen and bathroom, explore ADU design and build.
What happens before construction starts?

1. Start with what your home needs
Tell us what feels cramped or missing, how you want to use the new space, and what budget range you’re comfortable discussing. Bring photos, sketches, or plans if you have them.
2. Review your property and existing house
Look at where the addition could fit, how the crew would access it, and how the new roof, walls, and floor might connect to the existing house. Flag plumbing, electrical, or other work that could affect the layout.
3. Choose a layout and review the budget
Compare ways to enter and use the new space. Review room sizes, windows, and the connection to nearby rooms. Check the budget against the proposed layout, structural work, utilities, and finishes before moving into detailed plans.
4. Prepare plans and go through permit review
Develop drawings that show the layout and how the addition connects to your house. Submit the plans to the permitting agency and address review comments as needed.
5. Get your home ready for construction
Once required permits are issued, confirm the scope and the first phase of work. Discuss how the crew will access the site, where materials will go, and how work areas will be separated from the rooms you use.
See how we added a bathroom to a Fresno home
We framed a new bathroom, tied it into the existing home, and installed plumbing, drainage, lighting, and ventilation. The finished room includes a glass-enclosed walk-in shower and a vanity with storage.
Questions homeowners ask before building
Do I need finished plans before reaching out?
You can start with photos and a description of what you want to add. We can talk through the layout, your budget range, and what needs a closer look.
What affects the cost of a home addition?
Size is one factor. The way the addition connects to the existing house, the plumbing or electrical work it needs, and the finishes you choose also shape the budget.
