Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a home addition cost in Tampa Bay?

Additions are a higher-investment project, and BALLENCIACE is best fit for additions starting around $60K and up. Cost depends on square footage, whether you go out or up, foundation and structural work, and the finish level. We scope it honestly during design so the number reflects the real plan, not a guess.

Do I need permits for a home addition, and do you handle them?

Yes on both. Adding square footage triggers permitting, and in Tampa Bay that includes wind-code and often flood-zone review through your city or county. We prepare the drawings and manage the submittals and inspections. We do not promise a specific approval date, jurisdictions move at their own pace, but we plan the timeline around real permitting windows.

Can you build a second-story addition on my existing home?

Often yes. A second-story addition depends on your existing foundation and framing carrying the new load, which we verify with structural engineering before committing. When the existing structure supports it, going up is a strong way to add bedrooms or a primary suite without giving up yard.

How long does an addition take to build?

A typical addition runs several months of active construction once permits are pulled and materials are on site, and larger second-story or primary-suite additions run longer. The bigger variable is the design, engineering, and permitting before ground breaks. We hold that phase tight so the build stays on schedule.

Will the addition match the rest of my house?

That is the whole point of how we build. We match rooflines, exterior materials, trim, window styles, and interior finishes to your existing home, and you confirm all of it in the 3D design preview before construction. The goal is square footage that looks like it was always there.

Can I stay in my home during the addition?

Often yes, depending on the scope and which part of the home the work touches. Because additions build onto the side or up, your existing living space usually stays usable, and we contain dust and the work zone. For larger projects we map out any disruption with you during design so there are no surprises.

Do I get to see the addition before you build it?

Yes. You confirm the footprint, rooflines, exterior materials, and the full interior layout in a 3D design preview before construction starts. What you approve is what we build onto your home.
