Preferences in type of residence, design and layout of a home is almost as unique to each person as their fingerprints. There are two easily identifiable preferences: single-level or story versus two or more levels.

Adding more levels is usually more costly as foundations will need strengthening to withstand additional weight and natural forces.

Newlyweds or small families usually start off with a single or two-bedroom house, commonly referred to as a starter home. As the family grows, children usually want more privacy and want their own bedrooms. All homeowners, whether a newlywed couple, growing family or retired couple, should always take into consideration the potential for expansion or additions to their homes.
It is wise to consult with professional licensed home builders on how a house should be constructed or for renovations of an existing structure. San Diego room additions to an existing structure require the original house plans for the contractor to determine load-bearing strength of the foundation and main posts. It is important to have professional contractors determine if the structure can bear and sustain additions without necessarily sacrificing safety during and after the renovation.
