The first thing we look at in a Beverly Hills house is the wall the new room will open through. We find out whether it carries the roof, which pipes and wires run inside it, and how the floor on the far side will line up with the room you use now. Those answers set where the doorway goes and how much framing the opening needs, so they come before any sketch.

Street view and city review

Beverly Hills runs its own plan review for houses inside the city, and an addition that changes how the house looks from the street may need a planning sign off before the building drawings are checked. For that reason we draw the front and side views early and keep the new roof and walls in proportion with the old ones. Once the design clears, the structural and energy sheets go in for plan check. Questions from the reviewer are answered on the drawings themselves, so the approved set is the one the crew builds from.

Power and comfort for the new room

A new bedroom or den adds lighting, outlets and often its own heating and cooling, and the existing electrical panel has to have room for those circuits. During that same visit we open the panel and count the free spaces. If it is full, a larger service or a subpanel goes on the plan. For comfort, the choice is between extending the ducts already in the house and a ductless unit for the room alone, and that depends on how much capacity the current system has left over once the new space is added.
