Additions and remodeling in Northridge, Los Angeles County
Home additions in Northridge
Northridge home additions matched to the house, with roof pitch, eaves, stucco or siding and window trim carried over and plans reviewed by LADBS.
Will the new room look like part of the original house? It is worth asking before you call about a Northridge addition, and the answer rests on details settled early: the roof pitch and eave depth, the wall finish, the window style and the spot where the new roofline meets the old one. We note each of those on the first visit and draw the addition to follow them.
Where the roofs meet
The joint between the new roof and the existing one is where an addition shows first, and where a leak starts if the work is rushed. We match the pitch when the height limit and ceiling heights allow it, and carry the same eave depth and fascia so the edge line runs straight through. Where two slopes meet, a metal valley and step flashing go in under the roofing. Shingles or tile are picked to match the color and profile already on the roof, and a sample is held up on site before anything is ordered.
Walls and windows that match
Stucco is the trickiest finish to blend. We apply a small test patch on the new wall, let it cure and compare its texture and color with the old wall in daylight before the finish coat goes on. Siding is matched by profile and reveal. New windows follow the frame color, grid pattern and trim width of the existing ones, even when the glass inside them is a newer type. LADBS reviews the exterior on the plans along with the structure, so the matched details are on paper from the start.
