Additions and remodeling in Temple City, Los Angeles County
Home additions in Temple City
Temple City home additions that let the family stay home through the build, with a sealed opening near the end and drawings checked against city zoning.
Can the kids stay in their own rooms while the addition goes up? For a Temple City house, in most cases they can. The new bedroom or family room is framed against the outside of the existing walls, so school nights, meals and bedtime carry on as usual. The few days that do reach inside are named ahead of time in writing, so you can plan around them well before the crew needs the hallway.
The days the work comes inside
Most of the build happens in the yard: footings, framing, roofing and the exterior finish. The work moves indoors only when the new room is joined to the old one, and when wiring, plumbing or ductwork from the existing house is extended into it. Before the wall between them comes down, we seal the opening with plastic sheeting and protect the floors along the route crews use. Water and power are shut off only on dates agreed with you, and those steps are bunched into as few days as the work allows.
Temple City zoning and the look of the house
Plans for an addition go to the City of Temple City for review before a building permit is issued. The reviewer measures the proposed room against the parcel's limits on yard depth, roof height and lot coverage, and checks that the engineering carries the new loads to the ground. Our drawings also spell out how the addition will match what is already there: the same roof pitch and eave depth, the same siding or stucco texture, and windows that share the style of the existing ones. That way the new room blends in when seen from the sidewalk.
