More space, matched to your home and your local code

Adding on is the most structural work a home can undergo — foundation, framing, roofline, and tie-ins all have to be engineered and permitted correctly. We manage the whole process, from feasibility and design through permits and final finishes.

Additions and accessory dwelling units (ADUs) are handled differently by each jurisdiction — the City of Oviedo, unincorporated Seminole County, and the City of Orlando each set their own rules. We build to what actually applies to your Orlando lot.

Orlando, Orange County

What a home addition in Orlando involves

We work throughout Orlando — from College Park and Dr. Phillips to Delaney Park, Audubon Park, Conway. Orlando is Central Florida's core city, spanning historic bungalows to new infill, and it sits in Orange County, part of the Greater Orlando area we cover from our base in Oviedo.

Permitting for a Orlando home addition goes through City of Orlando Permitting Services. Not every Orlando address is inside the city limits — some are unincorporated Orange County, and that changes which department reviews your plans. We confirm the jurisdiction for your exact address before anything gets filed.

Alongside Orlando, we regularly take on work in nearby Orange County communities including Winter Park, Maitland, Baldwin Park and Lake Nona.

Every Orlando home addition we take on is run by the same licensed general contractor (CGC1539321) that pulls the permit — so there is one point of accountability from the first walkthrough in College Park or Dr. Phillips through final inspection with City of Orlando Permitting Services.

Additions & ADUs FAQ

Common questions

It depends on your city or county's zoning, lot size, and setbacks — the rules differ across Oviedo, unincorporated Seminole County, and Orlando. We check what applies to your specific lot before you spend money on design. In Orlando, that review goes through City of Orlando Permitting Services, and we build their turnaround into the schedule we give you.
Most room additions run about 3–5 months from permit to finish; second stories and ADUs take longer. Engineering and permitting happen before we break ground, and we give you a schedule up front. For Orlando specifically: City of Orlando permits inside city limits; unincorporated addresses go through Orange County.
Yes — additions require structural engineering and permitting, and we coordinate both, plus any HOA or architectural-review approval, as part of the project. We do this work across Orlando and the wider Orange County area from our base in Oviedo.
An addition expands your existing home; an ADU is a separate living unit with its own kitchen and bath, whether detached or a garage conversion. They're permitted differently — we'll explain which fits your goal. If your project is in Orlando, we'll walk the space with you before quoting.
