HOUSE EXPANSION AND ADDING FLOORS
Expanding a house by adding an additional floor (or half-floor) can have a significant impact on the overall value of your property and your lifestyle. To add a floor, it typically takes between 6 to 8 weeks from start to finish. You can continue living in your residence during the entire duration of the work, except on the day of lifting (1 day).
Hiring an experienced construction contractor for adding a floor (in Quebec and the surrounding areas) will give you greater peace of mind. Our team is accustomed to performing house expansions by adding extra floors, whether it's on a house or above a garage.
We will assess if the current structure of your house needs reinforcement before proceeding with the addition of a floor. We will also need to obtain approval from the municipality to ensure compliance with the maximum building height.
CONSTRUCTION OF A SUNROOM OR SOLARIUM
Adding a glassed-in room to your house allows you to enjoy the view while staying warm and comfortable. A solarium or sunroom is considered by municipalities as a house expansion (since a wall will be removed). Therefore, you will need to apply for an expansion permit and provide plans for the future sunroom as well as a location certificate. Our team can provide you with these plans, which will be created according to your specifications.
To prevent the rest of the house from cooling down, the sunroom should maintain a pleasant temperature without requiring excessive heating expenses. For this purpose, windows should be double-glazed and energy-efficient. Additionally, the roof, walls, and floors should be well insulated. If you plan to cover the floor with ceramic or stone, it is recommended to have radiant floor heating installed.
The exterior cladding of your sunroom or solarium will match that of your house (whether it's vinyl, wood, CanExel, fiber cement, steel, aluminum, brick, or stone). The roofing of your sunroom will also match the type of roofing used for your house (asphalt shingles, steel, or slate). If the model or color of the cladding is discontinued, we will use the model and color that closely resemble it.
