Room Additions and House Framing in Nashville, TN by Nashville Carpentry across Middle Tennessee
Build out, not away.
The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

An addition only feels like part of the house when the framing is right. We lay out the footprint, frame floors, walls and roof with the correct headers, bracing and fasteners, and tie everything into the existing structure so floors line up and doors close.

We coordinate the plans, permits and inspections, sequence the other trades and keep the site tidy. When you are ready for drywall and trim, the walls are plumb, the corners are square and the openings are the right size.

Why homeowners choose it

Four things done right.

Good questions

Room Additions and Framing: common questions

Do I need a permit for a room addition?

Almost always yes. Additions affect the structure, electrical and mechanical systems, and local building offices require permits and inspections. We help you through the process.

How long does an addition take?

A small bump-out may take a few weeks of carpentry, while a larger addition can take several months with weather, inspections and other trades. We give you a schedule with the estimate.
