Expanding your living space into your front or back yard can be challenging if you own a home in suburban Edmonton. You’re likely working with a smaller plot of land than a house in the country or small town may offer, limiting your options for the type of addition you can include. However, you can work within the space you already have by building additions within your home.
From removing a few walls to installing extra storage units, our team at Peak Improvements can help you enhance the form and function of your home. Whether you want to increase your storage, have more room for entertaining, or better accommodate your growing family, we can make your expansion dream a reality. Below, we’ll discuss five different home additions that can improve upon the space in your home and why Peak Improvements is your go-to choice for the job.
Home Office
If you work a remote or hybrid job, having a dedicated space to participate in meetings, take phone calls, and complete your work without distractions is essential. Some ways we can expand the space in your current office include removing closet doors, adding built-in wall shelves, and widening the entryway. If you want a newly constructed office addition, you can work with our designers to include these and other elements to ensure you have a functional and distraction-free work zone.
Kitchen Expansion
Expanding the kitchen is a great way for homeowners who love cooking and entertaining to get the most out of their property. Some additions we can provide include a larger kitchen island with additional seating, open shelves for added storage, removing the division between the kitchen and dining or living room, and more. If you want to expand your culinary skills, you can opt for a design that features a larger stove, a pizza oven, or even a wet bar. Our designers will help you locate new appliances and finishings for your kitchen to make it the ultimate space for entertaining.
Double-Sink Bathroom
A larger bathroom is a very practical choice for couples and families. Installing double sinks will reduce the morning rush to school and work, allowing multiple people to get ready for the day at the same time. If you dislike the layout of your family’s main bathroom, expanding it offers an excellent opportunity to improve its functionality.
Legal Basement Suite
If your basement is unfinished or hasn’t been updated in a while, consider expanding it into a full legal basement suite. This type of addition usually includes creating a separate entrance, installing a kitchen and full bathroom, and a main living area. A legal basement suite is ideal for accommodating guests, aging family members, or adult children living at home. Our contractors will ensure your basement is fully up to Alberta fire safety codes by installing easy-to-open windows, so if you’re looking for a secondary source of income, you’ll even be able to rent it out.
