Interior remodels
Remodeling service can improve the spatial flow within the home, provide better connection to the exterior, make better use of existing space, or add modern amenities. Remodels are often be handled by your Architect. Sometimes working with an Interior Designer can be helpful.
Although many projects may not require the services of a Structural Engineering, consulting with an Engineer during the design process can save time and money especially when the goal is to create an open floor plan or to add or more windows and doors.
Home Addition Contractor
Enlarging an existing house is often the most practical, cost effective, and efficient way to gain additional living space, extra bedrooms, or modern amenities. There are often multiple possibilities to consider – from a simple one-story addition to a more complicated second story or basement addition. Our anura design team works with you as you determine which is best.
There is often a significant cost difference between the different options and local regulations might simply make it impossible or impractical to do what you had first thought. We start by making sure that what you would like is indeed possible and feasible. Contact our home addition experts in the Bay Area, Los Angeles area, and surrounding areas in california to get started.
ADU Contractor
ADU, JADU, and Guest Houses offer a range of possibilities, from accommodating extended family members and guests to generating rental income or providing a convenient home office space. Whether you prefer an attached, detached, or converted accessory dwelling unit, our experts can bring your vision to life. If you have an existing unit that needs to meet code compliance, we have you covered.
With variations or additions in size, height, style, and price, it’s essential to make informed decisions. Buying plans online may not meet jurisdiction requirements, and even prefab structures require proper installation submittal. Understanding feasibility, requirements, and costs can be challenging. Our approach is simple: your proposed design should perfectly meet your needs. We treat each project as someone’s home, ensuring meticulous attention and care in the design process. We offer our accessory dwelling unit conversions in the Bay Area, Los Angeles areas, and other California areas. Contact us to see if we are available in your area.
New Construction
Designing a new house from the ground up is a significant undertaking. It’s no wonder that custom home design has become popular among homeowners, as it offers the freedom and opportunity to design a home that perfectly suits their needs, wants, and design sensibilities. However, amidst the excitement, the process can also be overwhelming.
Custom home design or interior remodel requires extensive research and presents you with hundreds of options to consider. Are you feeling anxious about navigating the complexities of hiring a top-notch architect? Do you wonder if the contractor working on your project can bring your new home plans and imagination to life? Are you finding it challenging to set a budget that integrates the architect’s vision, city requirements, and contractor seamlessly?
Engineering Services
With hundreds of designs where we ended up removing a load bearing wall and designing a beam and its supports, we are confident and know we will be able to properly assist you.
Feel free to contact us today. We offer a free consultation for all bam design requirements. Note that before a wall is removed or opened up we strongly recommend to set up a site visit with one of our qualified professionals to assess off it’s safety and what type of beam will be needed to support the house.
Once your plans and permit set are ready, we can help you get in touch with a license contractor in your area if you do not already have one.
