Every town and city has different requirements governing what one can and cannot do with their home.  If you want to build an addition, you must meet certain criteria in accordance with the city or town’s regulations along with State Regulations.

A professional and qualified contractor is key to any project.  A contractor can offer some insight as to what might be the best solution for what you desire or offer advice on the best products suited to a particular project and so on. 

In addition to a Contractor, you may also need to use the services of an Architect; you can find listings in your local phone book or by going to:
