San Diego craftsman framing a new 400-sq-ft living room addition
Home Additions
We pour new stem-wall foundations, match rooflines, and integrate HVAC and electrical so the extra square footage feels like it was always there. Every load-bearing beam is engineered to city code and signed off by our in-house permit tech.

Reviews

What San Diego homeowners say.

"Ground Up added a 380-sq-ft master suite above our garage. The new staircase aligns perfectly with the existing hallway and the tile match is flawless. They finished two days early and left the site cleaner than they found it."

David R.
Room Addition

"Our detached ADU rents for $2,400 a month. Ground Up handled the sewer lateral, installed separate electrical, and even landscaped the pathway to the unit. City inspector passed every phase on the first try."

Lisa M.
ADU Construction

"We ripped out a 1990s kitchen and gained an island with seating for four. The crew rerouted plumbing through the slab so we could keep our hardwood floors intact. Communication was daily via text updates."
