Home Addition Contractor in Encino
We converted a 400-square-foot garage in Encino into a one-bedroom, one-bath rental unit with its own kitchen, and it received a certificate of occupancy. That job is on our projects page. It shows how much space Encino lots already have. North of Ventura Boulevard, most flat lots can fit a garage conversion, a detached ADU, or a rear addition. South of Ventura, the Baseline Hillside Ordinance limits size and adds grading review. We check your lot before anything is drawn.

Home Additions in Encino
Start with the garage
A garage conversion reuses the existing slab, roof, and walls, so it is often the fastest way to add a legal unit. Our Encino conversion needed insulation, windows, a kitchen, a bath, and utilities to pass as a separate dwelling.
How it works
Premier Hi-End Builders is a home addition contractor across Greater Los Angeles, building room additions, second story additions, and suite additions. We handle feasibility, drawings, structural engineering, and plan check, then match stucco, roofing, and trim to the existing house.
We look at your lot, setbacks, and what the city will allow before anything gets drawn. Hillside conditions and HOA rules get checked here.
Plans go to an architect and a structural engineer. You see layout and elevations before they head to plan check.
We submit the plans to your city and handle any corrections. Plan check takes longer in some cities than others, and we give you a realistic timeline for yours.
We pour the footings, build the slab or raised floor, frame the walls, and tie in the roof. Inspections are scheduled as each stage is finished.
We match the stucco, siding, roofing, windows, and interior finishes to the existing house, so you can't tell where the old part ends.

FAQ
Common questions about home additions in Encino
Usually yes. We did it in Encino and got a certificate of occupancy for a one-bedroom, one-bath rental. LADBS checks the slab, ceiling height, and utilities.
If the lot is in a designated hillside area, usually south of Ventura, yes. It limits floor area and height. We confirm for your exact parcel.
Lot setbacks, hillside or HOA rules, and how the new room should connect to the house. We check feasibility before drawings so you are not paying for a plan the city will reject. The free LA Remodel Decision Sheet lists what to settle before you call an architect.
Living space additions, second story additions, extra bathrooms, home offices, and guest or primary suites. Many owners pair an addition with a kitchen remodel so one crew handles both.
