Custom Home Additions to Fit Your Lifestyle
We believe an addition should be a natural extension of your home. Our team has the expertise to design and construct a wide variety of additions, each custom-tailored to meet our clients’ unique needs.
Family Room & Great Room Expansions
Create a spacious, light-filled gathering area for family and friends. We can extend your current living space or build a brand-new great room, complete with vaulted ceilings and custom features, that becomes the new heart of your home.
Master Suite Additions
Build the private retreat you’ve always dreamed of. We design and construct luxurious master suites that can include a spacious bedroom, a spa-like ensuite bathroom, and walk-in closets, providing a peaceful escape from the rest of the household.
Second-Story Additions
When expanding outward isn’t an option, we can build up. A second-story addition is a complex project that adds significant square footage and value, perfect for growing families needing multiple new bedrooms and bathrooms.
The Art of the Seamless Addition: Our Integrated Approach
The true mark of a successful home addition is that it doesn’t look like an addition at all. This requires a level of skill and coordination that goes far beyond simple carpentry. As a comprehensive general contractor, DST Restoration excels at this challenge. Our integrated team ensures:
- Structural Integrity: We seamlessly tie the new foundation and framing into your existing structure, ensuring long-term stability.
- Aesthetic Harmony: We meticulously match exterior materials—from the roofing and siding to the windows—to create a unified, cohesive look.
- Flawless Interior Flow: We design the interior connections to ensure a natural, logical flow between the old space and the new, avoiding awkward transitions.
Let’s build the space your family needs. Call DST Restoration at 219-400-8050 for your home addition consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Home Additions
What is the difference between an addition and a bump-out?
A full addition typically involves adding a multi-room structure with its own foundation and roofline tied into the main house. A bump-out is a smaller expansion, often cantilevered off the existing foundation, designed to add a small amount of square footage to a single room, like a breakfast nook in a kitchen.
How do you ensure the new addition matches my existing home?
We take great care in the material selection process. We source siding, roofing, windows, and trim to match your existing exterior as closely as possible. Our design process also focuses on matching roof pitches and architectural styles to ensure the addition looks like a natural part of the original home, not an afterthought.
Will I have to move out of my house during the construction of an addition?
Not usually. For most home additions, you can continue to live in your home during construction. We prioritize creating a safe and clean work site and minimizing disruption to your daily life. We seal off the construction area from your existing living space until it’s time to create the connection between the two.
