Addition for Franklin Homes
Building an addition in MetroWest means designing for freeze-thaw swings that run all winter, snow loads on the heavy side of the state average, and a humid summer that undoes sloppy joinery. A new roof plane meeting an old one is exactly where ice and water find their way in, so on Franklin additions we detail that intersection first and everything else follows from it.
An addition is the most demanding thing a residential builder does: new foundation, new framing tied into old, roof lines that have to resolve honestly, and mechanicals extended from systems sized for a smaller house. We do all of it.
What Franklin Properties Actually Need
- The housing stock here
- Subdivision homes from the 1990s are hitting their first full exterior cycle at once, and the original builder-grade siding is failing at the same nail lines across whole streets.
- Working on the site
- Grading on these developments pushes surface water toward the foundation on rear elevations, which shows up during any deck or addition excavation.
- Permits and inspections
- The town runs an active inspection schedule and expects the permit posted and the plan on site at every visit.
What Goes Wrong in MetroWest
The bolted-on look
Mismatched rooflines, siding that doesn’t align, and window proportions that give it away instantly from the curb.
Zoning discovered too late
Setbacks, lot coverage, and septic capacity kill more additions than budget does - and usually after money has been spent on design.
Leaks where old meets new
The junction between existing and added structure is the single most common failure point, and the hardest one to fix afterward.
