Home Additions

At Nenneman-Haus Construction, we build home additions that give you more space without the stress of moving. If your family needs an extra bedroom, a larger kitchen, a home office, a sunroom, or a full in-law suite, we can design and build an addition that fits your home and your goals. A well-built room addition should feel like it has always been part of the house. That is what we focus on from the start.

Home additions are one of the best ways to improve comfort, function, and long-term property value. Instead of dealing with the cost and hassle of buying a new home, many homeowners choose to expand the space they already love. We help you make that space work better for daily life while keeping the new construction practical, durable, and attractive.

What We Build

We handle many types of custom home additions based on your layout, budget, and needs. Common projects include:

  • Primary suite additions
  • Guest bedrooms
  • Family room and living room additions
  • Kitchen expansions
  • Dining room additions
  • Home offices
  • Sunrooms and enclosed porch conversions
  • Mudrooms and laundry room additions
  • In-law suites and multi-generational living spaces
  • Garage additions and attached expansions
  • Second-story additions

Every home addition project is different. Some homeowners need more square footage for a growing family. Others want better flow, more natural light, or a dedicated space for work, guests, or hobbies. We take the time to understand how you use your home so the finished addition solves a real problem and adds daily value.

Our Process

We believe a successful room addition starts with good planning. We begin by learning what you want from the space, where the addition will connect to the existing structure, and what makes the most sense for your lot and budget. From there, we look at layout, structural needs, roofing lines, foundation requirements, window placement, insulation, and finish details.

As an experienced, veteran-owned construction company, we know that the details matter. We work to make sure the new space blends with the rest of your home as closely as possible. That includes matching exterior materials, tying in the roof correctly, aligning floor heights, and creating a smooth transition between old and new spaces.

During construction, we focus on workmanship, jobsite organization, and clear communication. Home additions involve many moving parts, including framing, roofing, siding, windows, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, drywall, flooring, trim, and paint. We manage the work in a logical order so your project keeps moving and the quality stays consistent.

What Is Included in a Home Addition Project

The scope of a home addition depends on the type of space being built, but projects commonly include:

  • Site review and project planning
  • Foundation and structural framing
  • Roof tie-ins and exterior finishing
  • Window and exterior door installation
  • Insulation and energy-efficiency upgrades
  • Electrical wiring and lighting
  • Plumbing for bathrooms, laundry rooms, or kitchen additions
  • HVAC extension or new heating and cooling solutions
  • Drywall, trim, doors, and interior finishes
  • Flooring installation
  • Cabinetry and built-ins when needed
  • Final detail work and project completion

When needed, we can also help plan practical features like storage, closet space, bathroom layouts, traffic flow, and accessibility improvements. The goal is not just to add space, but to make the new square footage useful and comfortable every day.

Benefits of Adding Onto Your Home

A custom home addition can solve several problems at once. It can give your family room to grow, improve privacy, create better function, and increase resale appeal. Many homeowners also use additions to avoid the disruption of moving, especially when they already like their neighborhood, school district, or property.

Other key benefits include:

  • More livable square footage
  • Better layout and improved traffic flow
  • Space for changing family needs
  • More room for entertaining
  • Added home office or flexible living space
  • Potential increase in home value
  • A custom solution built around your property

When an addition is designed well, it can make the entire house feel more balanced. A cramped layout can become open and functional. An underused backyard area can become a bright new living space. A small home can become a long-term home.

Built for Comfort, Value, and Lasting Use

We approach every home expansion with a focus on durability and everyday comfort. That means paying attention to things like insulation, airflow, moisture control, structural integrity, and finish quality. These are the details that affect how the room feels years after the project is done.

We also understand that budget matters. Our payment terms are simple: 50% up front and 50% at completion. That straightforward approach helps homeowners plan ahead and understand what to expect. We believe in being clear about the work and the process from the beginning.

After having a very poor experience with another local construction company, I was honestly nervous moving forward with our building plans. I recently spoke with Kyle at Nenneman-Haus Construction out of Stanton, Iowa, and immediately felt more comfortable. He answered all of my questions in detail, explained their process clearly, and was very transparent about timelines, labor, materials, estimates, and the fact that there were no hidden costs, which was so important to me. What stood out most was that their estimates and timelines are written out and completely transparent, which gave me a lot more confidence moving forward. They complete the majority of their projects with their own local crew and prioritize communication throughout the process. Kyle was patient, easy to talk to, kind, and never made me feel rushed or brushed off. They also offer free estimates and were willing to come out and look at the project, which I really appreciated. Good communication and transparency matter so much when making a large investment, and Kyle definitely gave me confidence moving forward. Although I haven’t officially committed to building yet, Nenneman-Haus Construction will definitely be considered when the time comes. I truly appreciate the time he took to walk me through everything.
