Home Additions in Shelton
People in Shelton call Greg for room additions, primary suites and second-story additions. He's a licensed, bonded and insured general contractor out of Rainier, about 34 miles away, and every Shelton job starts with a free estimate.
On the peninsula and around the inlets, lots are often sloped, wooded or near the water, so access, drainage and shoreline rules shape the job from the start. The hard part is making the new section look and work like it was always there, inside and out.
One customer hired Greg for an addition to an existing structure: “He is a quality person to deal with and does excellent work. I would recommend him to anyone.”
What's included
Home Additions we do in Shelton
- 01
Room and bedroom additions
A new bedroom, office or family room off the side or back of the house, sized and placed for how you live.
- 02
Primary suite additions
A bedroom with its own bathroom and closet, often the most wanted addition in a house with one shared bath.
- 03
Second-story additions
Building up instead of out when the lot is tight, with the existing walls and foundation checked for the added load.
- 04
Kitchen and great-room bump-outs
Pushing out an exterior wall to give a cramped kitchen or living room the room it needs.
- 05
Foundation and site work
Excavation, footings and a concrete foundation or crawlspace done in-house, with drainage planned for wet ground.
- 06
Matched roof, siding and windows
The new roof ties into the old one and the siding, trim and windows match, so the addition reads as part of the house.
Mason County, WA
Home Additions around Shelton
Greg works all over Shelton — near Jacobys Shorecrest County Park, Dayton Peak and Goose Lake — and throughout Mason County.
Shelton is the Mason County seat, at the head of Oakland Bay on the way to Hood Canal. Shelton is about 34 miles northwest of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area.
Western Washington buildings fight water more than anything — months of rain, moss on the roof, rot wherever wood stays wet, and soils that hold moisture. A building lasts when it sits on a proper foundation with drainage around it, is wrapped and flashed right, and is built to dry out.

Questions
Home Additions in Shelton: FAQs
Do you do home additions in Shelton, WA?
Yes. Shelton is about 34 miles northwest of our base in Rainier, well inside our 100-mile service area. Greg handles room additions, primary suites and second-story additions there, and the estimate is free.
Do I need a permit for home additions in Shelton?
It depends on the project. When one is needed, Greg pulls the permit from the City of Shelton's building department and builds to whatever the permit and inspection require.
Do I need a permit for an addition?
Yes. Every addition needs a building permit, and rural lots can also bring setback, critical-area and septic capacity questions when you add a bedroom. Greg handles the permit and inspections with your county or city.
Will the addition match my house?
That is the goal on every addition. We match the roof pitch, siding, trim and windows where those materials are still available, and choose something that complements the house where they are not.
How much does a home addition cost?
It depends mostly on size, whether it is a ground-level or second-story addition, and what goes inside it, since bathrooms and kitchens take more work per square foot than bedrooms. Site conditions, the foundation and how much of the existing house has to change also play in. Greg prices each addition after a free on-site visit.
Does Western Washington weather or soil affect an addition?
Both do. Clay and glacial till soils drain poorly and high water tables are common, so footing drains and grading away from the house matter. The rainy season also shapes the schedule, so we aim to get the frame roofed and wrapped quickly to keep the inside dry.
