Another 5-star review, and this one’s a great look at what a full second-story addition and kitchen renovation looks like working with us from start to finish. Larry and his family trusted us with a second-floor bump out for a new bedroom, a new guest bath, and opening up their kitchen, and we could not be more grateful for the kind words about our team’s communication and planning along the way. We were involved early on in pre-construction and we were able to align this family’s budget with a design that worked for them. If you’re weighing a project like this for your own home in Arlington or nearby, we’d love to talk through it with you.

Most homeowners know to ask a builder about price and timeline.

Those two answers don’t tell you much about what happens after the contract is signed.

Who is actually running your project? How will you see the real costs? What happens when something goes wrong? What does the builder refuse to cut when the budget gets tight?

Those answers tell you a lot more about how your home will actually be built.

We put together 10 questions we think every homeowner should ask before hiring a builder, including us.

Save this for your builder interviews, or send it to someone thinking about building or renovating.

The vision for this bar began with an inspiration photo and the talented designers Liz Mearns Interior Designer brought it to life with their amazing design team. What was previously a galley kitchen was transformed into this moody bar that’s to die for. No detail was overlooked including the arched openings, antique glass backsplash, brass bar rail, and the matching cabinet hardware. It’s a privilege working on custom projects where every detail is part of a cohesive design.

Most builders show you the finished kitchen. Here's what's behind the wall.

Eight years ago Clayton started this company because he was tired of watching families pay for someone else's shortcuts. Skipped waterproofing. Framing that was never going to hold. Problems hidden behind new drywall and sold as a renovation.

We're two brothers building custom homes, additions, and renovations across Northern Virginia and D.C. We work cost-plus and open book, we tell you the real number and the real timeline, and we're still around after the last invoice.

Follow along. We'll show you what a house looks like before the drywall goes up, what things actually cost in Arlington and Fairfax County in 2026, and how to spot a builder who's cutting corners, even if you never hire us.

The biggest thing we saved this family never showed up on site. It happened during pre-construction, at a table, with a red pen. A 1940s brick colonial in Arlington Forest getting a two-story addition. In Arlington, disturbing 2,500 square feet of your lot triggers a Land Disturbing Activity permit. Cross that line and you’re into stormwater management: engineering, a facility on your lot, extra inspections, and a longer permit clock.
The plan as drawn was going to cross it. So we sat down with the homeowners and their architect during pre-construction and reworked it to land just under the threshold. Same house they wanted. No LDA permit, no stormwater facility, and no added months. That is not a change you catch at framing. It only happens if your builder is in the room before the drawings are final, doing the disturbance math with the architect instead of reading the plans for the first time at bid. Then we built it in just under five months. If you’re planning an addition in Arlington, ask where your disturbance number lands before the plans are done, not after. Bring us in early and we’ll run that number with you. Link in bio.
