Home Additions · Martinsburg
Why Martinsburg homeowners hire us.
A Martinsburg addition follows the lot we measure. On an older house the side yard can be small, the foundation older, and a bump-out has to respect the house that is already there. On a later lot, a single room or a second story is a different structural question. We confirm the yard, the foundation, and the structure before we lock a footprint.
Inside city limits, the Planning Department at City Hall, 232 N. Queen Street, lists enlarging or adding to an existing structure as work that needs a building permit. The city's own FAQ says new buildings or additions must also include a survey or site plan. Apply through MGO Connect. The published Planning number is (304) 264-2131.
Outside the city, Berkeley County requires a permit to enlarge a structure. The application at 400 West Stephen Street, Suite 202, asks for construction plans and a plot plan showing existing structures. If the work is inside a mapped 100-year floodplain, the county requires a Floodplain Certificate. The county office publishes 304-264-1966. We check the parcel before we lock a footprint. We price every Martinsburg addition on a free written estimate for your home.
The written estimate itemizes foundation, framing, and the trades the permit names. WV Contractor License WV062432.
