"Jim and crew are reliable and knowledgeable. I agree with all that Dana C in Kensington shared. We hired Jim to close in a carport for an addition by seeing the work he was completing for Dana. I then had him remodel an old garage that needed a face lift. We now have Jim building a ranch home for us from the ground up. It is going just as well. If only the prices due to the economy were not so disappointing. Materials are through the roof as a result. Here hoping for some REAL change in 2025 !!!!"

"Flagg Builders did a complete finished basement project last summer for us. A living room, game area, gym, and bathroom. Keith is a unicorn in construction. He has the utmost integrity. We had built a custom colonial 4 years ago. Flagg matched all of the custom materials and workmanship. He even went out of his way to use the same custom materials and supplier as our original builder, whom we loved. We also challenged Keith to match the custom first floor stair case in our basement. He relished the challenged and really aced it with very impressive craftsmanship. Leaves the job area immaculate after each, and often long, work days. He is phenomenal to work with not just his talent but his people oriented demeanor. Very personable and friendly. Listens intently. Genuinely cares that his customers are happy.

Yes, you can add a bathroom on a concrete slab, but the crew will need to saw-cut the slab, trench in new supply and drain lines, and then patch the concrete without weakening the foundation. Working with an experienced plumber and concrete pro keeps the structure intact and helps the new bathroom pass inspections.
schedule covers planning, permits, framing, rough-ins, finishes, and punch-list items.
Larger spaces or extensive plumbing and electrical upgrades can stretch the timeline, while a simple powder-room conversion may wrap up faster. Hiring licensed pros helps keep the schedule on track and the work up to code.
The best location depends on how your family uses the space. An upstairs bath keeps nighttime trips close to the bedrooms, while a first-floor powder room is handy for guests and everyday traffic.
Think about where plumbing lines already run, how much square footage you can spare, and what layout changes fit your budget. A pro can map out the smartest spot and handle any code hurdles.
With the right planning, you can carve out a bathroom in almost any part of the house. A successful addition requires sufficient space, proper ventilation, and access to plumbing and electrical systems. Structural modifications and adherence to building codes are essential.
This process demands careful planning and the coordination of specialized professionals who ensure that the new space meets all code requirements and functional needs.
Under specific conditions, adding an extra bedroom can boost home value more than adding a bathroom. Home value is driven by overall configuration, market demand, and functional balance. A new bedroom influences the property’s appeal in different ways, while an additional bathroom enhances living convenience. Evaluating the current layout and market trends determines the optimal choice for maximum value.
