Home Additions in Maryland — Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a home additions project typically take in Maryland?
Timelines vary by scope, but most Maryland home additions projects move through feasibility, design, and permit submission in roughly 8–16 weeks before construction begins. Complex sites, historic review, or variance requests can extend the timeline. We provide a realistic schedule after the initial feasibility review.
What permits or approvals are needed for home additions work in Maryland?
Maryland projects typically require coordination with Montgomery County DPS, Prince George's County DPIE, and Maryland-specific code requirements. Depending on scope you may also need trade permits, zoning review, structural approvals, stormwater documentation, and inspections. We handle the permit strategy and submissions as part of our design-build process.
Do you handle both design and construction for home additions projects?
Yes. Capital Design Build Group is a full design-build firm. Architecture, engineering coordination, permitting, and construction are delivered by one integrated team, which reduces redesign, schedule gaps, and budget surprises.
