Answers to common questions about custom homes, additions, and remodeling in Arlington. Learn how our organized and client-focused process delivers home construction results you’ll love.

What kind of residential contractor license do you hold?

We’re licensed in Virginia as a Class A RBC (Residential Building Contractor). That’s the highest license level for residential construction – and it matters. Many contractors in Arlington only hold home improvement licenses, meaning they can’t legally build a new structure from the ground up. We can, and we do.

So, we are licensed to build homes in Arlington and the wider NoVa. And we can build from the ground up.

Yes, we can and do. We can build from cozy infill homes in Cherrydale to expansive new builds in North Arlington.

So, whether you’re looking for a starter home or a custom dream build, we’ve got the tools and the team to get it done.

It will. And not just in looks, but in feel. In neighborhoods like Lyon Village, Ballston, or Clarendon, maintaining architectural integrity is key. We carefully study your home’s original layout, exterior finishes, and roofing lines so the new space blends in seamlessly.

Our goal is to make the addition look like it was always meant to be there.

Depending on the size of the home and the permits required in Arlington County, you can expect a build to take anywhere from 5 to 12 months.
