Home additions · Santaquin, UT
Outgrowing your Santaquin home? Add on instead of moving. We build room additions, bump-outs, primary suites, second stories, ADUs, and garage conversions, all tied into your home so it looks like it was always there. These jobs need a permit and an engineer, and Dakota handles both with Santaquin City. One honest price in writing, and Dakota runs the whole job.
Your Santaquin addition builder
Santaquin sits at the far south end of Utah County, around 4,900 feet up, and it is one of the fastest-growing towns in the county. Kids here go to school in the Nebo School District, so when a family runs out of bedrooms, most parents would rather add on than switch schools and start over somewhere new.
Santaquin has two kinds of lots, and we build additions on both. The newer subdivisions on the benches above the old townsite tend to sit on bigger, newer lots, which gives us more room to work with for an extra bedroom, a bigger kitchen, or a main-floor primary suite for a growing family. Homes on smaller lots in the original townsite near Main Street can still add on, the footprint is just tighter, so we design the addition to fit the lot and still work well day to day. Some of the ground on the benches is known for expansive, or collapsible, soil, so anytime we are adding new foundation footprint up there, we start with a soils report and build the footing to match, we do not skip that step to save time.
An addition is a bigger job than a single room remodel. It needs a city permit and a licensed engineer, because you are changing how your home is built. Dakota handles the plans, the engineering, and the permits with Santaquin City, so you do not chase any of it. You get one written price before we start.
"He knows what he is doing, shows up when he says he will, and his pricing is very fair. I refer him to numerous clients and have for years."

Done by the book in Santaquin
An addition changes how your home stands up, so it has to be drawn, engineered, and permitted the right way. Dakota takes care of all of it with the Santaquin City building department, so your new space is legal, safe, and built to add real value when you sell.
A licensed engineer designs the structure, and where the lot sits on expansive or collapsible soil, that includes a foundation built to match.
We pull the permit through Santaquin City and build to current code.
We book every inspection with the city and meet the inspectors for you, so nothing holds up the job.
We tie new space into older homes near Main Street and into newer bench-side subdivisions alike.
"Dakota just completed our basement project and did a fabulous job. He and his crew were prompt, professional, thorough, and were able to do the job ahead of schedule. Price was fair and competitive."

"Dakota was excellent with communication, fair pricing, and the work turned out incredible. I live in a 105 year old house in Springville, which comes with many challenges. Every sub that showed up was an owner operator and the craftsmanship shows it."
