The Colony addition detail
Addition detail — The Colony

The Colony home additions are one of the most cost-effective moves a homeowner can make in this market. The Colony is a fast-growing lakefront city on Lake Lewisville with roughly 44,000 residents. Most homes here were built between 1990 and 2015 as master-planned communities. The Colony homeowners are typically young families who relocated from Frisco or Plano for the schools and lake access. Rather than selling and buying a bigger home at today’s interest rates, adding 300–1,500 sq ft onto an existing The Colony home typically delivers better financial value and lets the family stay in the neighborhood, schools, and commute they already like.

At UHS Remodeling, we handle every phase of The Colony addition projects: feasibility studies (lot coverage, setbacks, HOA review where applicable), architect and structural engineer coordination, The Colony Building Inspection Department permitting, excavation and foundation work, framing and structural, envelope matching (brick, stone, siding, roofing), full interior finish, integration with existing HVAC/electrical/plumbing systems, and final punch-list. Every project is delivered with one dedicated W-2 crew, fixed-price contracts with full line-item transparency, daily photo updates, and a written 3-year workmanship warranty.

The Colony Home Additions — 3 Project Tiers

Tier 1: Single-Room Addition ($50,000 – $145,000)

Frequently Asked Questions — Home Additions The Colony, TX

How much does a home addition cost in The Colony, TX?
Home addition costs in The Colony range from $50,000 for a single-room addition (master suite expansion, sunroom, home office) to $550,000+ for a second-story addition or multi-room project. Most The Colony homeowners spend $145,000–$310,000 on a multi-room wing addition.
How long does a The Colony home addition take?
Single-room additions take 10–18 weeks including permitting. Multi-room wing additions run 6–11 months including design and permitting. Second-story additions and estate-scale projects take 10–16 months.
Does The Colony allow second-story additions?
Yes, second-story additions are permitted in most The Colony residential zones, subject to maximum building height, setback, and lot coverage requirements. Not every original foundation is adequate for a second-story load — we run a structural feasibility check early in design.
Can I convert my garage into living space in The Colony?
Yes. Garage conversions are one of the most cost-effective The Colony additions because the foundation, walls, and roof already exist. We convert garages into home offices, playrooms, gyms, and in-law suites. The conversion requires a permit, new flooring, and HVAC/electrical tie-in.
How do you match the exterior of a new addition to an original The Colony home?
We source matching or visually identical exterior materials — brick from the same manufacturer or salvaged brick yards, stone matched to the existing, siding and roofing matched. Matching materials may add 3–6 weeks to procurement but ensures the addition does not look bolted-on.
Does The Colony require permits and HOA approval for additions?
Yes. The The Colony Building Inspection Department requires permits for any addition. Some The Colony neighborhoods also have HOA architectural review requirements. UHS handles both submissions.
Can I live in my The Colony home during an addition?
Usually, yes — especially for rear additions and garage conversions that do not break into the existing home until the final tie-in phase. For second-story additions, most homeowners relocate for 4–10 weeks during structural phases.
Do you handle structural engineering and foundation work?
Yes. Every addition we build is engineered by a licensed Texas structural engineer. We handle the full foundation scope and all structural framing including steel beams, load transfers, and second-story floor systems.
Will a The Colony home addition increase property value?
Yes. A well-designed The Colony addition typically returns 70–90% of project cost on resale. Master suite expansions and kitchen/great room extensions return close to 100%. An addition also lets a family stay in the neighborhood rather than selling and moving.
