Marietta homeowners in the 30064 and 30066 zip codes who love their neighborhood but need more space are increasingly choosing to add rather than move — especially with the current market making relocation expensive. The mix of lot sizes across Marietta means every addition requires a site-specific plan for setbacks, drainage, and tie-in points.

Our familiarity with Cobb County permitting means we know the review timelines and documentation requirements before we submit — which avoids the delays that catch out-of-area contractors off guard.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a addition project take in Marietta?

Home additions typically take 4–6 months from permit approval to final inspection. Permit and plan review in Cobb and Cherokee counties adds 6–10 weeks before construction begins — we factor this into the overall timeline from day one.

My home is a 1980s colonial in East Cobb — what should I know before starting a renovation?

East Cobb colonials from the 1980s are solid homes, but they carry the hallmarks of their era: galley kitchens, fiberglass bathroom surrounds, aluminum wiring in some cases, and original HVAC systems that may need updating when walls are opened. We always assess these conditions upfront so we can budget accurately and avoid mid-project surprises.
