Home Additions Westfield, NJ

Top Home Addition Firm Westfield, NJ

Michael Robert Construction is the expert in creating home additions that increase your livable square footage. Our approach is not only to enlarge the area but also boost your home’s value.

Giving You the Space You Need

Before we set out to work on any home addition, we want to understand your needs. Being the experts we are in the industry, we know the importance of proper planning and not rushing through a project. We know that an impulsive decision can build up on the costs without providing any additional value.

We don’t want this to happen to our clients. As such, we work with you and figure out a few essential factors.

Why Do You Need the Home Addition?

While you think this is an obvious question, it’s not uncommon not to have a clear plan for the remodeling.

  • Is the family growing and you need extra rooms?
  • Are you trying to boost your home’s resale value?
  • Do you want to make a grand change to your home’s overall look, or are you looking at micro-additions?
  • Do you want a bigger kitchen?
  • Do you want to move the bedrooms to the second story?

Whatever your reasons, we’ll discuss the best approach to achieving the most desired results.

Where to Start

The best place to start is to hire experts to help you with the planning. Once you’ve decided that this is what you want for your home, we’ll be right there to walk you through the process.

We’ll work together to develop the perfect plan for the most useful house additions, without removing anything. Whether it’s the size of the kitchen, family room, or a bedroom your children have outgrown, we are here to help.

Time Considerations

How much time do you want to spare for the project? Home additions don’t happen within a few days, and we don’t like rushing through tasks. In our experience, a renovation can take 2-12 months, depending on the scope.

As such, we want you to consider your overall budget, noise, and disruption of your life. In some cases, you may have to consider alternative living conditions. However, we assure you that this is just a small inconvenience given what you stand to gain from the project.

Whole House Approach

We believe that remodeling should be seen as a whole house approach, where new design and construction is seamlessly integrated with the existing structure. Our work ranges from whole house renovations and design/build custom homes to additions and floor plan changes.

Our Process

A design-build approach allows for our clients to have full control over their project as a unified process. We work with our clients from the start with architectural renderings and then seamlessly transition the design from concept to finished product. Our team is involved with every step of the process, so no details are lost through the development of the project, and our shared goal for the completed renovation is realized in an efficient, timely and organized manner. This process of syncing design and construction optimizes cost, scheduling, communication and constructability.

 

With an Architect of Record integrated into our team, and our approach unifies the client / architect / builder team leading to extraordinary results. Established trade partnerships built on years of collaboration ensure that every project has a picture-perfect completion. Our background in building science, our understanding of design, and our processes for construction management separate us from every other contractor.

MRC Process

The MRC x EMD Advantage

For clients who are looking to elevate their project, MRCxEMD joins the construction know how of Mike with the design aesthetic of Ellie Mroz Design Studio.  Together in life and in business,  MRCxEMD marries form and function, exterior and interior and makes the house uniquely purposeful and pretty. Ellie Mroz Design (EMD) brings a refined approach to design development.  Exclusive to our design-build process, Ellie Mroz Design can be tapped as a resource for interior planning early in the design phases.  Ellie works to assess the changes, achieving a level of design not often considered until the finishing phases of construction. When you add EMD to the process you can include all or select parts of the following:

Client Satisfaction

  • We chose Mike and Ellie (Michael Robert Construction and Ellie Mroz Design) to build and design our home not only because of their impeccable taste and attention to every detail, but because they joined us on our homebuilding journey. Building a home from the ground up is both exciting and stressful all at the same time. Having an incredibly creative design/build team with us, to bounce ideas off, make decisions with, and answer all our questions was exactly what we were looking for. MRC X EMD build true custom homes that are unique to each of their clients, and push the status quo of home building. We began with discussions of what was important to us, and how we envisioned living in our home. We wanted to merge the original beauty of the home, built in 1937, with our needs for today’s modern living. Mike and Ellie brought us unique design ideas that made our vision a reality. They focus on elements and details only true design experts think about, including blending use of different materials, perspectives from every angle, layering trim, unique lighting opportunities, and tying everything together harmoniously. We ended with the perfect home, for our family, with distinctive and personal details throughout. We can’t thank Mike, Ellie and their entire team enough, for not only building our incredible home but for their expertise, professionalism, support, and always pushing design to the next level.

    Stephanie, Westfield, NJ

  • My wife and I worked with Michael Robert Construction (MRC) and Ellie Mroz Designs (EMD) to build and design our new home. When we began the process we had an inspiration and a few images of what we wanted our new home to look like and they took those ideas and enhanced them greatly into a concrete vision. We could not be happier with the end product from aesthetic, design and quality standpoint. From start to finish it was an open and transparent working relationship which greatly fostered a relationship of trust, which in my mind is so critical considering the amount of financial, time and emotional investment in this type of venture. The MRC X EMD team is extraordinarily creative...they did a fantastic job in guiding the process adding their creative touches to the layout, the finer details of the build, the use of natural lighting and space, the selection of all the fixture, appliances, amenities, furnishings, etc....this was all done in a very collaborative and easy way. They also have been very responsive throughout the entire build and post-completion with punch list items. Building a house can be very overwhelming and stressful in the best of times, we will always be appreciative of how Mike, Ellie and the rest of the team provided a steady hand during the pandemic which added an extra layer of stress during incredibly uncertain times. We are very proud of the home they built for us, it is our dream home and we will continue with EMD to furnish our home. A++++

  • We worked with MRC to create our dream home. Through teamwork, inspiration from the internet and our favorite places around the world, carefully choosing the right materials and making sure the layout of the home was exactly what we wanted they were able to successfully create everything we wanted and more. The detail of execution and craftsmanship in their work is impossible to miss in our home. In addition MRC added beautiful details when it came to trim, wood work, lighting, archways and outdoor space. This process which can be very stressful was enjoyable and we all had a great time playing off each other’s creative minds. We are so happy in everything that was created in our beautiful dream home.

  • We just completed a second renovation project with MRC and could not be happier with the outcome. We have an older home and essentially wanted to completely reconfigure our second floor to better utilize the space - we essentially took off the roof and the existing second floor and started over. The MRC team worked with our schedule and guided us through the entire process. Their input and ideas are always on point, and they are super collaborative to work with. We are beyond happy....Highly recommend the MRC Team!

    Rachel, Westfield NJ

  • As a local realtor in the area for 30 years, I have seen a lot of construction. If you are looking for top quality workmanship and service look no further. Mike has an amazing eye for detail and truly builds custom! You won’t be disappointed!

    Frank, Westfield, NJ Realtor

  • We hired Michael Robert Construction for a complete home renovation and we could not be happier with the results! Mike and our project manager, Steve, were extremely professional, collaborative, and very mindful of what we were looking for. Our house was built in the 1930's and we wanted to make the house more functional but still keep the character intact. They added great details that we never would have thought of, and all of the sub-contractors performed high quality work… We absolutely love our new home!

    Angela L., Westfield, NJ

  • … Michael and his team took our vision and made it into a stunning reality. Not only did we receive excellent craftsmanship, but also a team who was responsive, knowledgeable and experts in their fields. Michael has a keen eye for detail and that showed with every walk-thru and conversation we had with him. As a bonus, his wife Ellie (an interior designer), picked out a phenomenal wallpaper for the bedroom which we get complimented on by those who see it. We couldn't be happier with our decision to use Michael Robert Construction - an exceptional experience from start to finish!

    Lauren M., Westfield, NJ

  • I have had the pleasure of working with Michael Robert Construction on several projects. The staff is very knowledgeable, they are extremely detail oriented and they take tremendous pride in their work. It is always smooth sailing working with Michael Robert Construction and I HIGHLY recommend them!

    Melanie A., Westfield, NJ

  • After meeting with multiple companies to renovate our house, MRC detailed oriented team was the difference. We are very happy with how everything came together as well as the spectacular result. I would highly recommend any homeowner to use Michael Robert Construction.

    Joe M., Westfield, NJ

  • …the team at MRC is patient, professional, and with you every step of the way through the project. The experience, attention to detail, quality, and craftsmanship, are second to none. Having an older home, it was important for the addition to seamlessly tie into the existing structure and not feel like a bolt on. In the end we have perfectly matching wood clapboard siding, matching trims, same height ceilings throughout, no strange flooring transitions, etc. MRC achieved seamless and it looks beautiful. 
Our home came out great and we can’t imagine having partnered with any other group to complete the work. Mike and the team at MRC made it happen…
