Room Additions in Hempstead
Many Hempstead houses are old: in ZIP 11550, 18% of housing units were built in 1939 or earlier and 15% in the 1940s. An addition to a house of that age means matching its framing and roof and checking whether the foundation, heating and electrical service can take more. Each project starts with local zoning limits. Goodhaus does not do the work; it is a free service that puts owners in touch with independent addition contractors.
