Build More Space Into the Home You Want to Keep
An addition can create the room your household needs while a renovation improves the spaces you already use. We review the design with your team, including structural connections, utilities, and construction costs.
We plan equipment access, deliveries, and drainage around the site. Before construction, we also discuss affected rooms, utility shutdowns, and any alternative accommodations your household needs.

Westchester County Construction Questions
When should I contact Bau?
You can contact us while considering a renovation or addition or after plans are developed. Drawings and site records are helpful if you have them, but are not required to begin.
How do you help develop a budget?
We discuss what you want to improve and what you hope to spend, then assess the work needed at the property. We develop an estimate and explain where layout, structural work, or finish choices affect the price. For a larger property project, we can review construction costs by work package or phase.
Can you estimate an addition before drawings are complete?
Yes. We can discuss construction costs and sequencing while the design develops. Detailed pricing needs enough information about the structure, exterior, utilities, finishes, and site work.
Can my family stay home during construction?
Sometimes. We review unavailable rooms, utility interruptions, weather protection, and household needs. We discuss alternative accommodations if needed.
Can you work with limited site access?
Yes. We review delivery routes, equipment access, storage, and available space. We plan deliveries, waste removal, and protection around the property and occupied rooms.
Does Bau handle permit applications in Westchester County?
Yes. We coordinate drawings with licensed professionals, submit permit applications, and work with the relevant city, town, or village and other applicable agencies to obtain the approvals needed to begin construction.
