How to Choose a Home Addition Contractor in DFW

The questions that separate an addition specialist from a generalist who'll squeeze you in between bigger jobs.

Updated June 2026 · Awesome Additions · Sample editorial content

Additions are technically demanding and most general contractors treat them as side work. Here's how to vet a builder.

Ask these questions

  • Do you pull permits for every project? The right answer is always yes.
  • Who is my single point of contact? You want one accountable PM, not a rotating cast.
  • Can I see the schedule and scope in writing before I sign?
  • Do additions are your primary work, or filler between big builds?
  • How do you protect my home while I live in it?

What we'd point to

Our answers are The AG Standard: permits first, one PM, a written schedule and warranty, and additions as the only thing we do. Compare any builder against that bar.
