Wyckoff borders Allendale, so our office is close by. We design and engineer additions, second stories, renovations and new homes for Wyckoff homeowners.
Wyckoff is a residential township of about six and a half square miles with a strong sense of place, open spaces such as Maple Lake and Russell Farms, and the historic Terhune House dating to 1737. About nine in ten homes are owner occupied, and many families here choose to expand rather than move.
That makes additions and second stories the most common home projects in Wyckoff. Whether it is a new primary suite over the garage, a larger kitchen and family room across the back of the house or a full second floor on a ranch, our architects and engineers design it together so the drawings are complete and buildable.
Licensed architects and professional engineers on one team, one contract and one set of signed and sealed drawings. See all of our services.
Rear, side and wraparound additions for kitchens, family rooms and primary suites, with the existing house evaluated by our engineers.
New floors over ranches, capes, garages and one story wings, with foundations and framing checked and reinforced as needed.
Whole house and partial renovations, wall removals and open plans, basements and attics, with structure and systems designed in house.
Ground up single family homes and teardown rebuilds, from site planning to sealed construction drawings.
Decks, covered porches, pergolas and garages engineered for footings, ledgers and loads.
Beam replacements, foundation fixes and engineer's letters for homeowners, buyers and insurers.
In New Jersey, most additions and structural renovations need zoning approval from the town before the construction permit, and the construction permit itself is reviewed under the state Uniform Construction Code. When a design needs relief from a setback, coverage or height limit, it goes to the town's land use board for a variance hearing.
Wyckoff's neighborhoods have different lot sizes and setbacks, so we confirm the limits for your zone before design. If a variance would make the best design possible, we prepare the drawings for the hearing and explain what the board will review.
Ranches and capes are common candidates for going up. We check the existing foundation and framing early and design the structure for the new floor, so there are no surprises at bid time.
However your project is approved, we deliver signed and sealed drawings to you, support you and your contractor through the permit submission and answer the building department's review comments in house. Read how a project moves from consultation to close out on our process page.
