Home Additions & Basement Finishing in South Plainfield, NJ
As families grow or living needs evolve, so should the home. Chamo Property Solutions
offers tailored home additions and basement finishing services in South Plainfield, NJ. Whether you’re adding square footage above ground or transforming unused space below it, we approach every project with a structured plan that aligns with your property’s layout, zoning, and future needs.
Room Additions and Structural Expansion
Adding space to a home is more than just framing new walls—it requires careful planning, knowledge of local permitting, and structural continuity. We specialize in integrating new rooms seamlessly with existing layouts, preserving the integrity of your original structure.
Common additions we build
From family rooms and home offices to sunrooms and in-law suites, we expand homes with both comfort and utility in mind. Our process begins with assessing load-bearing walls and determining whether horizontal or vertical expansion is ideal for the lot.
Roofing and exterior tie-ins
We match new roofing to the existing home’s pitch and materials, ensuring visual consistency. Siding, windows, and foundation work are all executed with local conditions in mind, especially in older South Plainfield neighborhoods.
Basement Finishing and Layout Customization
Basements in Middlesex County are often underutilized due to poor lighting, moisture issues, or lack of access. We turn those challenges into opportunities by building out basements into functional living areas that match the comfort of the upper levels.
Common basement transformations
Finished basements can become game rooms, second living rooms, guest suites, or home gyms. We evaluate ceiling height, natural light sources, and egress window requirements to ensure the space can be legally and safely occupied.
Framing and moisture management
We frame new walls with insulation and vapor barriers that address New Jersey’s humidity levels. Our approach includes sealing concrete walls and installing drainage systems or sump pumps where necessary.
Drywall, Insulation, and Interior Finishes
A well-framed and weatherproof addition or basement isn’t complete without professional interior finishes. Our team handles everything from insulation to trim, transforming new rooms into finished spaces ready for daily use.
Drywall and finishing work
Drywall installation includes taping, sanding, and texturing for a seamless look. We handle ceiling installations, soffits, and drywall repair where new work meets the old.
Insulation and soundproofing
In new additions or basement spaces, we use batt insulation, foam board, or spray foam as needed to meet energy codes. Soundproofing between floors or walls is added when spaces will be used as offices, studios, or bedrooms.
Flooring and trim installation
From subflooring to final finishes, we install LVP, tile, engineered hardwood, or carpet. Baseboards, crown molding, and door/window trim are added last to tie the entire space together.
Plumbing, HVAC, and Electrical Upgrades
Any new square footage has its own utility demands. Whether you’re finishing a basement with a full bathroom or installing ductwork for a heated sunroom, our team coordinates with licensed professionals for all mechanical systems.
Electrical panel and outlet expansion
We assess the home’s panel capacity and add new circuits for lighting, outlets, appliances, or HVAC. GFCI protection is installed where required by code.
Plumbing for bathrooms or kitchens
When new additions include kitchens or bathrooms, we install drain lines, supply lines, and ventilation. Basement bathrooms often require ejector pumps or elevated fixtures, which we handle in the initial design stage.
Heating and cooling distribution
Ductwork extensions, baseboard heaters, or mini-split systems are installed to keep your new space comfortable year-round. Proper HVAC zoning ensures temperature control without overworking the existing system.
