Home Extensions & New Construction Services in Manhattan
At Prestige General Contractor Inc., we handle residential construction projects of different sizes.
Our new construction and home extension services in Manhattan are planned around your property, available space, and project requirements.
Complete Home Extensions
A home extension can give you more room without planning a move. It is helpful when your home no longer fits your needs. Before we plan the expansion, we assess the existing structure, the available space, and the proposed layout. Our team then coordinates construction and finishing work so the addition seamlessly blends with the rest of your home.
First-Floor Extensions
A first-floor extension adds living space at ground level. It could hold a larger living room, a bigger kitchen, or another functional area. We design the layout around your existing home and available space on the property while following the applicable building requirements.
Second-Story Additions
Building up can increase a home's usable area without enlarging its footprint. We assess the existing structure and coordinate the work to add a second story. Whether or not it is feasible depends on structural conditions, building approvals, and the site itself.
Rear & Side Home Extensions
We build rear and side extensions to make better use of your property's available space. We assess the existing layout, property boundaries, and applicable building requirements before planning the addition. Our team coordinates construction and finishing work to integrate the new space with your home.
Additional Bedroom Construction
A growing family or a change in the household may call for another bedroom. We plan bedroom additions around the available space, privacy, natural light, and access to the rest of the home. Our team coordinates construction and interior finishing so the new room matches your existing property.
Primary Bedroom Suite Additions
A primary suite gives you more privacy and a dedicated space within the home. We coordinate the layout, the bedroom construction, and the related finishing work to match your plans. If the project includes an en-suite bathroom or extra storage, we account for them during planning.
Additional Bathroom Construction
An additional bathroom can make a home more convenient and more functional. Before construction begins, we review the proposed location, available space, plumbing requirements, and surrounding layout. The final scope depends on the property's existing systems and applicable approval requirements.
Additional Kitchen Extensions
A kitchen extension provides space for extra cabinetry, appliances, preparation areas, or dining space. We plan the expansion based on how you use your kitchen and tie it to the existing layout. Plumbing, electrical, ventilation, and structural changes are made as per the needs of the project.
Family Room & Living Space Additions
A larger living area gives everyday activities and family gatherings more room. We plan additions that suit the home's layout and intended use. Our skilled team pays close attention to access, lighting, and interior finishes to create a polished, cohesive space.
Home Office Additions
A dedicated home office keeps work separate from household activity. We plan the space around its purpose, including the room layout, lighting, storage, and access. The office can be designed to match an existing home or built into a larger extension.
Garage Construction & Garage Additions
We build new attached and detached garages, expand existing ones, and take on projects that add usable space above a garage. When assessing the proposed work, we consider the property layout, access, intended use, and applicable construction requirements.
Complete New Home Construction in Manhattan
For homeowners planning a new property, we coordinate ground-up residential construction from the first planning stage to completion. We work through the project scope, construction stages, and interior and exterior finishing work. The proposed design, site conditions, budget, and applicable approvals guide the planning process.

How We Work: Our Clear Process for Home Extensions or New Construction
Every property presents its own challenges. Extending an existing home involves different considerations from building a new one. We plan each project around the property, your requirements, and the work involved.
01 | Consultation & Property Evaluation
First, we discuss your plans, budget, and timeline. A visit to the property enables us to evaluate the available space and any site conditions that may affect the proposed work.
02 | Project Scope & Planning
Next, we determine what the project will involve. We review the layout, construction details, and any scope changes before we finalize the estimate and schedule.
03 | Cost & Material Selection
We review the materials, fixtures, and finishes in your price range. Once the details of the project are agreed upon, we will send you a detailed estimate of the anticipated cost.
04 | Permits & Approvals
Many extension and construction projects will require permits and building approvals. We help coordinate the necessary filings and paperwork based on the property rules and proposed work.
05 | Project & Building Management
Our team coordinates the work on site, from the main construction stages to installations and finishing. We keep you updated as the project progresses and let you know of any unforeseen issues or changes that may impact the work.
06 | Walkthrough & Handover
We walk through the completed work before handing over the finished space to confirm it meets the agreed project scope. Any remaining work in this scope is taken care of during the final phase.
