Local home additions for Towson homeowners
Towson is the heart of Baltimore County — established neighborhoods with mature trees, walkable to downtown, and full of homes with great bones that benefit hugely from a thoughtful remodel.
Towson is a mix of 1940s–1960s brick capes and colonials, classic two-story homes, and infill new-builds — many homeowners are updating for the next 20+ years. That housing mix matters when planning a home addition — the right scope for a 1980s Towson home is very different from the right scope for a 2005 build, and we plan accordingly.
Every Towson home addition we quote is led by Chris, the owner. You speak to the same person from first phone call through final walkthrough — no hand-offs to a salesperson, no rotating crews.

Why K & S is a different kind of Towson contractor
Towson has plenty of contractor options, but the difference shows up in the details — what's specified on the estimate, who's on site, and how the project finishes out. Here's what we hear from Towson clients about why they hired K & S:
- 30+ years of additions across Maryland — we know how to tie a new structure into an existing home cleanly
- We work alongside architects and engineers when needed
From first call to final walkthrough
1. Site visit and feasibility. We walk the property and the house together, check setbacks, and talk through what's possible. There's no charge for this.
2. Design and engineering. Plans are drawn and the structural design is engineered. We coordinate with the architect or handle design in-house for simpler additions.
3. Estimate and contract. An itemized written estimate is provided, with allowances broken out for finishes and fixtures.
4. Permits and build. Permits are pulled, foundation goes in, framing rises, mechanicals are roughed, inspections pass, and finish work runs in sequence.
5. Final inspections and walkthrough. We close out the permit, finalize the punch list, and hand off a finished, ready-to-use addition.
