Rite Way Construction Developer was founded in 2001 by Jim Dunne because of the need for a professional, competent, understanding, action-oriented construction company. Even though we opened doors in 2001, we have more than 20 years of experience in the industry. Through our experiences in the home improvement industry, we realized that homeowners who wanted remodeling work performed, were not being served professionally. This is why we have succeeded in the construction business. Rite Way Construction Developer does not just build additions and custom homes. We help people live better! Rite Way Construction Developer builds relationships by bringing a new light to an industry that has been in the dark for too many years. Rite Way Caonstruction Developer knows that we must communicate with our customers, be honest, respectful and offer fun and excitement during the building process, while creating unique living environments. Whether it's a small addition or large custom home, our belief is to treat a customer's home as a castle. Serving our customers is what we are all about. We understand that serving is what makes us thrive and succeed. And, because of this, we all know that when a homeowner calls us, they have called the right place.

"We contracted Riteway Construction 2021 to have an addition built to our house. The project was completed in 2022. They did a good job initially with procuring materials during COVID as well as getting most of the work done at that time. Jim has a lot of contacts which helped with procuring materials especially during COVID when materials were in shortage due to supply chain issues. One of the major issues during the project and even now after construction had been completed is communication. Throughout the project Jim was either super responsive or very hard to get in touch with. Since the project was finished, we have had issues with water leaks/damage. A few months after finishing the project we had some floor boards that needed to be replaced due to a water leak/unknown water damage, which was from earlier in the construction but never addressed. We tried to contact Jim for 1-1.5 months via text, calls and emails and were unsuccessful in getting touch with him."

"We now have a beautiful kitchen. This price tag was on the high end, but that may have been due to either the high price of lumber at the time (Canadian wildfires) or the customer cabinetry that we needed or both. There were a few instances where I was glad we were on sight as I don’t know if the errors we saw would have been caught prior to them being installed. The upfront design and visualization is top notch, as is the quality of the material. The labor used to install was three star at best."

Addition to existing structure building services FAQs

You can typically raise your roof by four to eight feet, depending on your home's structure and roof design. The exact amount depends on factors like roof slope and framing support. Raising the roof creates additional interior space, enhances natural light, and increases your home's value. Consult a professional to determine the feasible height increase for your home.

Yes, you need a building permit to raise your roof. Obtaining a building permit ensures your project complies with local building codes and safety regulations. A professional contractor can assist with the permit and inspection process and ensure all legal and safety requirements are met. Your contractor will be familiar with building codes in your area, which can differ between cities or states.

While it's possible to raise a flat roof, it requires extensive structural modifications. Flat roofs lack the attic space and support structures of pitched roofs, so raising them involves significant engineering to ensure safety and durability. This process can be complex and costly, so professional assessment is essential before undertaking a project of this magnitude.
