Looking for home additions in Mountain View? ODL Construction is a licensed Bay Area general contractor serving Mountain View and the surrounding Silicon Valley — from Old Mountain View, Cuesta Park, Monta Loma and beyond. Room additions, primary suites, and second stories that look original to the home.
In a market where moving up costs hundreds of thousands in transaction costs and a bigger mortgage, adding on is often the smarter play — especially in top-school neighborhoods where the right addition returns more than a relocation. The key is an addition that looks like it was always there, not bolted on.
For Mountain View specifically, it comes down to local realities: Mountain View has one of the country's largest Eichler concentrations — preserving those open, light-filled designs while modernizing them is a craft, not a teardown. Mountain View is moderately paced and ADU-supportive; its Eichler-heavy neighborhoods make design sensitivity as important as code compliance. We design and permit your home additions around exactly those conditions.

Home Additions cost
Typical Bay Area ranges, not a quote. Additions price by square footage, structural complexity, and foundation work. Second stories cost more because the floor below must be reinforced. You get a fixed proposal after design.
Timeline
