Home Additions Contractor in Utah County for Seamless, Well-Planned Expansions

Add space without creating avoidable coordination problems between design, engineering, structure, and construction.

Home Addition Construction in Utah County

A successful home addition needs to feel like it belongs. That requires more than square footage. Structure, foundation, rooflines, utilities, finishes, access, and existing-home disruption all need to be planned together.

Platypus helps Utah County homeowners add space with a coordinated design-build process that keeps the addition practical, buildable, and aligned with the existing home.

Common Addition Projects

  • Bedroom, bathroom, and living-space additions.
  • Garage additions and attached accessory spaces.
  • Second-story and structural expansion planning.
  • Additions tied to remodels, basement work, or site improvements.

Reduce Surprises Before Construction Starts

Additions can uncover structural and site issues if the planning team and construction team are not aligned. Platypus brings those conversations together early so the project has a clearer path before work begins.

Real Results.

We let our work — and our clients — speak for us. Here's what homeowners and business owners have to say about working with Platypus Design & Construction.

"I am more than satisfied with the excellent work Platypus Design and Construction recently did for us. After a windstorm blew down a portion of our vinyl fence, he not only repaired the fence but saw what needed to be done to secure it so it would withstand future storms. He performed the work quickly, efficiently, and skillfully. The result was excellent and the cost was reasonable. We also appreciate the clarity and friendliness of all his communications and interactions with us. Overall, he did a superb job, even exceeding our expectations."

"McKay and his team have done multiple TI buildout projects for me and my Scenthound locations. They have been great to work with through everything to help me get a mix of great pricing, service, and overall product delivery. They are honest with their work and will ensure they take care of you as their client. Further, being able to use them for both design drawing, engineering, and the project buildout and management has saved me tens of thousands of dollars and weeks of time during my buildouts to have it all done with them in house. Platypus will continue to be my go-to for all my future commercial construction needs."
Spencer S. Commercial Build-Out
"We had an outstanding experience working with McKay Harper and Platypus Construction on a garage addition and a custom pergola over our patio. From the beginning, McKay demonstrated a high level of craftsmanship and attention to detail - he was able to match the existing architecture of our home seamlessly, to the point that the addition looks like it has always been there. It was a unique design challenge, and McKay used thoughtful engineering to create a beautiful freestanding structure that feels both solid and elegant. His pricing was very fair, and we would give McKay and Platypus Construction our highest recommendation and would absolutely work with him again."
