Home Additions
As families grow and needs change, what once felt like a perfectly sized home can start to feel tight, cluttered, or outdated. Instead of facing the stress and expense of moving, consider reimagining your current space. At Today’s Design & Build, we specialize in custom home additions and renovations in Arlington, VA that allow you to stay where you are while gaining the space, function, and comfort you need.
Whether you're expanding your home with a new room, reworking the floor plan, or finishing an underutilized basement, our team will guide you through the process from start to finish. With thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship, we transform homes into better versions of themselves—beautifully tailored to your lifestyle.
Maximize Your Home’s Potential With a Custom Floor Plan Redesign
Sometimes, the answer to a cramped home isn’t building out—it’s reworking what you already have. Our home renovation services include custom floor plan redesigns to help you make better use of every square foot.
Whether your home is full of small, segmented rooms that feel closed off or you want to turn one large room into several defined spaces, we’ll create a design that works for how you live. We assess the structure, flow, and function of your home and then recommend changes that improve it—without sacrificing comfort or character.
Common layout updates include:
- Opening up the main living area for a modern, airy feel
- Creating new hallways or connections between rooms
- Reorganizing traffic flow for better use of space
- Blending indoor and outdoor spaces more seamlessly
Our team handles everything from planning and permitting to demolition and reconstruction, ensuring a smooth and stress-free transformation.
Open Floor Plan Remodeling in Arlington, VA
One of the most popular ways to modernize a home is by creating an open concept layout. This typically involves removing load-bearing or non-load-bearing walls to connect kitchens, dining rooms, and living areas into a unified space that feels larger and brighter.
Open floor plans are ideal for families, entertainers, or anyone who enjoys a spacious, flowing home. We take care to maintain structural integrity while optimizing aesthetics, light distribution, and functionality.

This type of remodeling can dramatically change the feel of your home—making even smaller homes seem much larger and more inviting.
Add New Rooms to Meet Your Changing Needs
Life changes—and your home should keep up. We help homeowners in Arlington design and build new rooms within their existing footprint by adding walls to divide oversized spaces or by building entirely new square footage through home additions.
Whether you need a new bedroom for a growing family, an extra bathroom to reduce the morning rush, or a private office for remote work, we’ve got you covered.
Popular types of room additions we build:
- Guest bedrooms or in-law suites
- Home offices or dens
- Additional bathrooms
- Mudrooms or laundry rooms
- Playrooms or hobby spaces
We take the time to match the addition’s finishes, layout, and architectural style to your existing home so everything feels seamless and cohesive.
Basement Refinishing Services in Arlington, VA
Basements often become storage areas or forgotten spaces—but with our help, they can become vibrant, livable parts of your home. Our basement refinishing services turn dark, unused basements into warm, functional rooms for anything from entertainment to work to rest.
Some possibilities for your newly refinished basement:
- Home theater or media room
- Fitness or yoga studio
- Guest suite or rental unit
- Game room or playroom
- Wine cellar or wet bar
- Home office or creative workspace
We’ll assess your basement’s structural condition, insulation, waterproofing, and ceiling height, then design a safe and comfortable space that meets all building codes. We also handle lighting, plumbing, flooring, and ventilation to ensure the space is truly move-in ready.
Mudroom & Laundry Room Construction
Every busy household needs a space to manage the mess—and that’s where mudrooms and laundry rooms come in. If your home doesn’t currently have one, or if your laundry is tucked away in a cramped hallway closet, we can help create a dedicated and efficient area.
We can:
- Divide a large space to carve out a mudroom
- Relocate your laundry to a more functional part of the home
- Build custom cabinetry, counters, and storage cubbies
- Install tile flooring for easy cleanup
- Add utility sinks, shelving, and durable countertops
These practical additions are great for resale value and even better for everyday convenience.
