Get the Tempe home addition you need without leaving the location you love
Fenn Rogers Custom Homes designs and builds major home additions in Tempe that feel like they have always been part of the house. Whether you are expanding an older Tempe bungalow, a family home near Tempe Town Lake, or a quiet street farther south, we handle design coordination, budgeting, permits, and construction with steady communication from first walk through to final punch list.
More room, better flow, and a home that still feels like yours
Additions that look original
We pay attention to rooflines, window patterns, stucco texture, and interior trim so the new space blends into your Tempe home instead of looking like an afterthought.
From the street to the back patio, the house reads as one complete design.
Clarity on budget and schedule
You receive a detailed scope, allowances, and schedule before work begins. We show how different finish choices change cost so you stay in control of your investment.
No vague allowances and no surprise line items in the middle of the build.
Respect for your routine
Access routes, dust control, and phasing are planned so life can continue in the parts of your home you already enjoy while construction moves forward.
Regular updates keep you informed and confident at each stage.
Ways to grow your Tempe home without giving up your address
Primary suites and guest suites
Create a quiet primary retreat with a larger bath and closet or add a guest suite for visiting parents, adult children, or friends who stay for game weekends.
Privacy, sound control, and circulation are considered from the first draft.
Kitchen and living room expansions
Open older Tempe layouts into one connected kitchen, dining, and living space that works for daily life, homework, and evenings at home after work.
We plan storage, seating, and natural light around how you actually live.
Second levels and new wings
Add bedrooms, offices, or flex rooms with well planned second stories or side and rear wings that tie into your existing structure and roof forms.
Engineering, utilities, and approvals are managed for you.
Home additions that fit Tempe lots, character, and desert sun
Neighborhood specific planning. From historic areas near downtown to quiet streets south of the lake and newer pockets along the 101, we respect the character and scale of your street.
Climate aware design. Window placement, shade, and mechanical planning reflect Tempe sun and heat so your new rooms stay comfortable and efficient year round.
Thoughtful lot use. We consider setbacks, trees, and outdoor living so patios, yards, and pool spaces still feel generous once the footprint grows.
Local permit expertise. Our team navigates Tempe's Permit Center, city regulations, and HOA guidelines so your project moves forward without unnecessary delays.
Long term relationships. Many Tempe clients return to us for future work or send neighbors once they experience the finished addition.
A simple three step plan for your Tempe home addition
Walk through and idea session
We tour your Tempe home, listen to what is not working today, and explore options that add space while improving flow and storage without overbuilding for the lot or street.
Design, pricing, and city review
We work with your architect and designer or bring in trusted partners. Together we refine plans, selections, and a detailed budget while preparing for Tempe review and any association approvals.
Build, protect, and complete
Our team and trade partners build the addition while protecting the parts of your home you already love. You receive clear updates, walk throughs at key points, and a calm path to move in.
A steady, zero surprise experience for Tempe home additions
Straightforward proposals
Scope, allowances, and known exclusions are written in clear language so you know what is included before you sign.
Hands on oversight
You have direct access to ownership and a dedicated project lead who tracks schedule, quality, and communication from first meeting to final touchups.
Custom level craftsmanship
We lean on trade partners we know and trust. Fit and finish are held to the standard of a new luxury custom home, not a quick renovation.

There are so many cool features at our Skyview 5 project, like the floating steel staircase to access the bedrooms upstairs right off the kitchen. Stay tuned as we are nearing completion on this amazing custom home 🙌🏻
We’ve wrapped up the framing portion of phase 2 at our Mariposa Estates project. Phase 2 consists of building a game room to connect the main house to the casita with a game room as well as adding 3 additional garage bays 👊🏻
Most people would look at this project and say you should’ve just scraped the house and started from scratch! But this home has sentimental value to our clients so we are preserving as much as we can 🙌🏻

Frequently asked questions about home additions in Tempe
Larger Tempe home additions often run from several months to a year or more once plans are ready and permits are approved. Size, structural changes, finish level, and access all affect timing. During preconstruction we build a realistic calendar so you know what to expect at each stage.
In many projects families stay in the home for part or all of construction. When that is the plan, we pay close attention to dust control, safety, access, and noise. We explain how each phase will feel so you can decide whether staying in place is comfortable or if a short time away is better during heavy work.
Our goal is for guests to feel like the home was always this size. We match roof forms, exterior finishes, window and door styles, floor transitions, and trim so the new and existing spaces feel like one complete home, not two eras stitched together.
Yes. We coordinate with your architect and engineer or bring in trusted partners to create drawings that are ready for city review. Our team is familiar with Tempe processes and works to anticipate plan review, permits, inspections, and any association steps that may apply to your property.
During your consultation we look at your lot, layout, budget, and long term plans. Sometimes a well planned addition in a walkable Tempe location you love is the best answer. In other situations a new custom home or full rebuild makes more sense. We walk through the numbers and tradeoffs so you can decide with clarity.
