ADUs & Home Additions Built Around You.
Tigard homeowners like to make the most of their properties. A guest suite for visiting relatives. A home office with a door that closes. A rental unit with its own entrance. A place for a parent to live close by. A well-planned ADU or addition makes all of that possible without packing a single box.
We start with who will use the space, how often, and how it connects to the rest of your property. Design, permitting, and construction all run through one team, so what you approve on paper is what you walk into.

The foundation
Where Great Construction Starts.
An ADU or addition is a structural project before it’s a design project. Foundations, framing, rooflines, and connections to your existing home all have to work together, and the quality of that work shapes how the space performs for years to come.
That makes it a management job as much as a building job. De Marco Builders coordinates every trade, inspection, and delivery under a single plan, and we’ve done it across more than 1,400 projects in the Portland metro. For a home addition contractor in Tigard, that oversight keeps the build on schedule and the structure sound.
THE PROCESS
What to Expect from an ADU or Home Addition.
Your project begins with a conversation about what you need, what you want to invest, and what your property allows. From there, we develop the design, handle the permit paperwork, and walk you through a clear, itemized proposal before anything starts.
You’ll know the price and the finish date before the first day of construction, and we stand behind both. With transparent pricing and a 100% on-time record, De Marco Builders keeps your project on track from start to finish. Request a free quote to get started.

How do you price a project?
Every proposal from De Marco Builders provides complete cost transparency. Our estimates clearly show the construction costs, company overhead, profit, and total project cost so clients fully understand where every dollar is allocated.
Do you require a deposit?
No. Never. We do not require an upfront deposit. The first payment is due only after a portion of the contracted work has been completed.
What happens if costs change during the project?
We guarantee the contract price through project completion unless the homeowner requests additional work beyond the original scope or unforeseen structural conditions are discovered that were not visible during the initial evaluation.
Can you work within a specific budget?
Absolutely. De Marco Builders is a budget-driven builder. We work within the client’s established budget throughout the design, engineering, permitting, and construction phases. We utilize value-engineering principles to maximize quality while maintaining budget goals.
Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
Yes. De Marco Builders is fully licensed, bonded, and insured. We maintain all required certifications and operate in full compliance with state regulations.
How do you handle unexpected issues that come up mid-project?
Unexpected issues are rare because of our extensive experience and thorough planning process. If an unforeseen issue does arise, it is addressed immediately, typically within 24 hours. We resolve issues in a code-compliant manner while protecting the project schedule.
How often will I receive updates?
Communication is one of our highest priorities. Once a client signs a contract, we maintain frequent communication throughout design, engineering, permitting, and construction. Clients receive regular progress updates, photos, and end-of-day reports so they remain informed from start to finish.
