Can you build an addition on a sloped lot in Cedar Hill?

Usually, yes. A slope changes the foundation, the drainage and sometimes the roofline. Highland Remodeling coordinates engineering, plans grading and gutters with the addition, and designs it in-house. We pull City of Cedar Hill permits and start with a free 1–2 hour consultation.

“I cannot say enough positive about the efforts made by David to do the most excellent repair job on my roof after it was severely damaged by wind and storms There were leaks that resulted from the damage, and shingles blown onto my yard. After David’s work and repair, it truly looks like a new roof. I also commend David for his genuine dedication and business ethics as we worked together to get the best results at the most reasonable price. There is no one I can recommend more confidently to you than David and his company, Highland Remodeling. I will never use anyone else.”

Cedar Hill homes

Hills, rock and water.

Cedar Hill sits southwest of Dallas, mostly in Dallas County with a southern edge in Ellis County, near Joe Pool Lake and Cedar Hill State Park. The escarpment that runs through town gives it rolling terrain that’s unusual for the area, and many homes sit on sloped lots.

Some lots have limestone close to the surface, which changes how footings get dug. Others sit downhill from a neighbor, so water comes toward the house every time it rains.

Drainage first

Water goes away from the house, not under it.

Sloped lots matter for additions, patios and every room that touches the ground. We plan grading, gutters, downspouts and foundations together, so a new room doesn’t send water somewhere it didn’t go before.

Additions are priced from your project’s own scope, and extra foundation work on a slope shows up as its own line. Kitchens start at $45,000, primary suite baths at $35,000, hall baths at $20,000 and half baths at $8,000.

Permits

City of Cedar Hill permits, handled.

Remodels in Cedar Hill are permitted and inspected by the City of Cedar Hill. Additions and exterior changes may also need HOA approval, depending on your neighborhood.

We prepare the drawings, pull the permits, schedule the inspections and build review time into your schedule.

Our promise

The risk sits with us, in writing.

A remodel is a big check to write to someone you just met. These commitments are in every Highland contract, so you're never taking it on faith.

Questions first? Call (469) 213-0606.

  • Your price is your price.

    The price changes in only one way: a written change order that you see, approve, and sign before that work begins.

    Every remodel carries a 1-year workmanship warranty. If something we built doesn't hold up, we come back and make it right.

  • You see every dollar.

    Published starting prices, an itemized estimate, and a client portal that shows each invoice and payment as it happens.

  • The first visit costs you nothing.

    Your 1–2 hour consultation and itemized estimate are free, with no obligation to sign.

Questions

Remodeling in Cedar Hill: FAQ.

Do I need a permit for an addition in Cedar Hill?

Yes. Additions need a City of Cedar Hill building permit and inspections, and often engineered foundation drawings on a slope. We prepare the drawings and pull the permit.

Do you handle gutters and drainage?

Yes. We install and repair gutters and downspouts, and we plan drainage with any addition or exterior project.

Why does my addition need an engineer?

On sloped lots and rocky soil, the foundation has to be designed for the site. An engineer’s plan protects the new room and the house it’s attached to.

Can we stay home during the work?

Most clients do. Additions are built mostly outside until we open the connecting wall, and we seal that opening with zip-wall barriers.
