Waples Mill Road Garage Addition

This comprehensive garage addition project in Oakton, VA transformed the property with a two-story garage structure featuring a room-in-truss system to create usable space above. The project included extensive foundation work with a 12-foot retaining wall, concrete stairs integrated into the retaining wall, and a crawl space foundation for an enclosed breezeway connecting to the main residence. The construction utilized pre-manufactured room-in-truss systems rather than traditional stick framing to maximize the second-story space efficiency. The exterior featured standing seam metal roofing over the mudroom/porch and front accent roof areas, along with professionally installed RJT windows and Pella 15-light entry doors. A fire-rated door was installed between the garage and mudroom for safety compliance. The project required careful site preparation including surveying and septic system location and repair work performed prior to construction. The design maintained MOSS construction standards throughout, with engineered solutions for all structural components and proper permitting coordination with the county.
