River Road, VA — Home Addition
A multi-room home addition and master bath remodel completed across Richmond, VA — built from blueprint to final walkthrough by the VIVO team.
The River Road project started with a vision for a larger family home that kept the character of the original property. VIVO engineered a multi-room addition and a full master bathroom remodel built from the ground up with Obsidian Engineering.
Every phase of the project ran through our 7-step process — from initial plan delivery to county inspections, finishes, and the 1-year warranty. The result is a home that looks like it was always meant to be this size.
