What Wichita Homeowners Are Saying

Hear from clients who expanded their homes with Heartland.

  • "The actual remodeling process was low-stress."

    Heartland recently completed an extensive project for us which included: remodel of master suite, remodel of two other bathrooms and laundry room, addition of a bathroom in the basement, installation of wood, tile, and LVT flooring throughout our entire main level, and repair of several instances of water damage.

    Heartland’s planning process took time, and we saw that as an asset. All decisions were made and details worked out before the contract was signed. As a result, the actual remodeling process was low-stress. Because of the thorough advance planning we had virtually no surprises.

    The results exceeded our expectations. We came away from this experience with the utmost respect for the folks at Heartland and for the way they do business. We found Mike Gatschet to be candid, fair, honest, and careful. His staff’s interactions with us reflected these qualities. Every single Heartland employee who was involved in our project - from design to extensive contract planning to execution - was someone we would choose to work with again. They were professional, accomplished, and reliable.

    We already have another project on the horizon and there's no question we will use Heartland again. Highest recommendation.

  • "Heartland did a fantastic job."

    Heartland did a fantastic job on a screened in porch project and garage additon on our home. Very satisfied.

    - Jeff D.

  • "Their quality of work is excellent, they’re friendly, and fast."

    You simply won't find a better group of people. We've worked with Mike and his crews several times now and their quality of work is excellent, they're friendly, and fast.

    - Rebecca B.

  • "I’m very happy with the work and the quality."

    We had Heartland design and construct a front porch addition, hang new siding and new windows. The cost was more than we expected at first, but they worked with us to see where we could "compromise" and ended up with a budget we both agreed upon. At the end of the project, the cost was exactly what they said it would be. I have worked with many contractors where you get the bill a month after the project is finished, and it's 150/200% higher than the number you thought.

    Other than financials, the craftsmanship was excellent. I'm very happy with the work and the quality.

    Last, they have an in-house drafter/designer (Nathan) that will show you what your project will look like (to-scale) at no cost to you. Nathan was the starting point and we loved working with him. I had interviewed architects/designers before calling Heartland and they wanted $3,000-$5,000 just for a drawing. Heartland has the designer and computer software in-house to allow clients to see the finished product.

Home Addition FAQs

Answers to common questions about expanding your home in Wichita.

Do you handle the architectural plans and permits?2026-02-27T14:22:02-06:00

Absolutely. We handle the design, drafting, engineering, and all city permitting required to get your addition approved and built to code.

Is it cheaper to build up (second story) or out?2026-02-27T14:21:50-06:00

Generally, building “out” (expanding the footprint on the ground level) is more cost-effective and less disruptive than adding a second story, provided you have the yard space.

Do I need a new foundation for a room addition?2026-02-27T14:21:36-06:00

Yes. We will excavate and pour a new foundation (slab, crawlspace, or full basement) that is structurally tied into your existing home’s foundation.

Can you match my home’s existing brick or siding?2026-02-27T14:21:23-06:00

Yes. One of our top priorities is “seamless integration.” We source materials that match or complement your existing exterior so the addition doesn’t look like an afterthought.

How long does a home addition take?2026-02-27T14:21:07-06:00

Because additions involve foundation, framing, and roofing, they typically take longer than standard remodels—often 3 to 6 months depending on the size and complexity of the project.
