Room Additions & Suites in Blodgett, OR
Home Additions — built by Eugene’s garage & ADU master craftsman, serving Blodgett since 1969.
Thinking about a home addition in Blodgett? A seamless addition adds the room you need without the cost and upheaval of moving — and Red Umbrella has been building garages, ADUs, and additions across Benton County since 1969. Blodgett’s crossroads location in the Coast Range foothills offers the serenity of rural Benton County with US-20 access for material deliveries — remote-feeling but not inaccessible.
Building a home addition in Blodgett
Blodgett sits 63 mi northwest of Eugene via I-5 & US-20. Is rural and largely unincorporated, which usually means county-level permitting, septic siting, and room for larger shops and outbuildings. Building permits here go through Benton County — a process we know well — and for a home addition, that shapes how the new space ties into existing rooflines, the foundation, and the permit path.
Locally, Blodgett is known for US-20 & OR-180 junction, Tumtum River confluence with Marys River, Coast Range foothills, and we tailor every build to fit the lot, the neighborhood, and how you actually live.

Blodgett home addition questions
Do I need a permit for a home addition in Blodgett?
Yes — any structural addition to a home in Blodgett requires a building permit, and additions that include new plumbing, electrical, or mechanical work require additional trade permits. Red Umbrella prepares all permit applications, submits plans to the City of Blodgett Development Services, and manages inspections through final sign-off. Homeowners do not need to deal with the permit office directly.
Does Red Umbrella handle all the inspections during construction?
Yes — Red Umbrella schedules and manages every required municipal inspection, including foundation, framing, rough electrical, rough plumbing, insulation, and final inspection. The homeowner does not need to coordinate with City or county inspectors; Red Umbrella handles all communication and corrects any inspection comments before re-inspecting. You receive a copy of all final inspection approvals.
What is HFS Financial and how does it work for home improvements in Oregon?
HFS Financial is a lending marketplace specializing in home-improvement loans, and Red Umbrella is an approved contractor partner. HFS can finance projects up to 120% of the project cost — meaning closing costs and some associated expenses can be rolled in — with loan amounts up to $500,000 and without requiring home equity or a new first mortgage. Loan terms, rates, and approval requirements vary; Red Umbrella can connect you with an HFS representative after your free consultation.
