Myrtle Creek Home Addition Builder
Home Additions — built by Eugene’s garage & ADU master craftsman, serving Myrtle Creek since 1969.
Thinking about a home addition in Myrtle Creek? 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 Douglas County since 1969. Myrtle Creek’s South Umpqua River frontage is gorgeous but puts riparian setbacks in play — we site garages and ADUs to stay clear of those buffers while still making the most of the river views.
Building a home addition in Myrtle Creek
Myrtle Creek sits 93 mi south of Eugene via I-5. Follows a river corridor, so floodplain mapping and riparian setbacks are real factors we plan around from day one. Building permits here go through City of Myrtle Creek — 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, Myrtle Creek is known for South Umpqua River, Scott-Applegate Trail remnant, shortest covered bridge in Oregon, pioneer grist-mill site, and we tailor every build to fit the lot, the neighborhood, and how you actually live.

Call (541) 515-3843 or request a consultation at the website to confirm service to your address.
Does building an ADU or addition increase my home’s value?
Adding an ADU or a well-designed addition generally increases a home’s resale value in the Myrtle Creek market, though the increase depends on location, finishes, and buyer demand. An ADU that generates rental income is especially appealing to buyers who can offset their mortgage with rent. Red Umbrella builds to quality standards that hold up over time and support strong appraisals.
