Whether you need to address the changing needs of your growing family or want to do something about one of your cramped living spaces, home additions are one of the best investments you can ever make for your home. It is an excellent solution, especially if you don’t find moving to a new neighborhood too appealing. However, you might be wondering how much this project will cost you.
The total cost of a home addition project depends on several factors, which we discuss below.
Remodeling experts know exactly how much square footage can be added to your existing space. If you are looking to expand your kitchen or bathroom, expect it to cost more due to the expensive elements required there. The same can be said for a second-story addition, but that’s more economical compared to constructing a new house on a lot.
Permits are required for home additions. The costs for these may increase depending on multiple factors like size, location and complexity of the renovation. It can take time before you get approved for this project, but reputable home remodeling contractors like us make sure to communicate with you during this part of the process.
The budget determines the nature and urgency of the home addition project. Premium materials, innovative designs and high-quality expertise will cost more, which is why budgeting should be done accordingly. Consider getting a ballpark estimate for the project, which should cover costs for demolition and preparation, exterior and interior elements, and plumbing and electrical systems, to name a few. Once you’ve carefully considered the type of home addition you’d like, you’ll have to determine whether the project’s cost makes sense for you.
