When it comes to planning a project for your home, many times homeowners don’t know where to start. Here are a few things to think about when getting ready for that next big project.
Home Additions & Finished Basements:
Some people have always wanted an extra guest room, a bigger family room, a more light-filled kitchen, finished basement, a second floor or just some extra space. Home additions are a great way to expand your home without the necessity of moving and giving up on your great location, neighbors and home.
Location of your home addition:
How do you know which side of the house to add onto? This depends on the current location, property lines, the rooms in your home, and what type of space you’d like to add. We are happy to sit down with you to discuss your options and present ideas. Talking with a contractor will give you insight to what is possible.
What will it cost?
The cost of a home addition greatly varies depending on the type and size you want. We can build glamorous home additions that can double the size of your house, add a second floor or some extra square footage with an expanded living space off the back of the house, an in-law suite, guest room, or year round/3 season room. We can even do stand alone she or he “Sheds” for a private space detached from the home. It’s totally up to you and your budget.
When should I start planning?
As soon as possible. Most good contractors have their schedules planned out for weeks and months ahead (especially for big projects). Some contractors will work one day on a job, then move to others hopping around trying to keep everyone happy but what you end up with lots of projects that take way longer to complete, which is inconvenient to the homeowners dragging on for months when they shouldn’t, making for unhappy customers. Yuk! Builders Integrity doesn’t like “hopping” from job to job. You are living in your home during this construction most of the time and being focused on your project, it minimizes the length of time you are inconvenience, and allows us to concentrate on quality, customer service and craftmanship. We appreciate your patience.
