Adding On Instead of Moving

If you like the lot and the street but need more room, an addition is worth pricing against selling and buying. Our itemized scope supplies the addition half of that comparison in plain figures.

Zoning setbacks, lot slope and where the addition meets the existing house all shape the cost, so we look at them first.

What an Addition Scope Includes

  • Foundation

    Footings and a slab or crawlspace foundation sized to the addition, with the new floor set level with the rooms it joins.

  • Framing and shell

    Walls, floor system, windows and exterior finish, built and weathered in before the old exterior wall is ever opened.

  • Tie-in

    Opening the existing wall, extending heating and cooling, and running water and power wherever the new space needs them.

  • Interior finishes

    Insulation, drywall, trim, doors and paint matched to the rest of the house so the new room does not look added on.

How an Addition Comes Together

  1. Check the lot

    We look at setbacks, slope, access and where the new space would join the house, since each one affects the foundation and the cost.

  2. Scope and schedule

    You get the itemized scope with each stage priced, plus a written schedule with inspections at the points the building department requires.

  3. Build outside in

    Foundation and shell go up first, then the tie-in, systems, inspections and interior finishes, with your living space sealed off from the work.

Addition Questions

How long does an addition take?

Usually several months. Foundation, framing, inspections and finishes each take their turn, and lead times on windows or cabinets can matter as much as labor. Your schedule shows each stage in writing.

Should I add on or move?

If the neighborhood suits you and only the square footage falls short, adding on is usually worth pricing. Weigh the addition's itemized cost and months of construction against the costs of selling, buying and moving.
