Home Additions
Even if you don't feel the need for more space in your home right now, a home addition can dramatically increase the value of your home. If there is a choice between two similar-sized homes in the same neighborhood, the one with an extra bedroom, or a children's play room will always receive preference among home owners. In these hectic fast paced times, it makes more sense than ever to add a home office or a den to your home, so you can enjoy quality time with your family. Besides, it never hurts to plan ahead of schedule -- you'll most likely to find your needs from your house changing as the years go by.
If you are making an addition to your home with the intention of selling the property, then remember that only minor remodels will get you the maximum return on your investment. Avoid major and extensive home addition plans if you're planning on putting the property on the market immediately. A second story addition is more expensive and time consuming than adding on a bathroom, and you may enjoy greater benefits if you continue to live in the home for a few years in your new space, before selling the property. There are also local building codes to consider, failing which you could actually have your room addition project shut down.
Additions to your property can give great value for money if you can find two or more uses for a single room. For instance, a custom sunroom addition can give you a space for entertaining and socializing with friends, and can also be used as a family room at the end of the day. You can also use your sunroom as a conservatory by placing potted plants and herbs, and also as a pool room. A bedroom addition can provide much needed private space if you have more than one child, while a garage addition can be used not just to park your car, but also as a work area to indulge in your hobbies and crafts.

Need to remodel and add about 1000 feet of office space in an industrial building in Anaheim, CA Existing 1000 feet needs to be redone to meet our needs. |
We own an old home (1942) near downtown / heights area, around 1110 sq. ft. We have plenty of room on our lot to add a master suite in the place of our second driveway, we would also like to add on the utility to have it inside the home instead of out in the garage. I have plans drawn up but need blueprints done, I am an interior designer so I have a pretty good idea of what I want but am definitely open to idea's / changes. We are excited about making this addition to our home sometime in the next year, we'll have to before we have a second child. I feel that I need to get the ball rolling now so we know what we're talking about time wise and money wise. Please call / contact me with any questions. thank you. |
