FAQs

How much does a home addition cost?

The cost of your home additions will greatly depend on the type of addition you choose. A multi-room conventional house addition will cost the most since it’s sizable addition to your existing home. Room additions and bump-outs will run you less, but they are still significant investments. The materials you choose and the features you want will directly impact the cost of your home additions.
