Expanding your living space by building an addition to your home can be a great way to meet the changing needs of your family. Whether you need a new bedroom, bathroom, or home office, adding extra square footage can improve your quality of life and increase your property value. With careful planning and the right contractor, you can create a seamless and functional addition that blends in seamlessly with the rest of your home. So why not consider building an addition to your house today?
While buying a new home may seem like the obvious solution for expanding your living space, it can come with a hefty price tag. Building an addition to your current home can often be a more cost-effective option, allowing you to stay in a neighborhood you love and avoid the expenses associated with moving. Additionally, the costs of building an addition can often be more predictable and controllable than the expenses of buying a new home. By working with a Greenbelt Homes, you can create a customized living space that meets your needs and fits within your budget.
The cost of building an addition to your home can vary greatly depending on a number of factors, including the size and complexity of the project, the materials used, and the location of your home. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between $100 and $400 per square foot for a home addition. While this may seem like a significant investment, it can provide a great return on your investment by adding value to your property and improving your quality of life. Working with a reputable contractor and creating a detailed budget can help you manage costs and achieve your desired outcome.
Our Pre-Construction Services aim to make the design process seamless. Key to the process is providing accurate cost estimates early on. In addition, our engineering and detailed consultation streamlines the process and saves you time and resources.
Our Pre-Construction services, including preliminary cost estimating, value-engineering, construction technique, material consultation, consultant plan review, story pole and permitting assistance, and on-site discovery, are offered at no cost if we build the project!
Our pricing begins with a preliminary cost estimate from initial architectural plans before all plans are finalized. This is typically done internally, with occasional input from subcontractors.
We then create a second estimate when plans are submitted, which includes firm bids for building shell and site work and allowances or internal estimates for finishes.
Our final pricing package comprises fixed costs for major trades based on multiple bids.
The last step is putting together the bid book and selecting subcontractors for each trade.
A full-time Site Superintendent or Foreman supervises our projects. They manage daily job site activities, including safety, scheduling, material ordering, and employee supervision.
A project manager, or Val Lapatskiy, also manages our projects, handles project paperwork, attends site meetings, and makes budget and schedule revisions.
Project manager hours vary based on project size, with 5 to 20 hours per week being typical. We also recommend a team of trusted subcontractors for optimal service and value.
Timelines are critical to our projects. Therefore, we prioritize open communication about project schedules. Scheduling is managed using Microsoft Project software and procurement logs. Each project schedule includes key milestones for our crew, as well as design choices and deadlines for clients. Schedules are regularly updated when significant changes occur or when progress slows.
At the end of your project, we make an internal punch list. Once done, we request a walk-through with you and your architect to create your own punch list, which we then compare to ours. Both lists are addressed to completion.
In addition, a binder containing appliance specifications, operating instructions, and subcontractor details will be given to you for future reference.
The final touch is a thorough cleaning, and the keys are handed over. Our aim is to exceed expectations by delivering top-notch service and products, resulting in referrals to friends and family.
Whether it’s a new construction, or renovations, give your home an interior makeover by updating a crucial room, and enjoy the significant impact it can make, regardless of the size of the project. Rely on our exceptional service, unparalleled craftsmanship, and meticulous attention to detail to bring your dreams to life!
