Home additions grant you the comfort of additional living space and expand the possibilities of what you can do in your home. That's one of the biggest upsides to home additions: your options are essentially limitless! Whether you're interested in an additional room for some designated office space or looking to create a custom garage, Braendel Services will work with you to make your home addition everything you dreamed it would be.
A lot of people consider home additions to add some extra living space and create a comfier, cozier home. Have you been thinking of adding some space to your home, but are not sure where to start? Here are some home addition ideas to help get you started!
Formerly known as a "master's suite", primary bedrooms gives you a paradisic amount of privacy and a space to call your own. Not only does a master suite give you the luxury of a private bedroom space, but you also have to option to add amenities such as luxury showers and tubs, heated tile floors, or a double vanity. Braendel Services will work with you to provide custom designs for your master suite.
Sunrooms are a great home addition idea if you're looking to build out. These rooms offer the best of both worlds, offering access to the outside with the benefits of an enclosed, indoor space. Sunrooms are often designed to utilize windows in every area possible, giving you a perfect view of the outdoors. And the best part is that sunrooms are typically less expensive than traditional home additions.
Garage additions are a haven to car fanatics everywhere. Not only will you have additional living space, but you'll also have an area to park your car and keep it protected from the elements. You also have the option to build an attached or detached garage, depending on your preferences and how you're planning to use this space.
With the rise in remote working, many homeowners have been restructuring their living spaces to accommodate a home office. Instead of having to squeeze into a temporary workspace, adding a home office gives you the opportunity to fully design your dream work environment. Whether you're looking for a larger area to work out of or want to add more natural light to your office space, Braendel Services will work with you to achieve your home addition dreams.
Whatever you're envisioning, you can trust Braendel to bring it to life!
Do home additions add value?
Adding a new addition to your home will open up a lot of possibilities for you - particularly in terms of home value, too! Because home additions increase your home's overall square footage, you can expect to see a significant increase in property value. Having unique spaces, such as sunrooms or master suites, is appealing to homebuyers (and also easily enjoyed by current owners in the case you get too attached to your newly renovated livable space).
How long do home additions take?
Home additions will certainly take a while to complete. If you're interested in adding an addition to your home, you can expect 1,000 sq. feet of space to take around four months to complete. This will of course depend on each home addition project, so call Braendel Services to get more insight into your specific project!
How much do home additions cost?
The average cost of standard home additions is around $46,000. Not all home additions will run this much, some will cost less or even more, it all depends on your specific project and the necessary work it will take to add an addition to your home. If you have to reconfigure electrical wires or install additional plumbing, you may end up paying more than that.
Is it cheaper to build up or out?
When you're beginning your home addition project, you have two options: building horizontally or vertically. Most home additions build out, adding to the overall square footage of your home's ground floor, but in most cases, it will be significantly cheaper to build up rather than build out. Building out requires additional structural changes to the foundation and will require some excavating, making it easy to rack up the expenses.
How do I finance a home addition?
If you're seriously considering a home addition, but not sure how to finance it, you have some options at your disposal. You can increase your borrowing power with a renovation home equity loan (RenoFi loan), take out a home equity line of credit, take out a personal loan, or construction loan.
Quick work and reasonable We had our bathroom remodeled by Braendel and are very pleased with the job they did. Their workers are highly skilled and quite personable. Wonderful group of guys. Prompt....neat....orderly....friendly and great price. Will definitely use them again!!!! Jeff and Dan were easy to work with and the only contractor that understand my budget constraints and worked with me. They completed several projects for me in 2019. I wish I found them first! I initially contacted Braendel for interior & exterior painting, then expanded to several projects. All the workers were pleasant and helpful. Of the 10 + contractors I've hired for extensive work, he & 1 other are the only ones that started and finished when they said they would. Also, on time each day. Note - The only issue is the pricing for painting was higher than anyone else but would not deter me hiring. Great salesman and price was rightDeb Delaney
