Home Addition Remodeling

Basic Home Additions-

First floor addition - Second Story addition - Inlaw Apartment addition - Dormer addition - Room over garage addition - Split Level/Tri Level Addition - Garage Conversion - Basement Conversion - Garage addition

Home owners can hire a general contractor (most do) The contractor will take care of all the paperwork, materials, labor & complete the project ready for a Certificate of Occupancy.

Or Do-It-Yourself (DIY). Some do all of the work. Many choose to have a contractor build a shell (all exterior work completed) & then finish the interior work with their own labor. You can also do some of the work yourself & hire others who have more expertise. - i.e. plumbers, electricians - to comlete the remodel.

If you decide to hire a contractor he/she will secure building plans, permits, provide all labor & materials, cleanup the debris & of course guarantee the work.

Ebooks explaining the right way (better planning, spend less & have a better design) are available here in these Home Addition ebooks.

Each type addition requires nuanced changes in your planning. Each book guides you through the process of buying a very expensive item & explains how to eliminate many land mines. You will find plenty of tips & advice that will ease the way through a complex purchase.

If you decide to tackle the job (or part of the job) yourself I have written a DIY room additions book that will guide you through the process.

And last but not least there is the infamous Confessions of a Home Remodeling Contractor. A general tretise on how to buy home remodeling.
