Before you begin the design process and determine your budget cost for your home additions you need to determine the type of room(s) you need. The room’s purpose will help you determine whether you need to build out by expanding the square footage of your home or strengthen your existing foundation in order to build up a dormer, second-story, or a two-story addition,
Costs Of Building Up Vs. Building Out
When it comes to budgeting for your home additions and renovation, it’s important to understand the costs involved in building a one-story addition as opposed to a second floor. Building a one-story is less expensive than building a second floor. On average, it costs around $125 a square foot for a one-story addition and $150 for a second floor.
Adding A Second Story
When it comes to adding an addition, you have the choice between a first-floor or a second-floor addition. If you’re interested in adding multiple bedrooms to your home, you may want to consider a second floor. While a one-bedroom or an additional recreational room can be added to the first floor. At Town Of Hempstead Expeditors, we will layout your furniture to make sure the room is large enough.
Dormers
Dormers add space to the inside of your room when you cant build-out. You can use a dormer to add another window to your home and break up the monotonous appearance of your roof, or to add another whole level to your home. Many people add dormers because they view their current attic as wasted space that provides a lot of floor space, but not enough room between it and the ceiling.
Rooms
Turning a three-bedroom into a four-bedroom is as easy as picking up the phone and calling (516) 584-3318. Our Architectural designers at Town Of Hempstead Expeditors can add another bedroom to your home in the same style as the rest of the house so that it appears to have always been there.
Parent And Child Suite
A parent and child suite is an add-on created specifically for additional residents who are moving in permanently and are often senior citizens. At Town Of Hempstead Expeditors, we can design a suite based on your needs including all the amenities that you find in a home with a separate entrance.
Home Office
Whether you need a small, simple space to work or a spacious environment for welcoming clients and hosting meetings, Town Of Hempstead Expeditors can customize a convenient office or study for you.
Family Room
While most homes have a living room, a family room is a space that’s less formal and better suited for kids, and games are also known as a recreational room. However, if you decide to use this as an all-purpose room, Town Of Hempstead Expeditors can design it to your specs.
Sunroom
Long Island gets a lot of year-round sunshine, but the heat can make it difficult to enjoy. By adding in a Sun-room with windows as large as floor to ceiling you will be able to soak up rays in perfect comfort. Sun-rooms make great additions to kitchens, libraries, and reading areas next to the living room
