Home Addition Tips from the Experts at Varian Construction

Home Additions | Varian Construction

For a lot of us, 2020 gave extra, unexpected time in the home. Whether your home turned into an office or a school last year, you might have noticed that it’s time for a change or perhaps an addition. You’re not alone. A new study shows home additions have taken a 58% annual increase after the pandemic! If you are planning on making an addition to your home here are some tips from the experts at Varian Construction.

Planning

Always start with a plan. When tackling a home addition project, it is of upmost importance to plan the entire project before jumping into it. Here are some questions to think about during the planning process.

  • Budget – How much are you willing to put into the home addition? Will it add value to the property? How much is too much?
  • Layout – Where is the best location for the addition? Are we building up or out? Is this our property or our neighbor’s property?
  • Look – Does the new addition match the old? How can we add value without loosing the character of the home?

No room is too small for an upgrade

The idea of an addition most often starts with the thought that, “We need more space.” Home additions are designed to add more space, so don’t rule out the small spaces! With an addition to your home, that cramped kitchen can be face-lifted, hosting your family’s next Thanksgiving. Or, that one car garage can be remodeled into dad’s auto body shop! Think outside of the small spaces in your house and what you really want in your dream home.
