Tips on Choosing the Right Contractor for Your Home Addition



A home addition is a great solution for growing families or households that need more living space. This added space could be an extra bedroom, bathroom or even a home gym. One of the first things to do when planning this project is to find a reliable contractor. Obtaining a quote from multiple companies can help you find the right one for your project. 

Read on for more tips on choosing the best contractor for your home addition. 

Do Your Research

Go online and search “home addition contractor near me” to get a list of local companies in your area. Check their websites to learn more about the contractors and see if they have uploaded photos of their previous projects. Find out how long the companies have been in business and look for feedback from their past clients. Another thing that helps is checking their status with the Better Business Bureau (BBB). Take note of any complaints and how they resolved those issues. 

Get at Least Three Estimates

Getting estimates will give you an idea of the possible cost of your project and allow you to assess prospective contractors. When consulting remodelers, don’t forget to ask for proof of licensing and insurance. Talk to previous customers whose projects were similar to yours. There could be significant differences in an estimate if the contractor uses different materials. Make sure that estimates are written and detailed. 

Ask the Right Questions

Asking the right questions will help you better assess prospective contractors. You need to know how long they have been in business and how many projects similar to yours they have worked on previously. You want to work with a contractor that is experienced and specializes in home additions. Ask how they deal with warranty complaints. Also, determine how many projects are in queue before they can start yours. 

Don’t Rush

Finding the right contractor for your project is not necessarily an easy task, so don’t rush it. Take your time in evaluating prospective remodeling companies. Keep in mind that hiring a contractor is one of the most crucial parts of your project. The outcome of your home addition depends on the professionals you will hire.
