Addition or Not’
An Addition will make a great improvement to your home, but Additions will cost more to build compared to building new. The money invested will take longer to recover which is fine if you love your location and intend on living there for years to come.
We Have an Advantage
There is an advantage to doing additions and that is the ability to see how the work that was done in the past, has held up. This is revealed during the demolition stages. In doing so, we discover what products or techniques that worked well over the years and what did not. Learning firsthand what is successful and what has been a failure is very educational. This knowledge gives us a better understanding of what works the best. It gives us a cutting edge of the best and better building practices.
Mountain Haven Custom Home Additions
- Additions and remodels require different considerations not seen in new construction. They are unpredictable, a challenge to match existing finishes and materials and pose health hazards.
- Personal possessions need storing and those items remaining in the house need protection. A Builder without a thoughtful plan for your personal items can accidently damage or destroy a lot of stuff.
