What’s the Best Home Addition for Your Needs?

Home additions come in different types and sizes and can be used for any purpose. When deciding what your new space should be, always consider your family’s needs and the current state of your home. 

Here are tips to help you decide which addition is ideal for your situation from a trusted home improvement company.

Bump-Out

A bump-out is a single room built onto the side of a house. It’s usually a bedroom or bathroom and sometimes only increases the size of an existing room. They are great for homeowners who only wish to expand the living space on the ground floor. For instance, you want to have more room for a kitchen island or a walk-in closet.

Garage Conversions

Since the structure is already there, converting a garage can be cost-effective. Consider turning your garage into a studio apartment with a separate entrance. You can also convert it into a home office, children’s playroom, or home theater. No matter what you choose to do with your garage, make sure to hire a reputable remodeling company to turn it into a beautiful and functional space.

Sunroom

Sunrooms are typically smaller than a standard house addition and often made of pre-fabricated materials like aluminum and thermal-resistant glass. They aren’t used as permanent sleeping areas nor have kitchens or bathrooms. It’s because sunrooms aren’t designed as year-round permanent living spaces by code. They are also not required to have heating or air conditioning.
