Good contractors for room addition? (insurance, how much, home)

[travlingrlclt]

I want to add a heated /air conditioned sunroom off our den. Anyone used any good contractors for room additions. I contacted one of the big guys and the quote was insane just to add a 12X10 room.

I don't know if she'll be any better pricewise but we've been very pleased with Michele Griffin-Roberts at M&M Home Improvements . Her cell phone is 704-201-6912. She has recently renovated two bathrooms for us and done a beautiful job. She's very personable and easy to work with.

As far as prices go, we were stunned when we learned (not from her) how much it would cost toad a sunroom to our house. We gave up on the idea.

You can DM me if you want more info.

Well to add at 12X10 room might not seem like much but consider all that has to be done ! Exterior (brick, siding) Foundation, building permits etc paper work, the roof if joining it to an existing room, what was the estimate by the way? Profit is a must these days ! Becareful hiring someone to do the work !! Get a very professional company that you can hold liable if something were to go wrong ! Make sure they have insurance too ! GOODLUCK on the add on !

The estimate we got was $25k and we have vinyl siding on the house. We didn't want to go over $15k.

When I talked about a sunroom - somewhat bigger than yours - it would have attached to the family room with french doors and one wall of Hardyboard siding - it was over $25K. My friend at Rehobeth in Delaware paid $20K for a great sunroom. I thought I could do better in Charotte, but I was wrong.

You are right, Linkin, I was amazed at everything that went into our bathrooms. Every little thing costs materials and labor.

My parents have a screened-in porch off the back of their house; it already has a floor and a roof, etc. They want to enclose it with glass windows to keep all the pollen from getting in. The quote they got back was $23K. Just to enclose the room in windows! No foundation, roof, floor, or anything else -- just the window frames and glass. Ridiculous.

Try Harp Renovations Inc. Very reasonable prices and great service. They are certified by NARI and have a great track record.

You could also try Diamond Builders Inc. I hear great things about them also. They do a cost feasibility plan as part of their service.

And A Dependable Home repair is another one I hear good things about.

I'm happy to help with the process if you'd like DM me if so.
