Home Building questions, answered by experts

As mentioned above, cupolas are popular for barns to keep hay dry and ventilate smelly air. However, they go back to the 8th century, and you’ll find them across different styles of architecture. For example, you might see them in the Greek Revival style. You can add a cupola to almost any style of house.

A guest house is not a bump-out addition. A bump-out addition is a small home addition built onto a preexisting room of your house, like a bay window or walk-in closet. While you can do a bump-out addition to a constructed guest house, a guest is not a bump-out addition. Other common bump-out additions are extra living room seating, space for a bathtub in a bathroom, and extra cupboard space in a kitchen. 

In the U.S., original and converted carriage houses are most often found in New England, New York, and other parts of the Northeast. New construction carriage houses can be found across the country, and are often added to properties with Colonial-style homes for additional living, storage, or work space, although they can be found in many different styles.

Major home remodeling projects have some of the highest ROI for adding value to your home. For example, adding a primary bedroom can return about 55% of the investment to build. The cost of a primary bedroom suite averages $62,000—-so the high ROI helps sweeten the deal. However, always make sure to speak with a contractor and architect before adding a new room to your home, as each space affects the layout and aesthetic of your home differently.

A construction lien results from unpaid services. For instance, if a homeowner hires a contractor to do a large renovation on their home and then fails to pay for the services and materials, the contractor can take out a lien on the property. This lien is a legal claim against the property for the amount of money owed. If the homeowner does not pay their debt, the lien may stay on the title until the homeowner tries to sell and cannot do so until the title is cleared.
