Can an ADU be bigger than your house?

• <div><p>Local regulations dictate how big an ADU can be, and there may also be restrictions on the percentage of the main residence’s square footage an ADU can have. In most cases, an ADU must be smaller than the main residence, but check with your local building authority to confirm restrictions on ADU size.</p></div>

Q: Should I buy or build an outdoor room?

• <div><p>Prefab kits like a small sunroom for around <b>$20,000</b> or even a basic gazebo roof for as little as $60 can save you big over professional installation. However, you lose the option for customization, and these structures tend not to last nearly as long. As for bigger projects like a deck or patio, you shouldn&rsquo;t go with the DIY route unless you&rsquo;re fully prepped with the tools and know-how to get it done right. Mistakes can be frustrating and costly, so choose a pro if you&rsquo;re looking to eliminate your risk of error.</p></div>

Q: Is it less expensive to move a house or build one?

• <div><p>Building a house is generally more expensive upfront than moving an existing one. However, the total cost depends on factors such as location, size, materials, labor, and permits. Moving a house can incur significant expenses for transportation, permits, site preparation, and renovations. On the other hand, building a new house allows for customization and may have lower long-term maintenance costs.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between a pool house and an ADU?

• <div><p>An ADU is a section of your home that you can feasibly use to house guests or even tenants. Pool houses can be ADUs if they include a kitchen, a bathroom, and a bedroom, but smaller pool houses and pool sheds are more for the homeowner to get more enjoyment out of their pool than for guests.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to build a cabin or house?

• <div><p>While a log cabin is often less expensive to build than a typical home, cabins actually have a similar cost per square foot. The main difference affecting price is that log cabins tend to be much smaller than traditional homes. For instance, many cabins are about 500 square feet, versus a traditional house which averages between 2,000 and 3,000 square feet.</p></div>

I live in a 1950s house with a huge backyard. There wasn't any type of back deck/patio area when I bought the home, so I researched companies to build an entire screened-in porch from scratch. Larry Hubble, the owner of Lone Star Patio in BCS, was extremely professional and made me feel very...
