"I wanted to convert my two-stall attached garage into a combination living space/utility room and Jon undertook the project. He did the following: * removed the garage door; in its place built a wall with openings for a triple window and a door; placed ZIP sheathing on the outside of that framing; in front of that wall built a cement ledge with a brick and mortar wall on top of it * installed Roxul insulation in the new wall and two of the existing walls * installed drywall on the three walls and several places in the ceiling where it was damaged or missing; taped the seams, applied compound, and sanded * built an uninsulated interior wall with a door opening * applied two coats of Behr paint to all the walls and the ceiling * installed three light/fan combos in the living area and a light in the utility room ceiling * installed Schluter Ditra on the living space floor followed by 17” x 17” porcelain tiles arranged in a diamond pattern and baseboard tiles around the living space perimeter * installed two steel exterior doors and one Larson exterior aluminum door along with their knobs and locks * replaced the attic door with an insulated one from Werner. Everything was done the way I wanted it done. The result was all that I had envisioned. I intend to call on Jon in the future to remodel the interior of my home and maintain its exterior (painting, roofing)."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

The primary reason homes have crawl spaces is so the foundation can reach down below the frost line to avoid dangerous soil movement and structural damage when the ground freezes. They’re more popular in colder climates where the ground freezes down to a few feet, and slabs are most popular in warmer areas where there is no frost line. Crawl spaces also provide a space for utility lines to run where they’re at less of a risk of freezing.

The average cost to renovate or remodel a home is $52,300, with most projects ranging from $19,500 to over $88,400. However, costs can vary significantly, from as low as $3,000 for a small project to $170,000 or more for a complete home remodel.

Several factors influence the total price, including:

  • Project Scope and Size: The extent of the renovations, whether it's a single room or the entire house.

  • Location: Geographic location affects labor and material costs.

  • Materials: The quality of materials chosen.

  • Room Type: Kitchen remodels ($14,500 - $70,000+) are generally more expensive than bedroom remodels ($1,500 - $5,500).

  • Other Factors: The time of year, complexity of the work, and any additions or expansions.

On a per-square-foot basis, you can expect to pay between $15 and $60 for standard projects and up to $150 for luxury renovations.

Examples of specific project costs include:

  • Basement remodel: ~$20,200

  • Garage remodel: ~$27,900

  • Loft conversion: ~$20,200

  • Disability accommodation remodel: ~$4,300

  • Major home repairs: ~$11,700

If you are financing the project, note that some loan programs, like the FHA 203(k), may require a minimum project cost (e.g., $5,000) and will necessitate a home appraisal and professional cost estimates. Using a home renovation cost estimator can also help you budget for your project.

Start by researching local contractors with experience in cottage construction. Ask for references, check licensing and insurance, and review completed projects. Compare multiple bids, making sure each includes the same scope of work. A good contractor will communicate clearly, provide a detailed contract, and ensure all work meets code and safety standards.

Ranch and colonial-style homes are often the most affordable to build. They have a common layout with available designs that are easy to adjust in simple ways without having to spend too much on a structural engineer or architect. Both types of homes' symmetry, simple roofs, and often one or two-story plans mean they often fall in the $150 to $200 square-foot range, putting them right around average.

Remodeling a house is often less expensive than building a new house. You can expect to pay an average of $100 per square foot when you are remodeling. The cost to build a house averages about $150 per square foot. When remodeling, though, some rooms cost more than $100 per square foot and some cost less. Use a home renovation cost estimator to accurately estimate your remodeling costs.
