We are a General Contracting firm serving central and southern Vermont and New Hampshire since 1984. We offer a variety of construction services from design / build to working off your plans. We can work with you from concept to completion. Our seasoned construction team consists of estimating, project management, on and off site supervision, carpenters and mechanics. www.wrightconstruction.com

"I had serious water problems in my basement, and a crumbling foundation. The concrete block foundation had lost a lot of its grout and was bulging dangerously. Wright straightened the wall, installed French drains on two sides of the house, insulated the interior walls and ceiling of the basement, and installed a thick plastic vapor barrier on the floor. They poured about four inches of cement on the floor and installed a heater that will keep the temperature above freezing in the basement. This makes it easier to turn on the water and to heat the upstairs if I come up in the winter. The cost was about $40,000. I was very pleased with Wright's workmanship, responsiveness and the quality of their staff. I would recommend Wright without hesitation to anyone with an engineering problem."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Common pitfalls include underestimating the cost of site preparation, overlooking permit and utility fees, and not setting aside funds for unexpected changes. Change orders during construction can disrupt your budget. It’s best to plan a detailed budget, obtain multiple quotes, and include a 10% to 15% contingency fund for unexpected expenses.

You can’t add home addition costs to an existing mortgage, but you can include them in a new mortgage if you take out a rehab loan. Rehab loans—FHA-backed 203k loans and conventional rehab loans—are for more than the value of a property, and the excess is meant to cover the cost of a renovation or home addition.

Many providers assist with obtaining necessary permits. Confirm with your contractor.

The average guest house is between 600 and 1,500 square feet. If you are unsure of how large you should build it, a good basic rule is to have one bedroom for every two occupants, at minimum. Generally, one bedroom for every one to two people is a good ratio. 

Home additions cost between $22,000 and $84,000, with the average addition totaling $51,000. Project costs can vary greatly depending on the type of addition and the required work to complete it. Homeowners can expect to pay between $80 and $210 per square foot for an addition. Conversions of existing space will sit toward the lower end of that range, while bump-outs and new construction add-ons will push toward the higher end.
