Im looking to start a project next year. House is about 1000sq ft bungalow on a 40x125 lot. We will be looking to demo it and build a new house.
Few questions:
1. Aproximate cost to demolish and remove the debris?
2. Architectural costs?
3. Aproximate cost for new foundation, aprox 1200sq ft
4. Framing for 2 storey 2600-2700sq ft house.
Thank you,
Steve
Hello Steve,
In Alberta demo would be about 10-13k, your Architectural if done by a draftsman could be between 2500-7500.00 depending on revisions and design, New foundation generally runs with all the surveys waterproofing and cribbing 30-40k, Framing labour about 16k lumber really depends on design and layouts
Hi Steve,
1. Cost to demo is around $15-18k
2. Architectural drawings should be around $2500
3. Foundation will be around $10-15k for an 8 foot basement
4. Framing for a two storey 2700sq foot would be around $25-30k
Thank you for the replies.
What are the pros and cons of keeping the existing foundation and building on top of that or is it recommended to demo everything and start from scratch?
Also how does the city typically look at completely new builds versus keeping the foundation and adding an addition builds
Thanks,
Steve
