I'm looking for ballpark estimates. Please don't send a generic reply without an estimate.
There's currently a back addition about 8 x 8 that's in bad shape. The basement (unfinished) is dug out beneath it already. We'd like to knock it down and replace it with an addition the full width of the house (about 18'), and put in a powder room and mud room, with patio doors out to the yard. We'll renovate the kitchen (which is at the back) at the same time. We already have new appliances (which can stay where they are) and new wiring, but we'll need cupboards, counter, and probably flooring.
Two options for the second floor are 1) a deck on the roof of the addition, which would require a bedroom window to be converted to a door, or 2) a second floor extension to the bedroom over about 10' of the width, and a smaller deck over the rest. With Option 2 we'd get new hardwood for the bedroom and hallway.
I'd also love there to be something like a built-in shed accessible from the yard for storing bikes, lawnmower, etc. I'm thinking it could be fit in at ground level under/beside the mudroom. The first floor is up 5 steps from the ground.
We'd do some of the less specialized jobs like painting and installing cupboards and finishes ourselves. Materials should be good quality (solid wood cupboards, ceramic or stone tile), but nothing too flashy or trendy.
What's a ballpark estimate for each option?
Thanks!
2 story addition, 15' x16', onto existing 1950's rear basement one story 8' x12' addition. Main house is over 100 years old. Remove existing cinder block 1 story 8x12 addition and roof and extend foundation to measure 15' x 16' from original rear of the house. New foundation Move existing outdoor basement entrance from the back/east side to the south side. 1st floor framed walls to a ceiling height of 9'2" . 2 large windows and walk out and new floor (added to existing=164 sq ft); 2nd floor where existing deck is extending to 15'x16' all new walls, ceiling height of 9' and new floor added A new flat roof through out. 2 new windows and a door out to a deck.

Radiant heat attached to the existing hot water boiler/radiator system (plumbing is within a few feet on each floor). Basic floor finishes, wood frame contruction, exterior cedar siding.
A similar sized project on the house next door although the main addition to the front of the existing house.
We have a 70 year old 2 storey brick house average 700 sq ft per floor. There is a fully finished basement. We would like to add a 2 storey addition at the back with 200 sq ft per floor and possibly an attic of the same size. For the main floor addition, we would like to move the kitchen to the back with a 2 piece powder room. We would like to have a master bedroom on the second storey, and for the potential attic, we would like a multipurpose room such as a guest room/office/storage. The constructions of all the homes on the same street are similar, and a majority of them have already had one or two storey extension added on to it. We would like to see how affordable, how long would it take, and what arrangement s need to be made with daily living during construction, and schedule the project. Please give us an online estimate if possible, and pls contact me if more information is needed.

Hi everyone,
I want to add second floor on my existing brick house in Toronto. Addition will have 3 bedrooms and 4 windows. Dimensions of the house are 25x26.8 ft. I want it to be done without internal finishing works. I would be very appreciated for your estimation of the cost and time to build. Even more appreciated I would be for breakdown costs as follows:
1. Second floor: - material costs, - labor costs.
2. Roof works: - material costs, - labor costs.
Thank you,
Sam
80 yr old bungalow. Det. Solid Brick total is 1000 sq ft. incl an existing addition in the back which would remain untouched. We are looking at adding 2nd storey to original building (800 sq ft). We started the paperwork process about 5-6 yrs ago. Went to committee for 2 variences and only have preliminary drawings that were used for committee. I would like 2 prices....one including finished project (hard wood floors, wood stair case & average to above-average fixtures incl bathroom ) and I would like a price for only the shell (everything except bathroom, flooring, drywall, etc) The shell quote should incl: exterior (stucco w/stone accents and/or siding) fram, heating vents, windows, frame, stairs, etc.
We own a bungalow in East York sitting on a 39x100ft lot. Our family is growing and we need extra space. A second floor would be ideal to expand on what we already have.
A new kitchen and main floor layout change would be necessary as well.
Emphasis on smart usage of space.
Ideally want 3-4 bedrooms and 4 baths.
Current House
1.5 stories, 2 bedrooms upstairs
Approximate floor size upstairs (wall to wall) 24ft x 24ft
Renovation:
1. 3 bedrooms upstairs
2. 1 bathroom upstairs
3. Enclose front cement landing to extend front hall (11.5ft x 4.5ft).
4. Extend front space (11.5ft x 4.5ft) vertically to add space to the 2nd floor
5. Aluminum siding finish.
6. Hardwood floors upstairs
Addition and interior renovation to existing single family residence, approx. 900 sf, not including

Hi. We have a house on a 60ft by 120ft lots. We like to add 2nd floor and build a detach double garage with second floor attach to the mainhouse. Would this be cheaper than knocking it down and building the house from scratch?
I would need if doing the renovation
1) designer and permit form
2) foundation
3) frame builder
4) plumber
5) electrical
etc...
I am looking for online estimates only.
This is a fully renovated brick bungalow (main floor and basement have been renovated 1 year ago). Age is about 30-50 yrs old. I would like to add a 2nd storey addition comprising of 2 large bedrooms and a 4pc bathroom. The approximate footprint is about 1000 sq ft.
I prefer the 2nd floor addition to be of brick materials and hardwood flooring throughout except for the 4 pc bathroom. Enery efficient windows to be included. We need to construct a staircase from the main floor to the 2nd floor.
Currently the house sits as a storey and a half. We only have two dormers and with four people would like to have four bedrooms, two baths and laundry on the top. The main floor will need to be totally renovated to include a new kitchen with a walkout to a deck etc. The basement will also be included with a added bathroom and perhaps a second kitchen. We would require drawsing/plans.
We currently live in a bungalow with 3 bedrooms and a 300sq. foot addition in the back. We would like to add a second floor consisting of 5 bedrooms and 3 washrooms. We would also like to turn the 300 sq. foot room into a kitchen. We would open up the main floor and change the layout to be a dining room, family room and study. We would need stairs added to get upstairs. The current house is approx. 1600 sq. feet and assuming the addition would also be 1600 sq. feet.
How much would it cost for new kitchen, reworking original house with knocking down walls and replacing the hardwood floor, adding stairs and a second story with 5 bedrooms and 3 washrooms.
Thank you in advance!
We are considering building a two-story addition onto a two-story, vinyl siding house. The addition will be 10 feet by 15 feet (approximately). The bottom floor will be attached to the kitchen and contain a family room; the upper floor will be a new master bedroom. We are in the very early stages of our planning and are trying to get an idea of price range before deciding whether it is worth the investment.
We are a prospective buyer and are considering making an offer on a semi-detached home. We would only purchase the home if our budget enabled us to add a two-story addition (to the main floor and upper floor). We would leave the basement untouched. Note that the neighbor has an extension, so one exterior wall is already built.
Main Floor Addition - We would want to rework the whole main floor. The current kitchen would get extended into the addition. The living room would get extended into the addition. We would add a powder room in the addition. We would like nicer finishings and a modern kitchen (new appliances). We are approximating that the addition would be 250 square feet.
Second Floor Addition - Currently the upstairs has a master bedroom and a second bedroom, and a bathroom. We would want to add two bedrooms, and an ensuite bathroom onto the master. This would involve reworking the layout upstairs. We are approximating that the addition would be 250 square feet.
We would be so appreciative if someone could give us a rough ballpark on pricing and timing for a project like this. We understand that this is likely a more complicated and pricier addition, so understand that will be factored into estimates.
Thank you in advance!
We're looking to expand our living space through a three-storey extension to our 2 bedroom house.

Gnd flr: Kitchen* + Den
Bsmt: Rec Room
