Is $80000.00 Too Much To Pay A Pro To Add 6 Ft To Kitchen 11×17 Add 10×18 Brkfst Rm, & Redo Bathroom Bigger?
currently, the kitchen is from 1952, appliances are newer (but we will be updating them anyway). the 2nd floor bathroom leaks and is from 1972, needs to be gutted and redone.
It may or may not be too much. It depends on whether or not you are supplying any items yourself and the extent of the work. Do try to go with a design build firm though. Their overhead is lower because they offer design & construction under one roof and will offer you a single project manager who has experience in both fields. You basically get a two for one deal instead of just a contractor. Be sure to check for insurance and licenses and definitely get references! If you are in the NY/NJ/CT metro area, I am co-owner of a design and construction firm. I’d be happy to give you another estimate. You may email me for more information or visit my website http://www.dwelldesignbuild.com. Good luck.
10 years ago, i added 40 ft X 20 ft to my home (extra living room, sliding glass door, now front alcove, and a new master bedroom) plus siding on the whole home and new windows all around. this only totalled 40000.00 canadian. you might need to look at a few places and get referrals (at least 2 from reliable sources) so you dont get ripped off.
I know a guy who remodels and rebuilds kitchens and he said that the price depends on the quality of the job and where your geographical location. As a safeguard it is always good to get several estimates and choose a trusted company that does a quality job.
