Adding square footage is a great way to gain space without moving. Here is what Los Angeles homeowners should expect.
Types of additions
- Room addition: extending the home outward for a bedroom, office, or expanded living area.
- Primary-suite addition: a bedroom and bathroom, often the highest-value add.
- Second-story addition: the most complex, since it involves structural and foundation work.
What drives cost
Additions are usually priced by square footage, but foundation work, roofline changes, and tying into existing systems all affect the total. A second-story addition costs more per square foot than a ground-floor one.
