If you love your home but have outgrown it, a house extension is a great alternative to moving. Save time and money looking for a new home and resettling, plus save on moving costs and stamp duty.
Well-constructed single storey home extensions can be a fantastic way to generate valuable living space, or finally achieve the design style of your dreams. As your family grows and lifestyle priorities change, it’s important that your home evolves too.
The advantages of staying where you are and adding a single storey extension are undeniable. You’ll save on real estate fees, legal bills, moving costs and stamp duty, as well as the time and stress involved in searching for another property. Then there are the emotional benefits of staying in the location you know and love.
Sometimes it’s just not possible to achieve what you need within your existing walls. Even a clever home renovation may not solve the problem if you need an extra bedroom, more living space, a second bathroom or more storage.
At Saskatoon Home Renos, we have carried out many single storey home extensions, and we find it immensely rewarding when we see the difference even relatively small extensions and renovations make to our clients lives.
Benefits of Single Floor Extension
Budget Saver
Giving your existing home a face lift is often a more cost effective solution than a new build or buying a bigger house. You’ll save on real estate fees, legal bills, moving costs, stamp duty and a host of other relocation expenses.
When deciding between a home extension and relocating to a new home, often the real cost of relocation is overlooked. These costs are sometimes greater than 8% of the value of the home – funds that could make a substantial contribution towards the cost of a renovation or extension on your existing home.
A single storey extension is generally more affordable than building a second storey extension. While the foundation needs to be solid, less serious structural work is needed to accommodate a new first floor.
More Accessible
Single storey home extensions are appealing for families with young children keen to explore stairs, or with older household members who may find climbing up and down a challenge. Ground floor households can also be more easily adapted for those with mobility or other special needs.
The Perfect Design
Getting the right team on board to undertake single storey home extensions is crucial.
Our professional designers work with you to create a design that effortlessly complements your existing home. The right planning, collaboration and creativity can produce ingenious ideas for a successful ground floor addition that perfectly balances functionality with visual impact.
House extensions and renovations give you the freedom to unleash your personality into your home. It can be deeply exhilarating, exciting and addictive to make decisions on everything from the number of bedrooms and type of storage space to the design style of your home.
We have numerous repeat clients who have enjoyed the building process so much, they have confidently returned to us to repeat the process when they’ve moved on to their next home.
How Much Will an Additional Storey Cost?
Generally the cost of building single storey extensions is cheaper than building a double storey extension. Keeping outward means that you can keep your original roof, allowing you to extend the streetscape presence of your house which in turn can increase the value of your home. The lower cost of single storey extensions can also mean that further additions such as kitchen renovation or a bathroom renovation are possible.
Our pricing is highly competitive. We specialize in saving you thousands of dollars when building your extension or house renovation because of the proven process and long term experience in the industry.
