"How can I possibly thank Dave enough for this project?? A few months back, I contacted Dave for a quote for an unusual project: I wanted to do a major renovation to my father's bedroom in his house while he was gone on a trip as a surprise. This room hadn't been remodeled since 1990 when he bought the house, and though he'd started it a few years ago, my mother became ill and passed away, so the project got put on hold and never picked up again. That's where Dave came in. He was so thoughtful, and his work is SO stunning. He replaced the carpet with hardwood, tore out the old heating, tore out the old closets and built a beautiful walk-in dressing room. He plastered the walls, replaced the last old window in the room and trimmed everything out to match the rest of the house--all covertly while my dad was away. I revealed the surprise last night, and my father was so overwhelmed by the beautiful work that he actually teared up. Thank you so much, Dave!!!"

"We hired Altitude Builders to replace an existing deck that was old and rotting. After vetting out several contractors to decide between composite or pressure treated wood, we found Eli to be professional, straightforward and reasonable when it came to our ideas on what we wanted in a deck. His timeline and pricing was the best. He presented us with all requested documentation (contractor license, insurance, and contract) and started on the day he stated. Project went slightly longer because we needed additional footings and extension beyond the original scope of work. At the end of each day, the site was clean and nothing was left out of place. My deck is solid, sturdy and beautiful! His workmanship and professionalism were wonderful. We will be using Altitude builders again for additional work in the near future. Highly Recommended!"

"I thought I'd provide a 6-month update on the work performed by Coen. In short, we selected them to do some minor renovations to the bedroom and living room - ceiling repair and electrical work - and then paint the entire interior of the unit. It was horrible. We settled a reduced fee and went our separate ways. Since then, we've had to remove the work they did and repaint the entire hallway, bathroom, and kitchen due to paint peeling. Based on the prior experience and having visited during the renovation, they didn't prep a single thing - the walls definitely needed that even prior to other work starting. The new contractors very clearly were able to show how the surfaces weren't prepared at all for paint related to dust under all of the layers from the drywall and other construction work they did. Not a single apology or visit from the owners to date. Don't waste your time, money, or effort on this company whatsoever."

Detached structures generally require more investment than interior conversions due to additional foundation work, independent utility connections, and exterior construction requirements. These standalone offices typically align with addition costs, ranging from $80 to $300 per square foot depending on design complexity and finish quality. Consider additional expenses for separate heating/cooling systems, insulation requirements, and potential zoning restrictions when planning a detached workspace.
Most jurisdictions require permits for structural modifications, electrical work, plumbing installations, and HVAC alterations. Requirements vary significantly between municipalities, making consultation with local building authorities essential before beginning work. Proceeding without proper permits can result in financial penalties, construction delays, or requirements to remove non-compliant installations, potentially increasing your overall project cost substantially.
Converting existing space is typically more economical, with costs ranging from $50 to $200 per square foot compared to $80 to $300 per square foot for new additions. Room conversions avoid expenses associated with foundations, exterior walls, roofing, and additional utility connections. Your decision should consider not only immediate costs but also how repurposing existing space might affect your home's overall functionality and value proposition.
Room conversions typically require between two and six weeks, depending on the extent of modifications. Building an addition generally takes three to four months from initial planning through final inspection. Your project timeline depends on permit processing, contractor availability, material delivery schedules, and any unforeseen complications discovered during construction. Weather conditions and seasonal factors may also influence completion timelines, particularly for exterior construction phases.
Home office expenses related to business activities may qualify for tax deductions, though specific eligibility requirements apply. You'll need to maintain thorough documentation of expenses and use the space exclusively for business purposes to qualify for most deductions. Tax benefits vary based on employment status, space utilization, and current tax regulations. Consulting a qualified tax professional before making renovation decisions can help you understand potential financial advantages specific to your situation.
