Family Room Additions - Home Additions Questions
1.10Can a local handyman/contractor build a home from the ground up?
Q.There is a local contractor who says they do kitchens, baths, windows, room additions, family rooms, siding, renovations, and remodeling. They told me they could build a house from the ground up but Im wondering if I should trust them to do the job (they will be SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper than a big time builder) or does this seem like a bad idea?

1.00Honeycomb shades or faux wood blinds?
Q.I'm trying to pick out some blinds for my living room and my family room. Which is more sutiable for the living room? Family room? We spend much of our time in the family room and very little in the living room. Any advice would be appreciated!
A.Honeycomb blinds help with insulation. Something to do with the shape of the blind. If utility bills are high I would go with those. If not then go for the faux wood blinds they are attractive and come in some many colors and wood grain choices.

1.00We are remodeling our kitchen and I need your opinion.Should we get rid of our back door?
Q.We are in need of more cabinet space in our some what small kitchen. We are gonna knock out one wall and open the kitchen to what will be a family room. We will also turn a 5.5 foot wide window, in the family room, into a patio door that will lead out to a soon to be deck.
We have a kitchen door that is now 3.5 feet adjacent to where said patio door will be in 6 months. We have been getting different opinions on our kitchen back door. some people say yeah remove it for more cabinets. Some say no keep if for emergency exit.
My question is if we should keep the door even though we will have another set of doors 3.5 feet away in the family room on the same wall. what do you think.
Please try to explain your answer. your opinion will help me decide.
Thanks.
A.Can you leave the door for now, purchase the cabinets necessary to go in that space, and install them when you add the family room? This would allow you to keep the door for safety's sake now but close it off for additional space later. I don't know how your countertops and such will be laid out, so I don't know if this is truly a possibility.
In any case, I'd go for the long term solution and close the door off if building codes allow it.
1.00What color walls and furniture for blue countertops?
Q.Our countertops in the kitchen turned out to be a lot more blue than we had anticipated (The sample chip looked to be mostly grey with blue and khaki accents). We have a very open floor plan, and there are no divisions between the kitchen, breakfeast nook, and family room. We don't yet have furniture for our family room, and now we're unsure what color we should get, and what color to paint the family room. Anybody have some advice? I'd prefer to have neutral color furniture, but I don't want everything to be neutral and end up looking bland.
A.Yep the 1st person took the words right out of my mouth. yellow is an excellent color with blue. you just have to be real careful and do a creamy toned down yellow. you can use rusty, pumpkin type colors as accents if the red is too eye popping.
1.00Home Additions (CALLING ALL CONTRACTERS!!)?
Q.My family would like to add on to our exsisting 1200 square foot traditional rancher. We'd like to add on a 2 car garage, 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, family room and knock out a exsisting wall in the kitchen, we are having are electricity done for free and i would greatly appreciate what the approximate cost would be and how can i save money with an addition like this?
A.You have to figure in alot of things - will it have a foundation ( basement) or slab ( for the concrete)? Plumbing will need to be run for the bathroom- the further away from the main lines ( drains and water) more itll cost) . You'll have to figure in for wall studs- roof rafters, sheetrock , insulation , nails/screws, roofing materials ( shingles,tar paper, gutters), flooring, siding , finishing materials ( vynal or tile finish floors, paint , decorating , lighting, doors ,mouldings, windows), demolition ( for the removal of the wall) , a dumpster ( for waste materials) .
Rough guess - Id say $50,000 - over $100,000 easy and always make it higher for unexpected changes - so top end will probably be an easy $200, 000. Will there be a company doing all the work? Are permits included in the bid?
You almost have to figure if its cheeper to locate a larger house then add on to the exisitng one ( unless theres a ton of property). Its a big expense.

Family Room Additions
A family room is an absolute necessity in any home. Families that have fun together and hang out together, stick together. A family room can be a place for your family to hangout and share their lives. It doesn't even need as much space as you think it does. An experienced Long Beach area family room addition contractor will be able to design the family room that speaks to your precious family.
A family room is generally reserved only for the family to hang out in or for informal entertaining of very close friends or relatives. Older homes generally have one large living room that was used for formal entertaining, and for the family to gather around a warm crackling fireplace.
