You Want More Space?
You might consider adding a second floor and raising your home if you are thinking about extending your house. If you raise your home, you can create a full basement from your crawl space or raise the ceiling in your basement. In addition to the methods listed above, there are other ways to double your square footage at a low cost. You can add the same amount of space in other ways while saving 60 – 70% by finishing the basement or first floor. An added benefit of raising your house as opposed to adding an extension is keeping your backyard. Most residential lots in cities are small, which means there is not much outdoor space. By raising your house, you can expand your outdoor space.
