It's been exhausting and overwhelming but well worth the trip I have to say. Paid the last contractor yesterday so now it's just buying decorations and all the stuff that makes a house a home.
Kids are in their own bedrooms - and quite content. Will take some getting used to being upstairs with a whole extra room to read/play/craft/sing/whatever but I think we'll manage.
So we added about 900 square feet up top and a screened in porch. Began it in June and finished beginning of August. I was prepared for 3 months of work but happy with 2 months. Cost came in right about $100/sq. ft. ($90,000) which was the goal, though I had hoped to bring that in lower as well. All in all, a good project that didn't end in divorce, fire, or rain of toads.
I'd use all of our contractors again and will gladly share their names with any who ask. Here's a tiny video link of our newly renovated home. Enjoy!
