Addition Build

Building an Addition Onto My House

I built an addition onto my house! I also renovated the rest of it. I did just everything for it, apart from the insulation! I had a couple of friends help pour a bunch of concrete and I’ll be eternally grateful for their help!

The timelapse I made of it is one of the coolest things I’ve made so far and it can be found below!

This is about two years of work on it in a minute! I can completely understand why cedar shingles are not a common siding choice anymore since they easily added 10 months onto the project. A longer version of the timelapse can be found here. And an instructable that I wrote detailing the process of building it can be found here.

Below is a gallery of pictures detailing the steps in the addition build. Demolition was by far the funnest part of it!

In addition to building the addition I also renovated just about the entire interior of the house too. This is what it looked like when I moved into it:

And this is what the finished house looked like in the listing photos when I sold it in April of 2022!
