[quote=earlyretirement]I can’t offer any advice on contractors but my only advice would be to go as high end as possible and do as close a job to match the rest of the house.
When we were looking at houses, last year…we saw one we really loved but they just did a horrible job on the conversion. It didn’t look like the rest of the beautiful house.
To add, I don’t even think it was legal. It just looked really awful. They were advertising it as a true bedroom even though it was just horrible and they were probably better to just have left it off as a bedroom for marketing purposes. I can’t imagine anyone really considering it a bedroom with the horrible job they did.[/quote]
I totally agree. If you’re going to do it, then do it right and make it look as if the addition was built with the house. I hate the type of addition that once you see it, you know it’s an addition. Why not spend a little more to make it look good, not just functional.
