I'm considering a simple home addition and would like to be able to come up with a simple rough estimate. The house is single storey with a peaky A-frame attic and is 30 ft wide at the base of the end that I would be extending. I would like to take that end out another 24 feet. That means-
80 lineal feet of concrete footing.
80 lineal feet of exterior framing and sheathing.
1350 square feet of rough flooring.
875 square feet of roof and roofing.
If I carry on like this and calculate the materials cost at Home Depot prices will that result in a somewhat meaningful number?
Thanks!
Dave
