Frequently Asked Questions

Most home additions in Burlington cost between $350 and $650 per square foot in 2026. A single storey rear addition typically runs $350 to $500 per square foot, while a second storey addition runs about $420 to $650 per square foot because of the added structural work. As a rough guide, a 400 square foot addition lands around $140,000 to $220,000, and larger 800 to 1,000 square foot projects commonly reach $300,000 or more. Saveska Construction gives you a fixed written price after an on site assessment, so your number reflects your actual home, not a ballpark.

Most additions take 8 to 16 weeks of construction once permits are issued. A small single room bump out can finish in 6 to 12 weeks, while a full second storey addition often runs 3 to 4 months. Permit approval through the City of Burlington usually adds 4 to 8 weeks before construction starts. We give you a dated schedule during planning and keep you updated at every stage.

Yes, almost every home addition in Burlington needs a building permit under the Ontario Building Code, and yes, we handle the entire process for you. Permit and design costs generally run $8,000 to $30,000 depending on the size and complexity of the project, and any structural change or second storey also requires a stamped engineering assessment. We prepare the drawings, submit the application, and coordinate inspections so the project keeps moving.

A home addition contractor manages the full project from start to finish: design, permits, structural and foundation work, framing, mechanical and electrical, and all interior finishing. At Saveska Construction we act as your single point of contact so every trade is scheduled, supervised, and accountable to one team, and the new space integrates seamlessly with your existing home.

Yes. We match brick, siding, rooflines, and interior finishes so the addition reads as part of the original house rather than an add on. Matching a distinctive existing exterior, such as an older brick pattern, typically adds $8,000 to $20,000 for the integration work, and we build that into your quote up front.

We build second storey additions, rear and side extensions, in law and income suites, garage conversions, sunrooms and four season rooms, bump outs, and full room extensions. Each project is tailored to your lot, your home’s structure, and how you plan to use the space.

In most cases, yes. We seal off the work zone, control dust, and keep your kitchen and bathrooms usable wherever the scope allows. For larger second storey projects that open the roof, we will tell you honestly during planning if a short stay elsewhere makes sense.

Yes. A professionally built addition in Ontario typically recovers 70 to 90 percent of its cost in added home value, and kitchen and primary suite additions tend to sit at the top of that range. Beyond resale, you gain daily living space without the land transfer tax, agent fees, and disruption of moving.
