    Costs for your home addition vary depending on scope, materials, and complexity. Every project is different, so we provide detailed estimates customized to your specific goals and budget. Please reach out to Nehemiah Construction for a quote and we'll walk you through your options after an in-home consultation.

    Most Athens home additions take 2 to 5 months depending on size and complexity.

    We work with Payzer, RenoFi, and Service Finance Company. Payzer handles online decisions for most renovation-scale projects, RenoFi makes sense when you want to borrow against the future value of a renovated home, and Service Finance Company offers longer-term options for larger builds. Payment on the project itself is structured around a deposit at signing, installments tied to visible completion milestones, and a final payment at walkthrough. Every milestone corresponds to real progress on site — we do not draw for work we have not completed.

    For a home addition quote in Athens, we itemize foundation, framing, roofing tie-in, mechanical extensions, insulation, and finish, demo and haul-off, permits and inspections, labor, materials, and a cleanup allowance. The estimate notes our assumptions — for example, whether we expect to encounter aluminum wiring, outdated plumbing, or hidden water damage — so there is full transparency on what could trigger a change order. You receive the written estimate after our walkthrough.

    Expect an on-site walkthrough at your Athens property, no charge, no commitment. Chanch or a team lead arrives, looks at the space, measures, takes photos, and asks about your goals, your timeline, and your budget. For a home addition, the length of the visit depends on how much existing-condition assessment is needed — older homes with hidden issues take longer. You tell us what you want, we tell you what is realistic given scope and budget, and we flag any concerns we spot. A written itemized estimate follows the visit.
