So where's the answer to the question in the title of the video? :)

[@carpentertouch]

250k

[@aleant9227]

250k!!!!

[@aleant9227]

Wow I was wayyyy off

[@JohnDoe-wd8rs]

That’s with him doing the work guys, if you can’t calculate material in your head, don’t take on a project like this☝🏻

[@iambradleysmith2275]

Expensive might as well buy a new house

[@antoneatk7569]

I bought a brand new home 3000sqft but I need at least 2 more bedrooms. Worth adding a second floor to a brand new home? Or maybe a partial over the 3 car garage or something?

[@khwajaahmadhasan9388]

Getting a similar project done as well in the Boston suburbs. The way you’re describing the steps to complete this project gives me more confidence in my general contractor, thank you!

[@Mediaslut]

Hi Sorry to jump into your comment here but we are looking to do the same (also in the Boston suburbs) and was wondering who you used and how you found the whole process. Feel free to PM me if you are comfortable with that. M

[@claireh.7605]

Oh wow me too in same area

[@abdellahmoussaoui7654]

Ahmed hassan How much the project cost you in boston area

[@khwajaahmadhasan9388]

@@abdellahmoussaoui7654Same as the video, $250k. Though I think my contractor may have under quoted me because he later tried to screw me over with cheap sub-standard labor and materials and threaten to stop work whenever I bring up a point in the contract that he refuses to do (building a bathroom on the second floor). A reputable and honest builder would probably be more around $300k in my area.

[@TriggaTreDay]

@@khwajaahmadhasan9388why are yall paying to much to get a second floor? It really doesn’t makes since that my husband who is a construction inspector for residential and commercial properties is always telling me that to build a large house with top notch everything in our expensive area should cost no more than $600k and this includes a full basement and 2 stories, but y’all are trying to pay $250-300k for just 1 additional level???? This stuff is so misleading.

[@vanderumd11]

I just completed this build here near Washington DC. When I say these customers have told the neighbors and let's say.. it will be a busy few years to come

[@DB-in6mi]

if you dont mind, can you share how much sqft and the cost? I and also near DC and looking to buy and add as well if needed.

[@richardburchett]

I love it. I've got a cape cod house with beautiful limestone exterior. I'd like to raise the second floor to a full size upstairs and maybe configure pulling the facade forward to make a covered porch in front of the existing house. This is helpful to see what the process looks like.

[@malloryjohnson6192]

I enjoyed your humor! Fun and interesting video!

[@claireh.7605]

I want a second floor addition, but I don’t want to waste the old growth lumber making my attic rafters. Modern rafters are these tiny fragile white things. My rafters are fur wide burgundy color with many growth rings.

[@rickboucher9329]

I changed my negative comment to a positive one. Obviously we all want to do something like this to our house but we're curious about cost but we don't want to waste contractors times getting estimates. Ballparks are very very helpful. Thanks

[@carpentertouch]

250k

[@carpentertouch]

Thanks Rick...

[@vcsuri-q5q]

Does the foundation need to be reinforced on 1950’s Capes in this area? Most of them were built with the same blueprint.

[@coachiti2009]

Maybe you were nervous, but you should’ve gotten a temp pole so you could work in the house without any unnecessary hazards. Glue is used to reduce squeaking floor. It’s not used to strengthen the joists. 😅

[@careybey7254]

Loved the intro 🤣

[@mp-sv2cp]

$250k? That’s overpriced in my opinion. Most just 2nd floors cost $150k and that’s a small home

[@aleant9227]

That’s what I was thinking. 150k

[@mp-sv2cp]

@@aleant9227yeh at $250k? Literally homeowner got ripped off.

[@cornejorge]

@@nickd1978 hello, I am thinking doing the same thing, where did you do this project?

[@zigoor22]

@@nickd1978 who is your contractor? Had to look for one in MD

[@carpentertouch]

Remember guy addition in New Jersey cost different than Mass or NYC . We are around $200 to $300 a sq ft

Contractors keep being greedy and people gone start doing it themselves 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@Darkeiser.7]

Now you got me thinking

[@Chic.Geek75]

Where in NJ y'all at? We planning to do a second fl in 2024 in Woodbridge, NJ..we have the plans already

[@carpentertouch]

send the plans to [e-mail] we are located in Livingston, Nj

[@carpentertouch]

in livingston nj

[@jaysantana4186]

How much does that cost now ?

[@robertcolon4998]

You forgot to tell us the cost of the 2nd floor

[@drers25i]

Exactly I was wondering the same thing.

[@str8kronic]

Hi, do u service barnegat, NJ? Would love to get a price quote. Love your videos

[@carpentertouch]

Too far south jersey

[@sabracroft9057]

What was the original sq footage of the home?

[@carpentertouch]

yes

[@CJ2K]

ok

[@javamochafrap]

Clickbait title.. because you never spoke about the COST

[@carpentertouch]

Read other comment and shared the price

[@SajiRavi]

Do you do it in PA as well... Yardley PA

[@carpentertouch]

sorry only in NJ

[@ozonespec]

They're basically paying for labor for this dumb idea. 250k to add 2nd floor to a tiny cape rectangle 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂. Looks like Jersey so I'm sure they could've sold that house for 350k minimum. Take that 350k add it to the 250k for the dumb addition and buy a small piece of land. Build a large 1800-2000 sq ft ranch with a finished basement. Will get you close to 4k total sq ft.

[@carpentertouch]

Not in Jersey.. prices are high here

[@susieblanco2722]

I plan to do this to my home …

[@carpentertouch]

if your in NEW Jersey I can help

[@user-vt2vd4ek4b]

No need extra support

[@HawkGTboy]

Honestly, just tear down and rebuild at this point.

[@carpentertouch]

I wish .. due to the high taxes in NJ .. the homeowner will have to pay more in taxes due to New construction fee

[@cornejorge]

895, getting there brother

[@carpentertouch]

We got to over 1k thanks for your support

[@user-um7wd9ot5y]

$250k for only the second floor addition? With finishes?

[@carpentertouch]

3 bed room and bathroom

[@Drshawty112]

What's the project estimate?

[@carpentertouch]

250k

[@guzmanfrank96]

How much does it cost? I watched this video for nothing

Serious dude !!! Click bait !!! No final cost 🤥

Squirrel! I mean roof.

[@TheCowardStrikesBack]

$250/sq ft. here in Connecticut.

Great price

[@yrubio3217]

Title misleading. No answer at all.

[@tarzasha]

Why would anyone subscribe to your channel when you don't deliver what you clearly say in your title? Come on man. This is like click bait.

[@carpentertouch]

It not click bate … what is your question? How much it cost to do a new addition? If your in the New Jersey area it’s $200 to $300 a sq foot. So if you have 1000 sq x 200= 200,000. Remember you can control your budget. I hope I helped you

[@Zombieatackplan31]

You didn’t answer the question.

[@carpentertouch]

what was the question

[@Zombieatackplan31]

The title of the video, “How much does it cost” I would say a better name for this video would be “How long does it take” which would probably be a question a lot of people ask next after “how much does it cost”

[@AnotherCritic100]

Where the hell is part 2? Its supposed to follow part one but I cant find it and hate playing hide and go seek. NOT subscribing, later.

[@thomasbossman]

This video was horrible I clicked on it to see how much something like that would run and to be honest and did not get the information I was looking for. There's nothing mentioned about price in this video at all.

[@carpentertouch]

Read the comments and you will find the answers

[@carpentertouch]

If you need a price I can help u

Takes two minutes to get to your video, no thanks
