How much does a home addition cost in Southeast Michigan?

Most home additions by Lux Builders run $150,000–$500,000+, depending on square footage, foundation type, and what the new space contains — a primary suite with bath costs more per foot than a family room. One True Price fixes the full number before we break ground.

Love the neighborhood, need more house

An addition is the answer when the location is right and the square footage isn't. It is also the project where allowance-based bids go wrong most expensively — structural surprises, roof tie-ins, and matching finishes. Our design-first process engineers those risks out before pricing, which is why our price holds.

Our process: One True Price

Four stages. One fixed price before construction begins. No allowances, no surprises.
