Getting The True Cost for Renovating a House
In all the years our remodeling division operated, we learned that most homeowners really didn't have a proper place to research the true cost of remodeling. Because of this missing link in the construction industry, the highly inspired creator of SimplyAdditions.com; Voitek Klimczyk, set out to create the one and only site a homeowner needs to trust for their current and future remodeling and building needs.
Give Them Renovation Costs
Why should you as a homeowner be subjected to using the ancient TELEPHONE, when you can very easily click or swipe your way through hundreds of project pages and how-to articles on SimplyAdditions.com. Every home addition plan is completed with useful facts and our trademark renovation costs information. Yep, our mission is to make a homeowners life easier whenever they have to build or remodel, so bookmark us under the "Our House" category in your browser favorites menu. That way, an instant remodeling estimate on your project is only a click away!
The fact is that hiring a contractor can still be a very difficult and stressful process for most homeowners. It's the very reason SimplyAdditions.com fulfills their role as the leading home improvement website dedicated to consumer education. We're so dedicated that we won Awards for Excellence in Consumer Education , year after year until the Better Business Bureau asked Mr. Klimczyk kindly to not apply anymore because our outright usefulness constantly beat out the competition. We enjoyed dominating the BBB Awards but agreed to let other join in on the festivities.
