Since the housing market is down does that mean that home remodeling companies are charging less for jobs?
Question : Since the housing market is down does that mean that home remodeling companies are charging less for jobs?
I want to add a 10 x 18 horizontal addition to the back of my home and wonder if no is the time to do it? I hear a estimate would be around $ 50-60 per square foot maybe? Am I off? I assume this would include heating and air,roofing, windows,painting,etc.. If there is someone familiar with this stuff please let me know if I am on target or not.

not only will the price be a bit lower, you might not have to wait as long and there is a good chance that the people doing the will be more competent than what you would have had to put up with a year or so ago. I think (hope) all the marginal companies and contractors have been put right out of business and only the good ones are left.
You need to get several estimates. Explain everything that you want and have it bidded out. do not guess. However, you might find a lttle bit better price because people do want work, but having a contract is the key to not getting screwed in an economy like this.
