Hi guys,
I purchased a single story semi-d house a couple of years back. I was thinking of converting it to double story as the current built up is very small (about 900 sq feet). The land area is about 3000 sq feet, so I am planning to extend it to about 1300 sq feet. So the total built up should be around 2600 sq feet.

Just in case here is the specs:-
1)Total built-up 2600 sq feet (2 floors)
2)4 rooms & bathrooms
I just need a rough estimation to tear the down the current structure and rebuild the 2 storey house. Doesn't have to include the fixtures. And if you have any contractor you can recommend, I would really appreciate it.

Always engage an architect first instead of others. I wonder why people engage contractor and ID first but not following the proper way which is to engage the architect first and follow the proper way to start the construction? ultimately, who will be designing the building and issue the CCC in the end?
