Single-Family Residence Renovation & Addition – Augusta, Georgia

Residential 5,700 SF $1.5M+ Project

SMA Estimating prepared a complete general contractor estimate for a major renovation and addition to a single-family home of about 5,700 square feet in Augusta, Georgia. It was a residential project worth more than $1.5 million, and it covered every trade from demolition to final finishes.

Our team delivered a detailed quantity takeoff and cost estimate organized by CSI division. The work started with selective demolition: removing the entire existing roof, interior and exterior walls, ceilings, brick veneer, flooring, doors, windows, sidewalks and the driveway. The new construction scope included concrete footings and slabs, CMU walls, brick veneer, pre-engineered floor and roof trusses, wood framing, and both architectural shingle and standing seam metal roofing.

On the exterior, we priced fiber cement siding, soffits and trim, aluminum windows, the overhead garage door, gutters and flashing. Interior finishes included drywall, insulation, LVT, carpet and ceramic tile, cabinetry, solid surface countertops, stairs, doors, hardware and painting.

The estimate also covered the MEP and fire protection trades: a 7-ton HVAC system with ductwork, a full plumbing fixture and piping package, lighting, panels, wiring, a fire alarm system and a residential fire sprinkler system.

This project shows SMA Estimating's experience with residential construction estimating in Georgia. We give builders and remodelers accurate, bid-ready numbers across every trade.
