New build vs renovation: which is right for you?

When renovation makes sense

Sound structure and foundation, a layout that mostly works, heritage incentives, or a need to stay in the home during work.

When rebuilding makes sense

Major foundation or envelope failure, a layout that needs to change entirely, or when renovation costs approach the cost of new construction.

Warranty and value

New homes carry the 2-5-10 warranty and are built to current energy codes. Renovations keep character and can cost less if the bones are good.
