Alternatively, you could consider cutting an existing bedroom in half in order to create space. If you do not have sufficient space in your home then you will need to have an extension built on your home.

Be sure to get a contract in writing and have it reviewed by your lawyer before you sign it. The contract should clearly say what work the contractor will do and at what price.
 Allow your contractor to help you with this.
