"Ken and his crew built me 2 beautiful bamboo decks. One large and one small. They also replaced all the plywood and siding on the back of my house. Our upper deck, which is the larger one has a water drainage system so we can have a living space underneath. The lower deck, which is the smaller one is flanked by concrete planter boxes and looks awesome! Despite last winters heavy storms, they got the job done quickly and efficiently."

"Our goal was to build a structurally safe garage storage loft. Juan and Julian were a great team to work with. They were very professional and organized- they gave us a quote and clearly communicated what the plan would look like from beginning to end. They guided us on the items that we needed to buy prior to starting the work in order to complete the project within the estimated time. They suggested modifications that were minor fixes but made the layout make more sense in terms of placement. Their crew finished a day ahead of schedule. They kept a clean work site and the quality of the results were great. I would gladly work with them on another home project in the future!"

Major home repairs (general contractor) FAQs

The timeline for raising a sunken living room varies depending on your specific project. Factors affecting the schedule include the size of the area, the complexity of the work, and whether you're installing new flooring throughout adjacent rooms. Your contractor will need to remove existing flooring, build up the sunken area, allow time for materials to set properly, and then install finished flooring. Be sure to discuss the expected timeline with your contractor during the planning phase.

Raising a sunken living room is a significant structural modification that should be done with proper engineering considerations. When performed correctly by qualified professionals, the project shouldn't negatively impact your home's structural integrity. However, improper installation could lead to issues like uneven floors or inadequate support. This is why hiring an experienced and licensed home remodeling contractor who understands the structural requirements and building codes for such modifications is recommended.

Yes, contractors can raise sunken living rooms with concrete slab foundations. The process involves pouring new concrete to fill the depression or building a wood-framed floor system over the existing slab. For a 400-square-foot room with a six-inch depression, filling with concrete would cost approximately $2,400 before adding finished flooring. The approach your contractor recommends will depend on your specific situation, including the height differential and your preferred finished floor type.

When raising a sunken living room, you'll need to consider how the new flooring will transition to adjacent areas. Your options include extending the new flooring throughout connected spaces for a seamless look, using transition strips between different flooring types, or selecting complementary materials that create an intentional design feature. Discuss these options with your flooring professional to determine the best approach for your home's specific layout and your aesthetic preferences.
