"We had BCM London renovate our master bathroom and had an incredible experience from start to finish! We had 4 companies come to do an estimate and decided on BCM London- their professionalism, responsiveness and detailed outline for the plan + payment after each section was completed made us feel confident with our choice. Salar was extremely responsive and answered every question I had. We went with the designer they recommended and we LOVE the final result. We would absolutely use them again!"

Established in 1987, GP Hardscape Pavers, Inc. in Cumming, GA is a family owned Atlanta Hardscape business. I’m Eddie Galvao and I started working installing pavers and retaining walls in the Sunshine State more than 20 years ago. Back then, I was mostly a middle man contractor for other larger companies, but felt the need for something bigger. So I moved on to being a paver contractor in Cumming, Georgia and started my own company, GP Hardscape, Inc.
"Great job! Iraci and her team at GP Hardscape were very professional, they constructed a walkway and build a retaining wall and a patio that is the envy of my neighbors. They did everything in a timely manner and finished the job on time."

"We used Limitless Renovations to redo our kitchen. We had a nice size, white kitchen, but the white was made up of a lot of laminate and an old hood, old sink and old faucet. When LR came in from day one, Cristina, was very helpful and patient with the things we wanted and gave us some good ideas as well. She explained we would also be hearing from Jeremiah, who heads up the installers. He came by, went over everything again, measured and let us know what the next step was. Kiki then emailed me to be our contact on setting up the start date and letting us know where we were with all our materials. We were set up to get the kitchen done while we were on vacation. We were concerned but we received pictures from Joseph who made our kitchen dreams come true. The whole experience was a good one. Everyone was easy to work with and our next project will be done by Limitless Renovations. Thanks guys!!"

Second story addition building services FAQs
Converting a vaulted ceiling into a second floor requires three to six months from planning to completion. The process begins with several weeks of design and engineering, followed by permit applications, which vary in processing time by location.
Construction itself spans several months, including framing, systems installation, and finishing work. Weather conditions, contractor availability, and inspection schedules can all influence your project timeline.
Several factors could make your conversion challenging or impossible. Inadequate roof support structures, insufficient foundation capacity, or problematic truss configurations might require prohibitively expensive modifications.
Some homes lack the minimum ceiling height (12 feet at the lowest point) needed for functional second-floor spaces. Building code restrictions in your area might also limit conversion possibilities, particularly in historic districts or homes with specific architectural designations.
Begin with professional assessments from both an architect and a structural engineer who will evaluate your home's specific characteristics. They'll examine existing framing, measure available headroom, assess load-bearing capacity, and identify potential obstacles like HVAC ducts or plumbing vents.
These experts will also review local building codes to determine feasibility. Their preliminary analysis provides crucial information about structural requirements and potential limitations before you commit to the project.
Whether you'll need temporary housing depends on several factors, including the project's scope and your tolerance for construction disruption. Major structural work creates significant noise, dust, and potential utility interruptions that many families find challenging to live with. Safety concerns may also arise during certain construction phases.
Some homeowners successfully remain by isolating the construction zone and establishing clear work schedules. Discuss living arrangements with your contractor early in the planning process to make informed decisions.
