Family owned and operated, we perform. With over 20 years of experience we know what it takes to make you happy. We are local in Chesterfield and our top priority is a satisfied customer.

"I had a horrible experience with Maris. Shoddy workmanship, terrible customer service, and zero follow up. I was assured by their salesman Dylan that they did not use contractors and only used employees – which is why I chose them – and this was a false claim used to get my business. Not one window was done correctly by the contractors. If you want windows installed with caulking that appears like a five-year-old did it, go ahead and hire Maris. You will need to clean up daily upon their departure as they don’t lay tarps down to catch debris or vacuum their mess. Two windows were ordered incorrectly, then one of these windows arrived broken, and had to be re-ordered for a third time. Additionally, windowsills that were ordered and part of the contract were not installed, which then meant they had to do them over and jam the windows out and back in again which created scratches and black marks on the windows. I still have window foam that is visible at the front of my house which looks tacky. It’s been 15 months, and these problems have not been corrected to my satisfaction, and there was no efforts made to make this right despite claims by their owner Ken that he was going to “create a win-win situation” on March 21. I haven’t heard from him since."

Hard work has produced a reputation whereby our customers are assured of quality remodeling and repairs that are completed with attention to detail by polite and courteous professional people. Our company pays competitive wages and benefits. We invest time and money in training employees to make them as good as they can be. You will find that our prices are competitive for the quality work that we do. Please call us for all of your remodeling needs.

"This is the second time we’ve hired GA Chott during the past 15 years. We hired Darryll and Angie and team to build out a bathroom from scratch (no plumbing) in our upstairs attic space, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The quality of the work is unsurpassed. We had an inspector ask us about who did the work so that he could contact them for a job in his own home. The quality and attention to detail were incredible. James is purely a rockstar – he works quietly (considering it included demo and the like), cleanly and respectfully. He kept us in the know along the way and really brought the details together. He was always available when we had questions and did quality work from top to bottom. Most of all, James really treated our home as though it was his own. The coordination of the project (which included several required inspections) was all handled by Angie and team. She is a great communicator, and that can’t be overlooked in a project of this scale. Again, she was always available for any questions we may have, and made it feel like we were their only clients. Darryll helped us navigate decisions and brought the full plan together. When we encountered a couple of small issues, he was quick to address and correct them, and assured that things were properly handled. This was a large, 8-week project. We did our homework and acquired several bids. GA Chott wasn’t the cheapest (or the most expensive), but they were clearly the best choice. We give our highest recommendation. You’ll be pleased with both the quality of the work and how it’s handled throughout the process."

Second story addition building services FAQs

For many homeowners, building up is worth the expense because it provides the extra bedrooms or living areas that can’t be accommodated within the existing footprint. A larger, updated home often commands a higher resale price, recouping a sizable share of the project cost while allowing you to stay in the neighborhood you love. Run the numbers with a real estate agent and contractor to ensure the expected return and day-to-day benefits align with your goals.

Whether it makes more sense to build up or out depends on your lot, budget, and local code. Building up preserves yard space and involves less foundation work, but you may need to vacate the home during construction. Building out avoids staircases and can proceed while you stay put; however, it encroaches on the yard and may face setback limits. Compare both options with your contractor before making a decision.

A structural engineer will first inspect the existing foundation for cracks, footings, and load capacity. Depending on the findings, the crew may pour new concrete footings, install steel or concrete piers, add reinforced beams, or tie additional rebar into the slab. These upgrades redistribute the weight of the new floor and bring the structure up to code. Your contractor will outline the specific reinforcement plan and timeline once the engineering report is complete.
