Hydrotech Pools, Inc. - Specialized and innovative approach to swimming pools Pools - Spas - Decks - Renovations - Consulting - Repairs All in house crews - Financing Available

"Hydrotech pools refinished our pool white pool to a light blue. Their site describes a first rate process and guarantees excellent results. We noticed immediately that the pool had very poor coverage as the old finish showed through in multiple areas. Photos were sent to Damian and he promised to come out and refinish appropriately. The attached photos show the very poor quality result. After stringing us along for more than a year, I have finally decided to post a review describing the poor quality job and the utter lack of customer service. We have been attempting to communicate with Damian regularly for more than a year and he has had ample opportunity to make the job right. The company claims to be a reputable company, however the treatment we have had from Damian at Hydrotech pools is very unprofessional and shameful."

"Hewitt’s Home Improvements did an amazing job with our renovation on Ft. Myers Beach. Eric’s attention to detail, professionalism and personal care in our project was extremely helpful. Their willingness to listen to what we wanted and give expert advice on what would make it even better was the best I have ever seen in any company. They were always available to answer questions and willing to accept changes all the way through the process. I could not believe how patient they were with us because we were new to a project like this. They made sure we felt comfortable with everything and took the time to explain all of the technical details. We would not have our beautiful new home if it weren’t for Hewitt’s!"

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Cape Coral, FL

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.
