My goal is to help you find solutions that creates the "wow effect" for your projects, by learning about you, your needs, and design issues to transform your vision into the space. I provide new inspiration and ideas, while incorporating elements of your liking into every concept. The smallest details can make a real impact when it comes to designing a space, but only a true professional knows how to bring these details together to create a seamless design. I was trained as an interior architect and have experience with clients in the private and public sectors in Southern California. I offer each of my clients unique and innovative solutions to their design needs. From initial concept to installation, I'll take care of everything, and you are more than welcome to get involved as much as you wish to!

"My experience with this family owned business was beyond amazing. The 22 years old carpet in my two story, furniture filled, house was in desperate need of replacement. I had put it off as long as I could. From the moment I walked into their showroom, Kim and her son Evan, assured me they were up to the task. Yes, I would need to do some pre-prep, move small items, including Televisions and other Electronics, empty the Hutch, Curio Cabinets, Credenza, Closets etc. but their installers would handle the heavy stuff. The professional, efficient, friendly installers arrived at 7:45 AM. They looked at the situation and announced that the scheduled two day job could be completed in one day! It was like Carpet Ninjas had arrived. The three man crew swooped in and moved all the furniture, removed the old carpet, installed 200 square yards of beautiful new carpet and moved the furniture back, all by 5:45. I am thrilled beyond words, with my new carpet. This was an awesome experience. You can trust this company to exceed your expectations."

Burris Plumbing Inc. was established in San Diego by Charles "Bud" Burris in 1973. Our company has been family owned and operated for almost 40 years and is now controlled by family partners Charles "Charlie" Burris Jr and Mark Burris. Our main goal has always been to continue on with Buds complete dedication to providing a quality of work far above normal expectations. We treat building million dollar custom homes with the same care and expertise as a simple home repair or drain cleaning. We are always up front with our prices and they are always reasonable and more than competitive. We currently have a staff dedicated to being on time and working efficiently, being clean and respectful, and most importantly, honest! Bud wouldn't have it any other way. Usually Charlie Jr. and Mark (owners) are actually doing the work, but if they are unable to be there, you will always meet or talk to them before a job begins just to ensure the plan and price are to your liking. Just ask around, our reputation speaks for itself. We never let our expertise go to waste by never selecting jobs only based on size. We are not limited to anything, but some of our areas of focus are custom homes and remodels, and smaller projects such as drain cleaning and unclogging, water heater repair and replacement, toilet repairs and replacements, kitchen faucet replacements, garbage disposal repair and replacements, bathroom faucet replacements, shower valve and fixture replacements, complete home re-pipes, and gas leak repairs.

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Cardiff By The Sea, CA

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.
