Bring imagination to realization with a touch of orientation. We are a family owned and operated business that believes quality bring quantity and value to the business.
"I found Jacob and Eric Gottberg through your agency. They told me they were licensed plumbers. I paid them $1500 to replace pipes under my house and get my water running and toilet flushing. I've had an electrician come to rewire the house and he said there was a leak. I called Jacob and Eric and was told I had to give a fee for them to look at it. Today the pipe they replaced under the sink burst. It had been leaking this entire time. Now I have to replace the floor under the sink and have it fixed again. Will never recommend this company."

"RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!! Helitech built a 20' wall/foundation with a 1" inward bow in the wall. Temporary support structure that was to be put in place to support our home during demolition and construction were never used. Suppots structures of a temporary nature put in by the homeowner were used without any engineering certification. Support structures that were put into place as part of the contract. Were impropery engineered. Some were left not even touching the floor joist at all. Some supports only carried a portion of the area that were meant to be supported. Leveling of the floors as per the contract was never attempted. Electrical work was preformed by unskilled workers. An electrical junction box for a generator tie into the home. Was removed from the work area and never replaced. Request to address the concerns in detail were never satisfied. The foundation built out of tolerance. When asked to be reconstructed were ignored. Denial of patching the out of spec foundation have been denied by the consumer. We did not pay for a patch job. All questions pertaining to the concerns of how that work was done so poorly have been ignored. Supervision of the crew working on the project was not done.

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.
