"Jim Tripp and the team at Express Sunrooms did a wonderful job on my patio cover. I wanted something that would provide some shade from the sun which sets over the fence in my backyard and heats my living room and kitchen up a ton in the summer. They came out, worked with me to get HOA approval, and then did a wonderful job installing it. I was very impressed at how clean they left my backyard and at the quality of the work. I also thought the price was more than reasonable. I had other quotes that were way out there and Express Sunrooms worked with me to get this within my budget and were honest and upfront with me the entire way. Highly highly recommend this team!"

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.
