"Dee is fantastic! We loved the design Mike came up with for our backyard makeover. Then once construction started we realized we had made choices that needed to be changed. In every case Dee's suggestions (stucco the walls instead of paint, don't use DG next to the pool, run wood fence topper horizontally) turned out to the best. We are so glad we listened to him. Our finished backyard looks like an art installation but one where you can feel comfortable and at home. Now a year later we had them come back for a few tweaks and again Dee's suggestions were the right ones. We are happy we choose G & L and plan to use them again next year when we tackle our front yard."

"Stuff happens, and this business knows how to handle it! We had a stain on the ceiling. Ofri from BTB came over and turned on the water from the upstairs bathtub and then the shower stall. The ceiling became moist after the shower was turned on. Ofri then came back with a plumber. He turned on the upstairs bathtub. After they left, water dripped from the ceiling. Ofri had the plumber immediately send over a team for a service call. They broke open a hole in the ceiling and found that a pipe leading to the bathtub was so rusty it had holes. They took videos showing other pipes leading to the bathtub were also very rusty. While the team was still there, Ofri gave us prices, sent over the paperwork and the pipes were replaced within a of couple hours. Fabulous! Ofri had thought it would take a lot longer to complete the plumbing work. Therefore, her pricing did not align with the actual work performed. She brought in Alon, who substantially reduced the price to our satisfaction. Their responsiveness and reasonableness earned them my highest rating. Thank you Ofri, Alon and the BTB team!"

We embrace the uniqueness of each development and we call our projects complete when each of your needs and wants are fulfilled.

"5++ stars! My home's exterior was cracking due to a poor job prior and drainage issues. Tom and Adam and the team not only gave me peace of mind moving forward with drainage, put in gutters, and re-did the entire exterior of my home (stained wood and stucco), but made it beyond beautiful!! They were communicative, timely, so easy to work with, and the end product is gorgeous. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a construction project done and can't wait to use them again on my next project!!"

"I tend to be a bit particular, especially when it comes to my home, so I was nervous going into a bathroom remodel. But 1 Degree Construction exceeded every expectation. Thai was extremely professional and easy to work with — he kept us in the loop daily, sent progress photos when we weren’t home, and made sure every single detail was just right. I loved that their pricing was clear and competitive from the start, with no surprise add-ons. The end result is stunning — clean, modern, and functional. I actually enjoy getting ready in the morning now. Can’t say that before."

Monroy's Father & Son Restoration is a Local Company with Over 15 Years of Experience in the Restoration Industry When disaster strikes your Los Angeles property, you need a team that you can trust to handle the situation with care and efficiency. Monroy’s Father & Son Restoration is a top-rated restoration company that has been serving our community for years. We are not a national chain or franchise but a local business that truly cares about our customers and their properties. Our name has become synonymous with excellent customer service, attention to detail, and top-quality workmanship. You can expect nothing less from our dedicated and experienced team. Unlike other restoration companies, we prioritize service over profits. We are passionate about helping you recover from any type of property damage, whether it be from water, fire, mold, or other man-made and natural disasters.

"Monroy's was great! The wood floors throughout our entire home were flooded and had to be torn up, along with portions of our walls which were wet as well. Because we were dealing with potential mold growth, as well as lead and asbestos in the building materials because it is an older home, we were very nervous about making sure the job was done right. We had initially started to contract with two other companies, then had to back out because we did trust them to do the job right and/or try to charge us more money than we agreed upon. Daniel and his dad were always available to answer our questions, were upfront about all of the pricing and presented us with different options. They kept everything around our home clean and tidy, despite the fact that it was a large demolition project. Literally no complaints about the process. And most importantly we feel confident that it is a safe home to live in and there will be no ongoing issues with mold, lead, or asbestos. Monroy's Father and Son Restoration are who I would refer any friends or family to. Can't speak highly enough of them."

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.
