2 EMPLOYEES. NO SUBS. COST IS DETERMINED BY THE JOB. NO TRAVEL CHARGES. NO SERVICE CHARGES. MAY CONTACT THROUGH EMAIL.

"Working on older homes, particularly those approaching 100 years, takes a special skill set. We found out the hard way that not all home painters and restoration “experts” know how to deal with an old one. Jeff and his team are amazing and easy to work with. Jeff is onsite doing the actual work every day which is a huge benefit. He is good at problem solving on the job and works really hard. An excellent painter, he takes on a project as though it was his own home. And he is completely honest and fair, which is rare. The exterior of our old house looks fabulous and we will have him back to attack the interior. We would highly recommend him."

Our business mission is to develop and implement dream kitchens and baths at the most affordable prices for highest quality material and services.We do that by having direct buying agreements with distributors and using agreements, instead of ownership, with showrooms, installers and remodelors to keep down overhead, This gives us a true pricing advantage to pass on to you. Hence, Design Resources.

"My experience with Liz was very poor. Early on she showed us a nice design and what we thought was a fair price. She represented herself as the designer and project manager. She brought in a GC that we were told she would manage. We gave Liz all of the specs for the appliances that we picked out. Once the renovations started we figured out very quickly that she did not factor in the specs on the appliances that we had ordered. On the install date of the appliances not one appliance could be installed because she did not have the space ready and to spec. She was not managing the contractors and she became very difficult to get to respond to questions or concerns. Thankfully the GC stepped up and took control of the situation. She also drew us a very nice built in refrigerator and wine fridge cabinet but what was installed was not what she had showed us. It was radically different. She refused to take responsibility for it so we released her and had to find another contractor to step in and finish it. Over all we had to pay much more than we expected, the project did not go smoothly at all, and we did not get the service or the result that we expected. This was not a small job, all in it was over $100K. I have never dealt with a less professional person."

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Decatur, GA

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.
