Remodeling business locally owned and operated we feel invested in our clients and constantly strive for customer satisfaction. Call or message us to schedule an estimate today!

"I was initially hesitant to hire this company through Angi's List due to their lack of reviews. However, after speaking with Arben, my concerns were quickly alleviated. He was incredibly responsive and offered to come to my home for a consultation to better understand the scope of my bathroom renovation project. Arben provided a detailed quote the very next day and his team completed the entire project in just 3 days! Not only were they efficient, but they were also extremely professional and meticulous. They cleaned up the work area at the end of each day, which I really appreciated. The quality of their work was so impressive that I decided to hire them for additional projects around my house, and they consistently exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Arben and his team to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and professional contractors. I look forward to working with them again in the future!"

We are your go to general contracting specialist. Here to help you with any remodeling, painting, framing, drywall, decking needs and more you may have.

"I hired Batusha Corp for a garage project. They were one of many companies that I requested quotes. Vigan, the owner, came and reviewed the job with me. Unlike a few of the others, he listened to what I was asking to have done. He offered some good suggestions to resolve some issues, and did not pressure me in any way. Extremely professional. Though his price was a bit higher than some others that quoted the job, there were others that quoted higher. However, it was clear that he knew what the job would cost and charged fairly for it. I avoid those that lowball price, only to jack it up after work has started. I also avoid those who give an unreasonably high price because it shows they don't understand the job well enough. We discussed his process and deadlines. I like the fact that he also works on the projects and oversees his employees. I also like the fact that he doesn't over extend himself with too many jobs at once. This showed very clearly in the high quality of the work, attention to details, and completion within the time promised. During the work, unrelated plumbing issues occurred which Vigan brought to my attention. These issues would have delayed the project, but Vigan offered to bring in his trusted plumber, who quickly resolved the issues allowing the rest of the work to proceed on schedule. There was an additional project that I wanted to do, but couldn't afford it at the time. Vigan worked with me to get that project done and to pay him the next month. I have finally found an honest, high quality, professional contractor who I will hire again for all my home construction projects! Thank you, Vigan!"

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.
