"Our experience with Cabinets Direct, and the salesman Frank at the Orange location, was very disappointing. We first met with Frank in late July, but our order wasn't actually placed until late August. When we asked about the delays in getting the cabinets ordered, Franks response was that new customers were coming in and he "couldn't turn down work" - at the expense of existing customers like us. We did not receive the last of our cabinets until mid-November, four months after initial contact. Since replacing cabinets was only one part of our renovation, this had a domino effect that resulted is us living in an unfinished house with no way to prepare food for weeks. Even after the cabinets finally came, there have been issues. Frank ordered the wrong color trim for the top of the cabinets, so it took another two weeks for replacement parts to arrive. Our microwave, which we gave him the dimensions of in advance, didn’t fit in the space provided, so we had to buy a different (smaller and less powerful) one. Finally, our dishwasher hits the handle over our stove when we open it all the way. In the interest of full disclosure, the national customer service reps for Cabinets Direct that we worked with after the order was in were very friendly and helpful during the long process. However, given the very high price-point for these cabinets, being told our order was being delayed so Frank could talk to new customers before finishing our order and thereby delaying our cabinets is unacceptable. Our entire renovation was significantly delayed as a result, and without a functioning kitchen we had no option other than to eat out for every meal, for weeks. We would not recommend this salesman, or company. We don’t expect the royal treatment, but these were expensive cabinets and we at least expected basic competence, and we did not get that."

"Carlos got back to me in a couple of days after I submitted my request and we scheduled an appointment for between 10 and 12 one morning. After he didn’t show up during that timeframe, I gave him a call. He then told me he got tied up with work and it wasn’t worth his time to come out for an estimate on such a small job. I explained that he could’ve told me it wasn’t worth his time upfront rather than scheduling an appointment and never showing up and having me waste a morning. I wouldn’t recommend doing business with Carlos."

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Shelton, CT

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.
