"12-11-20 I fell in love with the Camden! There is a requirement in the covenants that a certain percentage of homes in the neighborhood were full brick 12-17-20 I signed a contract 12-19-20 Builder asked to raise the price and he would pay closing. Donâ  t have money said no. 12-26-20 I attended a preconstruction meeting. I signed the plans for approval. I asked if it would fit onthe lot, because there is a drain on one side of it. I also asked if the house would have be be flipped (garage on left instead of right). He said no 1-14-21 I was informed that the house would not fit on the original lot, and that it would have to be moved. I signed an addendum to move the house to another lot. 1-22-21 The gravel was delivered. It was delivered to the wrong side of the house for the driveway (I thought it was wrong, but later found out that he flipped the house without asking me, even though he said he wouldnâ  t do that). 2-22-21 I finally found out that they were waiting on windows to be delivered. The windows were ordered on 1/ 4 and they wanted to wait until windows got here to start framing. 2-26 Still nothing Sometime in February-I found out they let a permit expire but would have it soon 3-4-21 dropped off boards 3-16-21 Builder advertised on his FB page that he was selling his house.He had been building his own house during this time. 3-19-21 They used the boards for the outline of the house. That was when I saw that the house had been flipped. No one told me or my agent. 4-8-21 still nothing. 4-12-21 I wrote a desperate letter to the builder asking about him starting asap because my children have been homeless, my senior has missed the last half of her senior year, and it is costing a fortune in gas and hotel bills to try to get them to school. 5-4-21 (closing date!) still nothing. I signed an extension, but did not hear anything. I never got a response from my letter. 5-7-21 The builder sent an email to my agent saying he is ready to build and has permits (finally), and it will now cost $20,000 more dollars for the house since the price of lumbar has gone up.one might think a professional builder would know months earlier that he would need to raise the price to cover the lumber prices .He waited until after the contract expired to ask for more money .I did not have that much money. I had to tell my children, who have now been homeless for 6 months, that we do not have a house and have to start over. 1-3-22 I drove by the house I was SHOCKED to find out that the house that was built was NOT all brick .I had been told that was not an option, and it was going to cost me $9200 more just for that!! I was told the covenants required While what builder did may have been legal, morally is another question."

Major home repairs (general contractor) FAQs
The timeline for raising a sunken living room varies depending on your specific project. Factors affecting the schedule include the size of the area, the complexity of the work, and whether you're installing new flooring throughout adjacent rooms. Your contractor will need to remove existing flooring, build up the sunken area, allow time for materials to set properly, and then install finished flooring. Be sure to discuss the expected timeline with your contractor during the planning phase.
Raising a sunken living room is a significant structural modification that should be done with proper engineering considerations. When performed correctly by qualified professionals, the project shouldn't negatively impact your home's structural integrity. However, improper installation could lead to issues like uneven floors or inadequate support. This is why hiring an experienced and licensed home remodeling contractor who understands the structural requirements and building codes for such modifications is recommended.
Yes, contractors can raise sunken living rooms with concrete slab foundations. The process involves pouring new concrete to fill the depression or building a wood-framed floor system over the existing slab. For a 400-square-foot room with a six-inch depression, filling with concrete would cost approximately $2,400 before adding finished flooring. The approach your contractor recommends will depend on your specific situation, including the height differential and your preferred finished floor type.
When raising a sunken living room, you'll need to consider how the new flooring will transition to adjacent areas. Your options include extending the new flooring throughout connected spaces for a seamless look, using transition strips between different flooring types, or selecting complementary materials that create an intentional design feature. Discuss these options with your flooring professional to determine the best approach for your home's specific layout and your aesthetic preferences.
