"When I called Rich Daugherty at System Pavers a few weeks ago with a very unusual issue, he sent Harley Waycasy over immediately. Harley assisted in saving my artificial grass from being damaged by a possible action of DWP. Everything has been worked out over time. Harley kept checking in to see what was happening. He returned when appropriate and reinstalled my artificial grass. It looks beautiful. I would have been lost without these two individuals. Much thanks to System Pavers, Rich and Harley. Great job!"

Concrete pouring, curbs & gutters, sidewalks, driveways, patios, residential foundations, retaining walls, grinding & cutting.

"Practically begged this contractor to do my job, kept getting put off. Finally got him to show up for an estimate. A week later, when I still hadn't received the estimate, I had to call and follow up. We agreed on a price. The day he was to start, he showed up (late) and wanted over 50% of the estimate. I pointed out that the State Contractor's Licensing Board allows up to 10% of the job. Things went downhill after that. He became very confused about the job itself (though we'd been over it twice) and said he would return the following day. He never did and that was fine with me, but a colossal waste of my time. I encourage you to not waste yours and call another contractor."

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.
