Our company had it’s beginning January 1st of 2000 in Cincinnati, Ohio. We’ve completed countless residential projects since then, from many different suburbs along with the rebirth of the historic downtown area of Over the Rhine. We can include projects from Lebanon, Mason, Loveland, Indian Hill, Westchester, Montgomery, Oakley, Hyde Park, Mt. Lookout, Maderia, Milford, and others. Even down into Northern, Kentucky. Our hard work ethics and extreme attention to detail are just a few things that have made this company successful. We can’t forget too, our customer service is second to none! This sets us apart from the competition, and sets our customer’s minds at ease throughout all phases of their projects. We are ready to earn your business!

"Hogeland Construction was the best company that we worked with during the entire build. We began the build right when Covid hit. There were delays upon delays that were out of our locus of control due to Covid restrictions. These delays included in permiting, inspections, availability of materials etc. Covid turn everything upside down. However, Bryan Hogeland was able to adapt to the obstacles and never compromised on the quality of his work. We were impressed by his ability to pivot at a moment's notice to the unpredicted challenges the arose. Bryan's greatest characteristic is his thorough communication. He would even call at night in the middle of a torrential rain storm to make sure that there were no leaks. We can say that I really believed that he was as invested in this project as we were. It was a true partnership."

We are a small contracting company that offers big results. We do have several reliable subcontractors to perform duties that we do not do in the scope of a project.

"Bob and his guys were outstanding. Bob was patient with changes, new ideas, and was a great partner to work with throughout the project. I would (and still do) call him for anything - I trust Bob with all aspects of our home and it's future needs. Bob and his crew are worth their weight in GOLD!"

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Guilford, IN

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.
