"I would highly recommend Art as a contractor for any job in your home. He refinished our basement to a new living space which included a full bath. Art works hard at ensure the job is getting done correctly and to the expectations of the homeowner. We were in communication throughout the entirety of the project which made it easy to adjust or change plans as needed. One thing that impressed me was halfway through the project we sat down, took out the original quote he gave us, and we went through it together. He identified what was already paid for and what remained and wanted to make sure we were staying as close to budget as possible. Jobs can sometimes get out of hand, but Art wants to make sure that does not happen. Aside from good communication, being professional, and staying on budget, Arts work is beautiful. We love our basement. Its the nicest area in the house."

"We were extremely pleased with the entire process. Matt is professional, organized and a superior craftsman. His crew was the same. Remodeling is loud and messy - there's no way around that - but Matt and his crew were always respectful, pleasant, and cleaned up each day. Their work is exceptional. Matt plans well and always kept us informed of what to expect next and when. Planning for deliveries (like cabinetry) with COVID was tricky, but we were well informed of any challenges and we could plan our lives around it. Older houses always come with surprises, but Matt was always patient to explain things and then give us options so we could make informed decisions. We got exactly what we wanted - but were pleasantly surprised at how smooth things were handled and ecstatic at how beautiful the results are. His attention to the smallest details sent it above and beyond our expectations. We would recommend Matt and his crew to anyone and would use him again most definitely."

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.
