"Working with PDR has been nothing short of harrowing. For the better part of a year we have had to be our own project manager for our kitchen and living room remodel. Our actual assigned project manager, Cole Vagovich, did 3 site visits for the duration of the project despite several quality issues that came up. The electrical work done in August 2022 was underpowered so in October 2022, they had to return and rewire by cutting into my finished basement ceiling. The repairs have been unfinished going on 6 months. And my lights still flicker. We also had to have the backsplash PDR installed torn out and redone due to several quality issues. Cole Vagovich told me that we were legally obligated to have the tile installer return to try and fix his work. We consulted two attorneys that confirmed this was NOT a law and we are not legally obligated to have the same installer return to fix the tile. In the end, PDR gave us a $3500 credit to have it torn out and reinstalled by another company. It turned out beautifully. However, the demo crew removed the frame around the window so they could tile there, and discovered the inside frame was just resting, unsecured in the opening. This just scratches the surface of the issues we faced with PDR."

"It wasn't timely. He hires cheap labor that does everything but isnt good at anything. The framers were hacks using broken lumber in spots. Sheetrock cracked and needed repair ( which they did) the new shower was installed without specialized mounting clips and the flange on shower walls were cracked. The shower door did not function and when I went to fix it, the hanging hardware fell off. New flooring throughout the house including the new addition. The new addition subfloor wasn't screwed correctly which resulted in a reinstall. In the old part of the house, the subfloor was not prepped properly causing the vinyl plank to bow and crack. Jim refused to fix. Jim's crew forgot to put a vent on roof so water came into house and collapsed the bathroom ceiling. ( He did take responsibility and fix that) overall very disappointed with someone that claims to do quality work. If I could rate lowerI would."

Second story addition building services FAQs

Converting a vaulted ceiling into a second floor requires three to six months from planning to completion. The process begins with several weeks of design and engineering, followed by permit applications, which vary in processing time by location. 

Construction itself spans several months, including framing, systems installation, and finishing work. Weather conditions, contractor availability, and inspection schedules can all influence your project timeline.

Several factors could make your conversion challenging or impossible. Inadequate roof support structures, insufficient foundation capacity, or problematic truss configurations might require prohibitively expensive modifications. 

Some homes lack the minimum ceiling height (12 feet at the lowest point) needed for functional second-floor spaces. Building code restrictions in your area might also limit conversion possibilities, particularly in historic districts or homes with specific architectural designations.

Begin with professional assessments from both an architect and a structural engineer who will evaluate your home's specific characteristics. They'll examine existing framing, measure available headroom, assess load-bearing capacity, and identify potential obstacles like HVAC ducts or plumbing vents. 

These experts will also review local building codes to determine feasibility. Their preliminary analysis provides crucial information about structural requirements and potential limitations before you commit to the project.

Whether you'll need temporary housing depends on several factors, including the project's scope and your tolerance for construction disruption. Major structural work creates significant noise, dust, and potential utility interruptions that many families find challenging to live with. Safety concerns may also arise during certain construction phases. 

Some homeowners successfully remain by isolating the construction zone and establishing clear work schedules. Discuss living arrangements with your contractor early in the planning process to make informed decisions.
