"Roomsmith displayed a complete lack of professionalism throughout the entire project, from poor communication and constant delays to shoddy workmanship and a blatant disregard for trash left on our property. They failed to return calls/texts promptly and sometimes we didn’t hear back from them for weeks. We experienced frequent delays, ignored concerns, and not taking responsibility for issues like ordering the wrong window (and their professed ability to obtain this exact window is one of the reasons we chose them). They also completely overlooked part of our project (a small closet turned into a pantry) by not ordering any shelves even after the cabinet company told them multiple times that they never measured for them. They overlooked details like the floor transition not being flush and part of our old door frame wall is still there and shouldn’t be. Our project didn’t seem like a priority, more like an afterthought that they didn’t care about. They did not adhere to project timel"

FAQs for addition to existing structure building service projects in Lake Elmo, MN
Yes, hidden rooms are legal, as long as they meet all local building regulations. If you sell your house, most states require homeowners to disclose full houseplans, which would include any hidden rooms.
If your secret room is a safe room, it should contain a means of communication aside from a cell phone, such as a shortwave radio. You should also have plenty of drinking water, a portable generator, emergency food supplies, blankets, pillows, flashlights, batteries and a first aid kit.
Any time you update your home’s square footage, you increase its value, but a secret room is a niche feature that doesn't rank high on every buyer’s list of must-haves. Investing your money in remodeling more common living areas like bedrooms, bathrooms, or kitchens will have a higher ROI than adding a secret room. Many secret rooms can act as entertainment spaces (think a game room or wine cellar) or quiet spaces (a library or study), so when building your secret room you may want to consider its versatility for when you’re ready to sell.
