"Initial rep was great and informative. Felt comfortable with initial sale. Hardly had any contact from customer service except for the payments. There were several delays that we were not informed about unless we called to ask. Took 7 months before they showed up to begin project. Only 1 person was sent to build steps. Took a week. Hard worked, hardly took a break. Had to call again to see when they would come to pour patio. Never knew when they were coming, they just showed up. Hardly spoke with the homeowners. Inspection paperwork was just left on porch. Additional paperwork that is "required by the County" had to be completed by homeowner and taken to Court house to be notarized and filed and also provide a copy back to Long Fence. Time sensitive materials which added to homeowners to-do list. Gave this contract to LF on the surface of their history and appearance of a 'good local company' but should have stayed with original contactors in VA. Puddle of water forms when it rains"

Blase Skully, project supervisor and quality assurance manager, was always available to answer many questions and provide advice as we refined the scope of work and the project progressed. He made sure they delivered exactly what we were seeking to accomplish. Blase was also sensitive to ensuring that the historic look of the house was maintained and enhanced by the materials they used and the work they did. The result is beautiful. We get many complements on our new roof and gutters. We highly recommend American Custom Contractors."

"If I could give this company a zero I would. Completely disorganized, took months to complete my job with countless mistakes: (I requested the job in April, they started 4 months later, they incorrectly measured the fence area resulting in an incomplete fence for another month, recorded the permit for the fence on the wrong lot with county so had to have that reapproved and finally all the caps of the fence flew off after installation so I had to get a separate company to fix their work. Beware of Randy Fike with his unprofessionalism. Never again!!!"

"I met Dominic over twenty years ago. We had purchased a newly constructed home a few years prior. The end of our driveway was sinking and the builder failed to back its work. I contacted Dominic. He reviewed the condition and indicated that he could take care of it for us. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable, an excellent communicator, concise, professional & personable. Consequently, his team was extremely efficient. This work required excavation, new pavement. They did more than I expected, in less time than I expected and less costly than I expected. This winter we damaged the end of our driveway. I called Dominic. He inspected the driveway, provided a detailed scope of work to include repairs we identified and action which he explained would prevent future repair. I anticipated a Spring start date. He said, we’ll wait for a break in the weather, and take care of this for us. Again, they did more than I expected, in less time and less cost than I expected. As the work was completed in less than desirable weather conditions, he said he would check back in the Spring to ensure the quality met his standards. As promised, yesterday they reviewed a few superficial spots at the entrance of the drive but, true to his nature, he instructed his team to reseal the entire driveway. I am sure you will agree, finding this breadth of generational knowledge, quality, efficiency and trust is a very rare find these days. All that said; he’s just a pleasure to do business with! Apologies for rambling-on but, trust me; I could go on… :)"

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Lanham, MD

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.
