Your happiness is my #1 priority. Small local construction company started January 2017. I have over 20 yrs of experience in anything to do with homes. I am a firm believer that no job is to small because it is about building relationships. If you need a faucet replaced, drain clogged, toilet replaced, bathroom, kitchen or basement renovations, we are here to help with whatever you need. References upon request.

"We hired Adrian and his team for a much-needed facelift of our front porch, and we couldn't be happier with the results. The entire process, from start to finish, demonstrated a truly meticulous approach to their craft across both projects. Adrian's team skillfully handled every aspect of the porch renovation. They successfully reserviced the floor, installed beautiful new molding, and applied fresh paint all around, which has completely transformed the curb appeal of our home. The quality of the finish on all elements is impeccable and clearly shows their high standards. In addition to the porch, Adrian also installed new windows in our basement area. This was a critical job that involved removing old rotted wood, carefully weather sealing the entire opening, and installing the necessary exterior capping. This detailed work ensures the windows are perfectly watertight, energy-efficient, and aesthetically pleasing from the exterior. What truly set Adrian and his team apart was their incredible professionalism and attention to the small details. Each day, they ensured the entire work area was left absolutely spotless, showing immense respect for our property and minimizing any disruption. We highly recommend Adrian for any home improvement project. Their dedication to quality, cleanliness, and exceptional results is outstanding."

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Linden, NJ

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.
