"Sam did a great job with deck. In addition to the specifications required fo composit deck installation, he added more than required joists speculations to ensure the deck likely remain problem free. He also was able to anchor my propane grill and table without risk to the deck as these articles get thrown around in windy and stormy weather. He provided a generous warranty. I enthusiastically recommended his work."

My business is a small business with only myself, the owner, and generally one or two helpers unless the job calls for more. Most of the work we do is done by us that way we can control the quality better. We will occasionally use a sub contractor for specialized trades, but we use the same trusted businesses every time! We do not accept credit cards at this time but checks or cash is fine. We are not doing any financing at this time so we take deposits when work starts and generally whatever is left is do at completion of project.
"Paul went above and beyond to help me out and did a great job on our porch. I had an issue with a previous contractor and he reassured me everything would get done. Just 2 days and it looks great! Thanks Paul! If anyone is looking for a reliable contractor i highly recommend Paul Baucco Construction."

As a leading general contractor in Lake and Ashtabula Counties, OH, we've built a reputation for quality work, friendly service, and competitive pricing.
"They were hired to replace a tub, fixtures, and put in tile surrounding the tub with a niche and 2 shelves. We also had them re route a vent pipe in a separate bathroom so that it is past the trap and not letting sewer gases into the home. We were given options for materials based on our budget and guided on who to meet with at the appropriate store to select our materials. The work was done within the timeframe we gave. They did an excellent job making the space beautiful and professionally done. They respected our home and cleaned up better than expected each day. Of course, there were unexpected issues that arose that were dealt with without concern such as having to shore up not plumb walls. The price wasn’t cheap but was reasonable. In all, they did an excellent job."

"We were faced with a difficult project at our home. The retaining wall that bordered our walk out basement needed replacement. It was originally built with railroad ties 29 years ago. The ties were rotting, splintering and beginning to lean inward. To further complicate the situation, our deck was adjacent to the wall and essentially one story higher. A few contractors looked at the situation. One failed to get back to us at all. It was no doubt his way of saying that the project was too difficult and unpredictable. Jose Gutierrez accessed the situation knew exactly what needed to be done. He further understood the need to fortify the deck posts to prevent a disaster. This was an expensive project. GTZL wasn't the lowest bid. It was clear that Jose fully understood the scope of the project and was enthusiastic about taking on the challenge. He laid out his plan to secure the deck and provide the critically needed drainage necessary for the wall to survive. He made several promises concerning how they would proceed and outcomes we could expect, and he followed through on all of them. The end result was a beautifully constructed wall of interlocking solid stones. A drainage system was carefully constructed around the wall and a new central drain installed. GTZL did a wonderful job of restoring our yard, as the heavy equipment and supplies brought in for the project took a toll on the landscape. We appreciated that the crew was very respectful of our property throughout the construction process."

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.
