"Sam Rosario Construction is NOT licensed, he's NOT insured, he is NOT an insurance expert and he doesn't offer any warranties. His contract doesn't meet Mass Law requirements. His crew is paid in cash and they aren't protected by Workman's Comp. Check for yourself at madpl.mylicense(dot)com/Verification/Search.aspx All you really need is his name, the following categories and "MA" to see that he is not licensed. "Builders License" "Construction Supervisor""

"I emphatically urge you to avoid Richard Kumpel (RBK Enterprises). My partner and I hired Richard for a gut-reno of our home. We are currently in the process of taking Richard to court. He disappeared several months ago, with work still incomplete and with over $20,000 of our money, which we had pre-paid him for that work. We have also discovered that Richard violated code in several instances and we are in the process of filling a complaint with the Massachusetts Department of Public Safety against his contractor license."

There are many things that set my company apart from the rest, but the one that stands out from the rest, is price! Allot of Contractors charge according to location. My company don't work that way, I only charge according to the job at hand.\n I never throw in hidden fees, the quote I give you stands as is.

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Needham, MA

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.
