Mayanda Home Improvement, Inc. is a licensed and insured family company in the heart of Brooklyn, New York. Since 2002 we have worked serving New York City & surroundings, with vast experience in interior renovation in houses, offices, and commercial businesses. Commitment to excellence motivates us, and we invest the effort and knowledge to obtain our client's satisfaction and happiness. With years of experience in the construction field, we would make Mayanda's difference by helping you with all the advisory processes. The Mayanda difference is the ability to deliver more than just the four walls of any space; it's the ability to give attention to the temperature, the acoustics, the lighting, and the fine finish. The ability to take your design to convert any space into an elegant, cozy, or entertaining area. The Mayanda difference is the ability to coordinate the builder trades because the functionality of any space starts before any wall is built. Having resources in all areas provides proficiency in the following services: Crown molding and molding design, faux and textured finishes, plumbing and HVAC, electrical and lighting, masonry and paving.

"The finished product was high quality. The team was a pleasure to work with- great customer service. They always arrived on time and finished the work quickly."

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in New-York, NY

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.
