After your project has been completed we offer complete maintenance services to protect your investment.
"This is our 2nd time in a couple years we chose Plymouth Nursery and Landscaping for our contractor. They did our porch and walkway a couple years back and we were so impressed with the workmanship and the outcome of that project that when we decided to do our back patio I never considered another contractor. I called John and he came by to estimate the job and added a few ideas. His estimate came inline to what I expected. He worked with us throughout the project. These guys are very detailed and knowledgeable when it comes to stone work. Our home is an older stone house and they matched the stone perfectly. We had a 16’x22’ flagstone patio installed along with a walkway and three stone walls. It was a sizable project. His workers were amazing and very easy to work with. I cannot begin to tell you how many compliments we have received from our neighbors. We are extremely happy with the way it turned out. I will say these pictures don’t even begin to show how amazing this project turned out."

"Wow! Wow! Wow! Nick and his crew just finished an EP Henry hardscaping project in my courtyard. He transformed my courtyard into a beautiful and inviting place to relax, entertain, and enjoy! His crew arrived early every morning and worked a long and hard day. They were respectful, talented, and responsive! Nick stopped in several times each day to check on the progress. Nick kept me informed every step of the way, great communication! I found it easy to talk to Nick and he was always receptive. Although the project was supposed to take 8 days to finish, they finished it in 4 days! That was an unexpected and wonderful surprise! At the end of each day, the crew cleaned up the courtyard nicely. At the end of the project, they made sure that all of the construction materials were gathered, the lawn around the house was repaired from their wheel barrels, any trash was picked up, and the driveway was swept and blown. My only regret is that I don’t have another project for Nick and his crew to complete for me! I would hire D'Antonio Landscaping again without any hesitation!"

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.
