"Don’t use Triple A Air Conditioning & Construction! Also AAA Construction same company Zee Armand (AKA Zahid Hussain) of Triple A Air Conditioning & Construction took our deposit didn’t do the work and left the siding off our house! We found Zee Armand (AKA Zahid Hussain) on Porch.com and asked him to give us an estimate on removing some dry rot, replacing a shower in our guest bathroom and installing some sheet vinyl in both the guest and master bathrooms. The estimate for the shower seemed reasonable, but for the flooring he was charging over $20 per square foot and we had already purchased the flooring ourselves. From Home Advisor: Installing sheet vinyl costs around $3/sf. Installing luxury vinyl tiles (LVT) or planks (LVP) costs considerably more, hovering at $7 per sq. ft.. Zee was the third contractor we had out to look at the bathroom and so by that point we were stressed and frustrated and after negotiating the flooring price down, we still decided to use his services and paid him a 10% deposit of $500. He was then supposed to come over the next day with his helper to look at the job and determine the tools they would need. He cancelled due to rain and said he would start on Monday instead. He arrived on Monday with his helper, took off a couple pieces of the siding of our house to expose the dry rot and told us that he was going to Home Depot to get supplies and update the estimate. He said he would be back in the afternoon and around 2:00 he still wasn’t back yet, so we contacted him to find out what was going on. At that point he proceeded to tell us that because of the little bit of mold that was there, that if a mold remediation team came out to remove it would cost us over $5000, but that he could do it for $1550. At that point we cancelled the job and demanded that he return our deposit. Long story short, he never gave us our $500 deposit back. Upon further investigation it was found that he has had numerous small claims judgments against him. He is also operating without a Home Improvement certification and isn’t certified to remove mold!"

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Running Springs, CA

Converting a vaulted ceiling into a second floor requires three to six months from planning to completion. The process begins with several weeks of design and engineering, followed by permit applications, which vary in processing time by location. 

Construction itself spans several months, including framing, systems installation, and finishing work. Weather conditions, contractor availability, and inspection schedules can all influence your project timeline.

Several factors could make your conversion challenging or impossible. Inadequate roof support structures, insufficient foundation capacity, or problematic truss configurations might require prohibitively expensive modifications. 

Some homes lack the minimum ceiling height (12 feet at the lowest point) needed for functional second-floor spaces. Building code restrictions in your area might also limit conversion possibilities, particularly in historic districts or homes with specific architectural designations.

Begin with professional assessments from both an architect and a structural engineer who will evaluate your home's specific characteristics. They'll examine existing framing, measure available headroom, assess load-bearing capacity, and identify potential obstacles like HVAC ducts or plumbing vents. 

These experts will also review local building codes to determine feasibility. Their preliminary analysis provides crucial information about structural requirements and potential limitations before you commit to the project.

Whether you'll need temporary housing depends on several factors, including the project's scope and your tolerance for construction disruption. Major structural work creates significant noise, dust, and potential utility interruptions that many families find challenging to live with. Safety concerns may also arise during certain construction phases. 

Some homeowners successfully remain by isolating the construction zone and establishing clear work schedules. Discuss living arrangements with your contractor early in the planning process to make informed decisions.
