Landscape Design and Build Specialist Creating and Transforming Outdoor Spaces - Landscape Construction - Pavers and Retaining Walls - Walkways, Driveways, and Patios - Sprinkler systems - Outdoor Lighting - Artificial Turf - Boulders and Natural Stone

"We are thrilled with our new back yard! Alex and his crew did great work, gave us a beautiful plan and finished project, and finished ahead of schedule. They took our small yard from bare clay, gravel, and standing water to a lovely oasis. I asked for raised beds that I could plant in; they installed irrigation, lighting, hardscaping, and our beautiful pergola along with trees and shrubs to form the backbone of our garden. We're very happy with the results."

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Salem, OR

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.
