It's not just the bid that sells you. It's the character of the person, the talent, the experience and the love of the work. Devotion to the task and the trust you feel. After all, you are asking someone to come into your home, come into your life, and help you realize a personal vision...beautifully, professionally and comfortably. Let me introduce myself. My name is Rob, owner of F.P Seaside Painting. Wherever you live in Rhode Island, myself and our team of local licensed and insured contractors would love to talk with you about your next painting project, because I believe that we are the painters you are looking for. We are dependable, local artisans...mindful of your budget and meticulous with the brush. F.P. Seaside Painting has been in business for over 10 years We are here to help you with your painting needs. Please give us a call for dependable professionals that love what they do...

"We hired Seaside Painting, owned and operated by Rob Robinson, to paint our two decks and two sets of stairs. Rob quoted us “a four day job.” We were impressed with his proposed process of sinking nails, cleaning, sanding, sealing, and two coats of deck paint. We understood and expected weather delays. The job started August 30 and never ended. Well, we ended it on September 17. We had had enough of lack of communication and responses to calls and texts, no shows, poor attitude, and rudeness. When he picked up his ladders and final check, he said to my husband, “You are the crazy man who covered the deck and expected me to paint the next day.” Before the hurricane/rain storm, we covered all the rails that he had sanded and left open and unsealed in an effort to reduce the wood from swelling and from taking a longer time to dry out. On September 13, we texted him asking if he or his crew would be coming to work. While we waited, we spent four hours finishing the painting of the front stairs and rails ourselves. Three days later he responded. By that time we had had enough and told him to pick up his ladders and that we would finish the work ourselves, split the final payment with him which we thought was more than fair. This time he immediately responded and threatened to have his attorney put a lien on our home unless we paid $150 more than we offered. Bottom line: what his contract states as his work ethics, “open and honest communication,” his “proven process” for decks, is unfounded. To his credit, a day after he picked up his ladders and final check, he did apologize via text and mentioned that his company “went bad” and that he “should have been able to finish on time.”"

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Taftville, CT

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.
