"RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!!! Helitech built a 20' wall/foundation with a 1" inward bow in the wall. Temporary support structure that was to be put in place to support our home during demolition and construction were never used. Suppots structures of a temporary nature put in by the homeowner were used without any engineering certification. Support structures that were put into place as part of the contract. Were impropery engineered. Some were left not even touching the floor joist at all. Some supports only carried a portion of the area that were meant to be supported. Leveling of the floors as per the contract was never attempted. Electrical work was preformed by unskilled workers. An electrical junction box for a generator tie into the home. Was removed from the work area and never replaced. Request to address the concerns in detail were never satisfied. The foundation built out of tolerance. When asked to be reconstructed were ignored. Denial of patching the out of spec foundation have been denied by the consumer. We did not pay for a patch job. All questions pertaining to the concerns of how that work was done so poorly have been ignored. Supervision of the crew working on the project was not done. Compensation for work not preformed was denied. Trust between the consumer and Helitech as well as contractual agreements have been broken by Helitech."

Since that time, we have been installing, training and broadening our scope of efforts to include retail, commercial and industrial flooring solutions for our clients.

Additional DBA - The Renovators. Additional contact name - Scott Dillman. Additional service areas: Paxton, Fisher & Tuscola
"Installed roof on new construction home. 1 yr later several problems and signs of leaking. The roof has many low nails, some very low nails and some of those are blown all the way through. There are shingles missing right at the valley and have been missing for a while, the felt is not black at all anymore. There are probably 40 holes through the shingles where the siding installers nailed their pump jacks through the roof. There is a snow valley on the west side of the home where the valley is backwards allowing water to run underneath the snow valley. There are several face nails throughout the roof that were never sealed. There are a few face nails that serve no purpose where someone may have shot a nail gun on accident and did not replace the shingle. Overall the roof has many areas that need addressed. Contractor not taking responsibility. Would NEVER recommend!!"

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.
