"I recently had the pleasure of working with MF Builders on a home addition, kitchen remodeling, and bathroom remodeling project, and I am beyond thrilled with the results! From the very beginning, their team was professional, communicative, and truly took the time to understand my vision for the space. The home addition turned out better than I could have imagined, seamlessly blending with the existing structure while adding much-needed space and functionality. The kitchen remodel completely transformed the heart of my home. It now feels open, modern, and incredibly efficient. The attention to detail in the cabinetry, countertops, and lighting really made a difference. As for the bathroom, it went from outdated to absolutely luxurious. The design was both practical and stylish, with quality finishes and fixtures that made it feel like a spa. Throughout the process, the MF Builders team was respectful of my space, kept the work area tidy, and always made sure I was satisfied with each step. What really stood out was their commitment to meeting deadlines and staying within budget. They provided regular updates and were always open to any questions or concerns I had. I am so happy with the final outcome and highly recommend MF Builders to anyone looking to renovate or expand their home. They exceeded my expectations in every way!"

"We used to love this service and gave them glowing reviews on Google in the past, but something has changed. Their customer service sucks, they don't apologize, don't call back etc. We had a hot water heater installed 2 years ago. It is still under warranty. Yesterday, 11/9/25, it broke and started leaking badly - still under a warranty from them. A.J. Perri advertises as they are 24/7 company, but they would not come yesterday and would promise us that first thing this morning, at 8 am, they would be knocking on the door. They never came, never called and never apologized. In fact, they have an attitude for misleading us and at 10 am mo one is here. The technician (do they only have 1 technician?) Is over 1 5 h away at another job. Customer service sucks with them really badly and now I feel as because we called them and voiced our dissatisfaction, no one will reach out to us or help us, while we are covered by their warranty. We had to pay for another service last night to pump"

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in West Orange, NJ

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.
