"Remodel went extremely well even with material delays (not ordered through Rowe construction.) They were able to pivot and work on different areas of this extensive remodel. This crew showed up every day and notified us if they were not going to come or if they were delayed.They also pointed out and/or were able to troubleshoot areas of design that wouldn’t look aesthetically pleasing. In addition, they cleaned up the interior each day and regularly picked up construction waste placed in the garage during this process."

At Balsitis Contracting Inc. we pride ourselves on many things, including transparency, open book billing, extreme attention to detail and providing the highest quality product that fits within the client’s budget. Our team consists of individuals in the office that have worked previously in the field and in various aspects of the industry. We also have two separate five-man in-house carpenter crews that have well over two hundred years of combined experience with custom home building. Honestly, we can say that we have the best employees that a general contracting firm could ever ask for. We assure that our subs themselves deliver the same quality and attention to detail that we ask for from our own employees. In closing, we let our work do the talking for us, as we are not the type to pat ourselves on the back, but instead spend that time to give you a product that you can be proud to say that Balsitis Contracting Inc. built.

"It went well from the beginning to the end. they were very knowledgeable , understand what their r doing, it was not just telling us what they will do, they demonstrated how and what they will do and we were happy."

Home Building questions, answered by experts

Since building up tends to provide useful bedrooms and other extra spaces without the need to do a lot of foundation work and cut into your yard, second stories tend to have better ROI—up to 65%—than other kinds of additions. But ROI will depend on the type of rooms you are planning and what your current house has. It’s not a very reliable way to judge the success or failure of a project, so consider other factors as well.

Due to the expansion of the tiny house movement, you can usually find tiny houses to buy in your state. Prices range considerably based on size, style, and type. If you’re looking for a tiny home that’s move-in ready, you may be able to find a good deal to buy or a prefab dealer near you. 

While a log cabin is often less expensive to build than a typical home, cabins actually have a similar cost per square foot. The main difference affecting price is that log cabins tend to be much smaller than traditional homes. For instance, many cabins are about 500 square feet, versus a traditional house which averages between 2,000 and 3,000 square feet.

In the U.S., original and converted carriage houses are most often found in New England, New York, and other parts of the Northeast. New construction carriage houses can be found across the country, and are often added to properties with Colonial-style homes for additional living, storage, or work space, although they can be found in many different styles.

As long as you pull the appropriate permits to build your ADU, it will contribute to your property’s total livable square footage. This is even true for basement conversion ADUs despite the living area sitting below grade. Keep in mind that permanent improvements, especially those that add square footage, tend to increase your home value, which can affect your property taxes.
