The Narrow Lane Company is a full service landscape company dedicated to creating and maintaining beautiful outdoor spaces you'll absolutely love! All work is done in a timely, professional manner and 100% guaranteed.

"Worst experience working with a contractor we have ever had. Lack of communication was astounding. Reached out to start the project on our tiny front lawn in June/July. Didn't start planting until mid October. Was told there were 5 jobs in front of ours. Ignored photos of exactly what we wanted. Finish product is passable at best. Would not recommend."

Marco Polo Home Builder has been building homes & doing renovations all over Massachusetts with a great combination of skills-building knowledge, craftsmanship, and professional project management. Over the years, we understood that construction is about wood, bricks, and family. We take our job thoughtfully because we know that a home is the most sanctified place for a person. We value our clients' needs and work with our crew and subcontractors to prioritize them. We aim to make your dream project a reality and hope to be on this journey with you.

"In addition to the kitchen, they also remodeled our bathroom. Marco was sensitive to the fact that we only had one bathroom and made sure we were out the facilities for the minimum time possible. Our bathroom remodel was completed with lightning speed which we really appreciated! The kitchen remodel was also speedy. They worked with our requirements for smaller than usual appliances, finding, and even building, cabinets to fit our small kitchen space. Everyone who worked on our projects were very professional, wearing masks and keeping windows open even in the winter months. We're very happy with our new kitchen and bathroom!"

"I reached out to Liam to to possibly hire him to remodel two bathrooms for me. He came over to look at them and sent me an estimate. There were a few items we had discussed that were wrong on the estimate, and there were also a few new (minor) items we hadn’t discussed I wanted to add into scope, so I set up a follow up phone call with Liam. While on the phone with Liam, I had asked if he was licensed as a Construction Supervisor, which I read on Mass.gov was a requirement for my project scope. Liam said he was and when I asked for him to provide his license # when he sends me the revised estimate, he agreed to do so. (For context behind my request, Mass.gov had only showed his HIC license but not a CS license, and the phone rep I had spoken with also confirmed he was not licensed a CS. But I wanted to give Liam the benefit of the doubt…perhaps the license was not listed under his name, but maybe a partner name). The morning after our phone convo, I received this text from Liam: “Good morning, After speaking with you yesterday morning I've decided I do not want to do the project for you, I wish you all the best and finding another contractor. But I'm clearly not interested.” Huh? What the heck is this about? Since Liam didn’t give me the reason why he “clearly wasn’t interested” and when I responded to ask, I found he had blocked me from contacting him. I strongly caution anyone considering Liam to hire. This experience leaves me to believe he is not an honest, trustworthy, or legally qualified professional. He most surely does not have the CS license he claimed he has and was forced to bail on the project since he knew he couldn’t back up that claim with a license #. Liam evidently had no respect for me as a person. If he did he would have given me the common courtesy of the reason for his sudden loss of interest (or leave me the ability to respond to him to ask). I feel I dodged a bullet by doing some basic due diligence before hiring him (as I have done for every contractor I have hired for my projects in my 20+ years of owning a a home.) I strongly suggest that you think twice before contacting Liam for work to be done. Is this how YOU want to be treated? Is this someone you want to entrust your time and hard earned money to?"

Second story addition building services FAQs

Many homeowners find adding a second story a worthwhile investment. It significantly increases their home's value and provides more living space to enjoy. It’s especially beneficial for homeowners with a limited lot size who want to add square footage without building out. 

The time required to build a second story depends on the size and complexity of the project. While most additions are completed within two to six months, some larger or more intricate designs may take up to a year. The permitting process, weather conditions, and material availability also affect the timeline.

Your budget, location, and lot size will determine if it’s best to build up or out. If you live on a lot with limited space, building up allows you to add square footage without taking up additional ground space. Building out is often best if you live in an area with zoning restrictions or want to live in your home while it’s under construction.
