With over 25 years experience, family owned and operated. We are a home improvement contractor that pride ourselves on being available for our customers, standing behind our product, service and labor. Focusing on kitchen and bathroom remodeling in the New York City and Brooklyn area working on brownstone homes and apartment renovations.

"Mark took a deposit from me and then never followed up on submitting the proposal I signed to my co-op and getting approval. Finally almost a year later, I asked for the deposit back, and he said he would mail immediately after briefly trying to convince me to still let him do the job, because it was simply "out of sight out of mind". That was 2 years ago. I'm filing a small claims case against him/the company tomorrow."

We want our customers to be 100% satisfied with every job which is why we provide open communication channels throughout the entire project. Not everyone has an exact vision for their remodel. Let us help you paint the picture.

"I just moved into a new apartment and needed to have it painted and have the bathroom tiles reglazed. Painting and Projects gave me a very competitive price, and after seeing some examples of the high quality of their work, I decided to do a full bathroom gut renovation, in addition to the paint work. I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. This was a big job on a tight timeline but the process was seamless from the very first meeting with Waylon. I’ve already recommended Painting and Projects to some friends, and would 100% use them again."

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.
