Tidewater Pro Build is a mid-size home remodeling company operating out of Chesapeake, VA. Our team does the majority of the leg work in the field and in so doing keeps subcontracting to a minimum. We provide flexible financing options.

"This whole experience went better than any other project we've had done. Caleb, the owner, spoke with me first and was willing to look at the bathroom the same day. I got a quote for just the shower and one for the entire bathroom. We decided to replace just the shower. I received weekly phone calls updating me on when they could start. They were able to start earlier than anticipated and they completed the work quickly and efficiently. I was trying to coordinate this from another state and they did a great job taking pictures and staying in touch. The shower looks amazing."

"At the begging of the project, everything went great. Erik was very professional and on time. The problem lies within his help and lack of communication after the project got started. Decisions were made without consulting me first, which caused some confusion and changing of plans. The tile work ended up turning out well, except a poor job on the caulking around the shower. The biggest issue of all was the hardwood floors. They guy he had redo my floors did a horrible job and had to come back three times and taking over 2 weeks to do so and the end result was mediocre at best. I ended up having to pull up half the quarter round and redo it, because he did not remove the old nails before reinstalling the quarter round. Then half the quarter round was off a little which really showed at the outside corners. He also broke a tile at the threshold of the bathroom and hallway and covered it up by shifting the threshold back, which by doing so, made the threshold loose and I ended up having to replace it myself. My opinion is that if Erik just had my job to worry about then it would have gotten done a lot faster and been a better quality. It seems as if he had too many jobs going on at once and was spread too then, which resulted in less than acceptable work."

I come from a family of builders, developers, remodelers, electricians, appraisers, realtors, and many other trades in the building industry. My father, who taught me the trades, is a master developer, architect, designer, and builder. He has some of the highest-selling properties in my hometown in California. I grew up working alongside him and other family members framing, building new houses, and renovating old ones. I have served in the military for 18 years and throughout my service I made extra money for my family by buying and renovating properties. Working in both renovations and new construction has allowed me to do almost all aspects of construction, home repair, renovation, structural re-engineering, and design. Due to my background, I see and approach projects from an aesthetic, builders, and renovators mindset. This allows me to find ways to make any ideas or projects you have in mind come to life for an affordable price whereas others will simply tell you what they can or can’t do based on convenience and not desired outcome. I am a builder who can do everything from the ground up, which saves you significant time and money because I can complete a project autonomously without the need for multiple subcontractors. If I don’t have experience in something unique you’d like to build I am willing to learn and figure it out as I go. I love designing and building beautiful homes and tackling difficult projects that take complex problem-solving to complete. I have three sons, whom I love and cherish with all my heart. I love being a father and have been extremely thankful to have been able to build my sons' halfpipes, obstacle courses, tree forts, and, currently, an indoor climatized basketball/sports gymnasium, or Barnasium, as we have been calling it. I love discussing and thinking through creative projects and solutions of any kind so if you have any ideas or projects you've been thinking about, call me and let's brainstorm and talk.

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.
