Hi--

We are looking for a good contractor that we can trust to do a second floor addition to our home--as well as open up the first floor and kitchen. If you know someone who is reliable and reasonable--I would appreciate it! Thanks! M.

What can I do next?

M.,

We are very happy with our contractor. He has done many projects around our home - new kitchen, baths, entire basement remodel - almost a complete rehab of our second floor. His crew is very nice. They are almost like an extension of our family now. He is very affordable but most of all they do excellent work.

I have a fantastic contractor that I used for my home and my neighbors have used as well. The company is called Pro-Line. Ask for Robert Cochran and tell him that T. recommended you. Their phone number is ###-###-####. They do great work. If you would like to see my home (and the work they did) feel free to email me at ____@____.com and I can give you my address so you could stop by. They did my siding, my front and back doors, my front window, my patio door and enlarged my wall opening between my kitchen and my back room. Hope this helps. T.

Hi M.,

Look up Randy Tapper. He does a ton of additions in and around the North Shore. He is doing my friend's house now in Highland Park, and it is FABULOUS!! My dad did a ton of business with him, and he is the niceset, most reasonable man.

I think his company's name is RLT designs. If not, his name is Randy Tapper and you can look him up. If you can't find it, let me know and I will get the number for you.

Good luck.

We just added a second floor addition - with some difficult issues. We had great luck with European Contractors - they were prompt in giving a quote, below all of the other quotes - and came in on time (two 1/2 months for the project).

The contact is Henry - the number is ###-###-####.

By the way, his specialty is custom cabinetry- but we had our kitchen done before we met him.

Good Luck!
