Second-Story Additions Done Right
A second story adds a lot of space on a small lot. It takes careful planning: the foundation and walls below have to carry the new load, and the roof, stairs and systems have to be redesigned.
We evaluate the structure, plan the work and keep the house protected during construction.
A walk through the project, a clear plan and tidy work from the first permit to the final walkthrough.

Can any house take a second story?
Not every house. We evaluate the foundation, walls and framing and tell you honestly what is possible.
Do we have to move out?
Often during the roof-off phase, yes. We plan the schedule to keep that period as short as possible.
How do I request a quote?
Call 615-431-3789 or send the form on this page. Tell us the address, what you want to build or change and when you would like to start, and photos or plans help. We follow up and set a time to walk the project.
Can I combine this with other work?
Yes. Many projects combine several services, such as framing, systems and finishes, and we plan them into a single schedule.
