Additions & second stories

Add a floor without adding a middleman.

Single-story and second-story additions, drawn by our in-house architect and built by the same company. The drawings, the price and the build all come from one place.

  • Second stories
  • Bedrooms & in-law suites
  • Bigger kitchens & dining rooms
  • Offices & studios
  • Sunrooms
  • Garages & bonus rooms

What we build

Inside, outside and up, from the first drawing to the final walkthrough.

  1. Additions & second stories Drawn in-house, built by the same company.
    House exterior: a two-story addition in gray lap siding under its own gable roof, with new windows on both floors, two entry doors and a new concrete walk and steps.
  2. Kitchens Layouts, cabinetry, counters, flooring and lighting.
    Kitchen range wall: a stainless gas range and chimney hood against a full-height white veined backsplash, with lit glass-front upper cabinets on both sides.
  3. Bathrooms Walk-in showers, tile, vanities and storage.
    Bathroom walk-in shower for two: a window framed in mosaic tile between two black shower heads and hand showers, a tiled bench under the window, marble-look walls and a mosaic floor.
  4. Basements Bars, media walls, guest rooms and built-ins.
    Basement stair: stained wood treads turning up past a dark plank wall, with wood trim, a wood handrail and a timber beam above.
  5. Outdoor rooms Covered patios, pavilions, screened porches and decks.
    Covered porch from the yard: cedar posts and a cedar top rail with black balusters, under the roof edge of a board-and-batten house.
  6. Garages & siding Attached and detached garages, new siding.
    House exterior: a story-and-a-half house with two front dormers in board-and-batten siding, a long front porch on cedar posts with a black-baluster railing, and wide cedar steps.
