Home Additions
Two-Story Addition
A growing family gained a full second story and reworked ground floor that reads as part of the original house.
The approach
- Verified the existing foundation and framing could carry a second story, then designed the reinforcement.
- Matched rooflines and exterior finishes so the addition integrates rather than announcing itself.
Scope of work
- Structural engineering for a second story
- Foundation and framing reinforcement
- Roof tie-ins and exterior matching
- Full MEP extension and Title 24 compliance
Outcome
Nearly double the living space, with no seam between old and new.
