Second-Story Addition Transformation
It’s not just a job—it’s an adventure. After more than 25 years in the business, the excitement of a new project never fades, especially when we’re literally building new horizons for our clients. There’s a unique thrill that comes with transforming a beloved home into a spacious, brand-new living space. And nothing captures that transformation quite like a second-story addition.
Building Up, Frame by Frame
We had the privilege of working on an incredible project in the heart of the community, turning a modest single-story house into a magnificent two-story home. Thanks to modern technology and partnership with Lance Richert, Architect, we were able to capture the most dramatic moments of the build.
Watch the time-lapse drone video below!
- Foundation & Framing: See the meticulous process of stripping the old roof and securing the structure for the new level. Then, watch as the new second-story walls go up—a rapid, precise dance of lumber and teamwork that defines the new profile of the home.
- Roofing Rhapsody: The drone gives a bird’s-eye view as the new roof is built, layer by layer, providing protection and completing the structural shell. It’s a powerful visual reminder of the complexity and skill involved in creating a watertight, durable crown for the house.
- The Big Reveal: Finally, the video culminates in a stunning reveal of the completed home. The smooth transition from construction chaos to polished perfection is what we live for.
