Raising a new second story over an existing house

What we see in Dallas

Problems we fix

An addition gets you more house without moving. The work that decides whether it lasts is the part nobody sees: how the new foundation ties into the old one on Dallas clay, how the roof ties in, and how the siding or brick matches. We price each of those as its own line so you can see what you are paying for.

  • Growing family in a 3 bedroom home on a lot you love
  • Tying a new slab to the existing foundation on expansive clay without cracking either
  • Matching roof lines, brick and siding so the addition does not look added
  • Garage conversions and new door openings that need headers and permits

We coordinate the structural engineer and the permit when the city requires one.
