Second Story Addition
Adding a second story addition to your home is one of the best ways to increase space, add bedrooms or living areas, and improve your home’s value.
At Kyra Construction, we guide homeowners through every step of the process from design and permits to construction ensuring your second story addition is safe, beautiful, and seamlessly integrated with your existing home.
Whether you want extra bedrooms, a new master suite, or a bonus living space, we manage every step from design to construction, ensuring quality, efficiency, and compliance with California building codes.
Why Choose a Second Story Addition?
A second story addition allows you to:
Maximize your home’s square footage without shrinking outdoor space.
Increase your home’s value and resale potential.
Improve functionality while keeping your neighborhood footprint intact.
Pro Tip: Second story additions are perfect for California homes where land is limited and expanding horizontally isn’t an option.
How Does a Second Story Addition Work?
Here’s a step-by-step look at the process, explained clearly so homeowners can understand:
1. Consultation & Design
We start with a consultation to understand your goals.
Using 3D design tools, we create a visual of your new second story.
This allows you to see exactly how it will look before construction begins.
2. Engineering & Permits
Adding a second story requires structural evaluation and city permits.
Our team coordinates with engineers and architects to ensure your home can safely support the additional floor. We handle all permits, inspections, and approvals, so the project stays compliant and on schedule.
3. Construction
Our construction team manages every detail:
Reinforcing existing foundation and framing
Building the new floor structure
Installing windows, roofing, and interior finishes
Electrical, plumbing, and HVAC upgrades
We coordinate trades efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily life.
4. Finishing & Walkthrough
Once construction is complete, we finalize finishes, flooring, paint, and trim.
We then provide a walkthrough to ensure your new space meets your expectations.
Benefits of a Second Story Addition
