At Start to Finish, we specialize in kitchen and bathroom remodels. I pride myself on our commitment to excellence. I work very diligently and quickly to ensure the dreams you have for your home become a reality. I have been doing remodeling for 8 years and still enjoy going to work everyday. My name is Alex and I am the owner/operator. I will work to get your house where you want it.

"Alex did a great job putting up crown molding and picture frame molding in my daughter's nursery! He also turned closet doors into a beautiful wardrobe that I had wanted for her Narnia closet :) he called me back immediately after putting in a request for a bid and answered all of my questions. He was able to come very quickly and get the job done before some people even got back to me telling me my job was too small of a job! He was very fairly priced and my family and I have used him for other jobs since. I would definitely recommend his services and can't believe how beautiful the nursery turned out! Thank you Alex!"

Second story addition building services FAQs

Many homeowners find adding a second story a worthwhile investment. It significantly increases their home's value and provides more living space to enjoy. It’s especially beneficial for homeowners with a limited lot size who want to add square footage without building out. 

The time required to build a second story depends on the size and complexity of the project. While most additions are completed within two to six months, some larger or more intricate designs may take up to a year. The permitting process, weather conditions, and material availability also affect the timeline.

Your budget, location, and lot size will determine if it’s best to build up or out. If you live on a lot with limited space, building up allows you to add square footage without taking up additional ground space. Building out is often best if you live in an area with zoning restrictions or want to live in your home while it’s under construction.
