Why Choose a Second Level Addition?
More Space
No Extra Footprint
Additional Residential Units
We hear it all the time: “We need more space but don’t want to or can’t move from the area”. If you need more space but don’t want to move, a second storey addition is the perfect solution. Perhaps you love your neighbourhood, can’t find exactly what you’re looking for or don’t want to part with a sentimental family home.
Adding another level allows you to custom-tailor your home to your needs. You can preserve your lower-level layout while adding much-needed space above. Accommodate your growing family or create a new revenue stream—Artisan Contracting will build what you want, how you want it.

A second storey is more cost-effective than expanding outwards, especially if you want to do some renovations on the main level at the same time. Importantly, you also preserve precious yard space.
Building up also creates endless possibilities for the existing level or levels of your home through our floor truss design systems. Whether you want to move walls on the main level for an open concept feel or perhaps remove them altogether, we can plan for this, no problem.
A second storey addition requires an assessment of your home’s foundation to ensure it can handle the extra weight. In most cases, the foundation can be reinforced to support the new second level. Our team will evaluate and make necessary adjustments during the planning stage.
