Green Bay Remodeling can help you design and budget for any type of addition you want for your home, whether it’s a second-story addition or expanding a certain room. When it comes to second-story additions, local codes need to be taken into consideration – luckily for you, we know what to look for and can do the research for you. Call our experts today to find out what the first step for your project is.

Before building a second-story addition to your home, there are a few things to think about! Laws may prohibit the building of second floors because they can create shade issues for neighboring homes, or they may impact the general aesthetics of the area. In any case, keep in mind that second-story additions may have increased costs due to additional reinforcements that will need to be implemented and permits that have to be attained.

If you need help figuring out whether you’re allowed to build a second-floor addition to your home, we will be happy to do the research on your behalf – at no cost or obligation! Different requirements may be necessary depending on the type of home and the size of the addition. For example, a ranch-style structure will create much more stress on the footings and foundation compared to some other styles of building. Because of this, footings and foundations are usually built much stronger and wider for two-story buildings and some foundation work might need to be done before the addition can begin.

Regardless of what type of project you’re looking for, Green Bay Remodeling is the right choice!
