Adding a second storey to your bungalow starts off with figuring out where to locate the staircase to your new second floor. In some cases, you can keep most of the existing main floor and take down bedroom walls to create an open concept. Your new second floor is a blank canvas. Depending on the size of your bungalow, you can have 3 or 4 bedrooms with up to 2 bathrooms including a new master ensuite. We can help you design your new home with an eye to keep costs down and make the construction easier and faster.  A good idea to keep costs down is to either use stucco or wood siding for the new second floor.   

When designing your new home, it's best to keep within the height restrictions and maximum square footage limits of the area zoning bylaw, as to avoid a lenghty Committee of Adjustment application...  otherwise an application for "minor variances" will need to be made.

We offer design/build services.  Our design costs are very reasonable and typically around $10,000
