Why Consider a Second Story Addition?

Is your family outgrowing your current home, but you love your neighborhood too much to leave?

Want to add square footage without sacrificing yard space or going through the pain of moving?

A second-story addition, also known as a poptop remodel, is the perfect solution. At AAA Home Improvements, we specialize in transforming single-story homes into spacious multi-level masterpieces — without the stress.

Adding a second story doesn’t just give you more space. It redefines how you live. From stunning master suites with mountain views to upstairs retreats for kids or guests, we build upward with purpose, elegance, and structural integrity.

Let’s schedule your Second Story Addition consultation today.

We’ll explore what’s possible, what it will cost, and how to bring your vision to life with confidence.

I cannot say enough great things about AAA. I've worked with them multiple times, and they have always been super professional. Toby and his team were always timely and responsive when I asked questions. I've referred several friends to AAA because they do great work. My family is considering building an ADU, and we plan on having AAA build it. I highly recommend AAA for any project, big or small. They are great!

We had a great experience working with Toby and his team building a second story addition on our 100+ year old bungalow. In fact our first project so well, we hired them again to remove some walls and open the kitchen to the main living areas of the home, and finally complete a full remodel of our kitchen including redesigning the entire layout, moving the gas lines, water lines, drain lines, new electrical, cabinets and even a new kitchen ceiling. I don't have any reason I would ever hire anyone else after two successful experiences with AAA Home Improvements.

AAA home improvements recently finished our basement. From the start to finish, the project went great. Starting with Bob on the design and working with Luke, Toby, JT, we were thoroughly impressed with each phase of the work. Eddie, Rich, Merrill, Robert, Carlos, Andre, Antonio were all experts in their trades and we couldn’t have asked for better crews on this project. The basement was completed as scheduled and It turned out perfect! We highly recommend this company and would use them again on any future projects we may have.

Our first experience with AAA Home Improvements was in about 2006 for a “refresh” of our kitchen (light remodel). Since then they have assisted us with restoration repairs when a pipe broke, flooding our finished basement, then a deck, then new roofing and finishing a basement when we moved in 2013. In 2019 we came back to AAA for a major kitchen remodel, followed by a complete renovation of our primary bathroom a couple years later. We kept returning to AAA Home Improvements time after time because of the blend of customer service and expertise that they provide. Toby is very solution oriented and reasonable to work with when problems arise. Years of history of working with a firm that is obviously concerned with getting the job done right led us to asking Toby if AAA Home Improvements would be willing to tackle a new build in a mountain community. Working with Luke and Toby on the design-build of the house was an enormous task with beautiful results! We will continue to recommend AAA Home Improvements and seek them out for future projects. (In photos: the brick wall and windows were previously a wall of cabinets, the cooktop was moved off the island, the soffit was removed and the arch entryway was enlarged.)
