What your Poway home addition includes

- Second-story additions. Expand upward without losing yard space — ideal for San Diego lots where square footage is at a premium.
- Structural expertise. Foundations, load paths, and tie-ins handled by a licensed team so your addition is solid and code-compliant.
- Free 3D rendering. See exactly how your addition will look and flow before a single nail goes in.
Featured project: the Curlew St lot split
At 3680–3682 Curlew St in San Diego, we added a second story to the main house and converted the garage into a separate unit. The owner now has two rentable addresses on one lot. It's the project we point Poway homeowners to first, because it shows our permitting, structural, and finish work in one place.
