Glendale

Second-Story Additions contractor in Glendale

A second story changes the outside of the house as much as the inside, and the two get planned together or not at all. Where the new walls meet the old, how the roofline resolves, how siding and trim carry from the lower floor to the upper one: these are drawn before framing rather than settled on a ladder with the shell already up. The interior follows the same drawings, since the stair has to land somewhere downstairs and the rooms below it change with it. Underneath all of that is the structural work that lets the house carry a new floor at all, which is the first thing engineered and the last thing anyone sees. Permit handling runs plan review through inspection.

One appointment gets it moving, and it is free. An onsite visit, then an estimate that reads as a scope of work in detail rather than a total, with a remodeling consultation folded into it. Permit submittal and the inspections afterwards belong to the contractor. Financing is available. Whatever gets built is under a warranty of 5 years. On the record side: CSLB #1072368, insured as well as licensed, in business since 2020, and over 580 completed projects. Reach the office by call or by text on (310) 220-0903.

I recently hired My Cali Builders for a backyard remodel and couldn't be happier. Danny and his team were professional, punctual, and easy to communicate with. They really paid attention to the details and brought my vision to life. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations from start to finish. Everything was done cleanly and on schedule, which I really appreciated. Danny made the whole process smooth and stress-free. The backyard now looks amazing and feels like a completely new space. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable contractors.

I began my Yelp search for a company to perform structural repairs and ultimately chose 5 companies, scheduling each of them for a representative to visit and discuss my needs. I chose My Cali Builders based upon Danny's (owner) review of the work and how he defined the scope of the work. The other representatives vacillated on the scope of the work and attached various caveats. My Cali Builders also gave me the best bid. So I hired them and boy, am I glad I did. Work was performed quickly, efficiently and the finish work was excellent. Every task I initially discussed with Danny was completed. Danny's crew including Francisco and Jaime, were top notch and pleasant. Each day, refuse and trash were removed. Every day, Danny either visited or texted to advise on progress and to insure the work was progressing as discussed and to ask if I was satisfied and happy. I can't convey in words how much I appreciated My Cali Builders. Look no further, they are the best I've ever encountered.

Danny Raz is a man of action; the work was done promptly and even finished ahead of schedule. The workers were polite, respectful, of cleaned up well after the job.

FAQs

Second-Story Additions in Glendale - common questions

Answers to the most common questions about this service in your area.

Yes. We have completed multiple Second-Story Additions projects in Glendale. Call (310) 220-0903 to schedule a free onsite visit, or compare public feedback on the customer reviews page.

Second-story additions are larger scopes that typically run 3 to 6 months. We cover framing, roofing, and interior tie-ins under one team. We give you a written schedule during the estimate so milestone dates are clear before field work starts.

Second-story additions require structural permits and we coordinate the plan review and inspection sequence throughout the project. You can also step back to the main Glendale page to compare related local services.

Nothing on the site names a price for a second-story addition, because the honest inputs are all specific to one house: what the existing structure can carry, how much is being added, what the roof requires, where the stair goes, what the rooms are finished with. The free onsite visit collects those, the written scope of work records them, and the estimate prices them.

Yes. CA Contractor License #1072368. Licensed and insured. The public record is on the CSLB lookup.

A warranty of 5 years comes with the addition. If something covered goes wrong inside that period, the contact is the same number you booked on, (310) 220-0903, and the same company that built it: licensed, insured, CSLB #1072368, in business since 2020. The scope of work signed at the start is what defines the covered items, which is one more reason to read it closely before the build begins.
The house is looked at before anything is drawn. That means the framing, the roof, the way the existing walls line up and what sits above the ceilings. You talk through the rooms you want on the new level and what you are willing to give up below for the stair. The result is a written detailed scope of work and a remodeling consultation, neither of which is billed.
