Second Storey Additions on the Peninsula

A second storey is the most disruptive job a family home can go through. Roof off, tarps up, and the weather doing whatever it likes. The difference between a good experience and a bad one is how quickly the new floor and roof go on — so we plan the sequence carefully and keep the house watertight.

We do all the carpentry ourselves, from standing the new frames and trusses through to hanging the doors upstairs, so the same two people are responsible for the job from start to finish.

What this covers

  • New upper floors over existing single storey homes
  • Structural upgrades to footings, walls and beams below
  • New floor joists, frames, trusses and roofing
  • Internal stairs and reworking the downstairs layout to suit
  • Staged weatherproofing so the house stays protected
  • Coordination with your engineer and certifier throughout

Licensed and insured. D M Hayes Builder Pty Ltd holds NSW Contractor Licence 178648C in the Builder class. Drew Hayes is the nominated supervisor.

Living in the house during the build

  • Many clients stay put for at least part of a second storey job.
  • We talk through the staging up front so you know which weeks will be the hard ones.
  • The site gets cleaned down at the end of every day — that is not a slogan, it is how we were taught.
