Additions & Popups

A seamless 2nd-story addition on Humboldt Street in Denver.

If you’ve outgrown the available space in your home, you don’t have to move.

With an addition or popup (a new second story) from H & H Builders, you can stay right where you are!

Some issues with our homes make us think the only solution is to sell and move on. But you might want to stay in your home, perhaps because:

  • It’s in a great neighborhood.
  • You’re so comfortable in it (aside from the lack of space).
  • It’s close to family, your favorite outdoor spots, or work.

H & H Builders can handle the structural challenges of additions and popups.

Additions and popups almost always necessitate structural changes to a home. For example:

  • A new second story or a large home addition requires walls and foundations to be shored up to accommodate new loads.
  • Adding a room to the back of a house requires an exterior wall to be breached and a new wall or doorway installed.

Fortunately, H & H Builders is the only Denver-area residential remodeling company owned by a structural engineer.

Owner John Happel relishes these kinds of challenges! “I’ve never met a structural problem I couldn’t solve,” he says.

We added a second story to this historic cottage in Golden.

Our Design-Build Process: A Better Way to Remodel

Adding a room or a second floor to your home is a major investment. You don’t want to spend money on plans that you can’t afford to build or have costs balloon after construction has begun.

Our Design–Build process ensures the best use of your budget:

  1. Plan: What do you want to change about your home? What dreams do you have for it? Let’s reimagine your space!
  2. Budget: We set a budget early on to ensure that you can build what we envision together in the Design phase.
  3. Design: Because of our design and construction experience, we often have creative and unexpected solutions.
  4. Build: We make your ideas a reality—transforming your home and improving your life!

Time after time, our Design-Build process produces additions that come in on time, on budget, and exceed expectations!

In our Design-Build process, we first discuss what you’d like to do to your home, then set a budget range with you and design your remodel with that budget in view.
