General contractorin Kirkland.
Kirkland homeowners tend to love where they live and outgrow what they live in. Much of our Kirkland work is exactly that problem: 1970s–80s homes in great locations, remodeled and expanded instead of abandoned.

Building in Kirkland's housing stock
Juanita, Rose Hill, Finn Hill and the Norkirk/Highlands neighborhoods are full of 1960s–80s homes — split-levels and two-stories on comfortable lots, many with territorial or lake views that make moving unappealing. The Kirkland pattern is remodel-and-stay: the location is irreplaceable, so the house gets brought up to match it.
That shows up in the projects: view-aware kitchen remodels that reorient the main floor toward the water, primary-suite conversions, and second-story additions that add bedrooms without sacrificing yard. Kirkland's lot sizes and setbacks usually leave real room to work with.

What we build in Kirkland
Kitchens and primary suites lead our Kirkland work, with additions close behind — both out and up. A second story on a Kirkland rambler is a serious structural project, and it's one we like: engineered properly, it doubles bedroom count while keeping the lot's best qualities intact.
Permits run through City of Kirkland Building Services — a responsive, mid-sized office with predictable review times. One of our longest-standing reviews came from a Kirkland kitchen and main-floor remodel; you can read it on the reviews page.
Kirkland questions, answered
- Do you build second-story additions in Kirkland?
- Yes. Second stories on Kirkland's ramblers and split-levels are one of our specialties — they add bedrooms and views without losing yard. They require structural engineering and a full permit set, both of which we handle as part of the project.
- What does a home addition cost in Kirkland?
- Ground-level additions typically run $250–$450 per square foot; second-story additions more, because of structural work below. The honest number comes from the free estimate — lot, foundation and roofline drive it. Our permits guide covers the approval side.
- Have you worked in Kirkland before?
- Yes — Kirkland is one of our core cities, and one of the reviews on our site is from a Kirkland kitchen and main-floor remodel. We're happy to share details and references at the estimate visit.
