You love where you live — your street, your neighbors, your kids' schools, the equity you've built. You just need more room. Another Story adds a second story to the home you already own, so you get the space without giving up the life. No move. No new mortgage shopping. No starting over in a neighborhood you didn't choose.
Most additions tear your roof off first and leave your home exposed. Another Story is built the other way around: we frame and weatherproof your new second floor above the existing roof first — and only remove the old roof once the new shell is dried-in and watertight. That sequence is the whole point: your first floor stays dry, your home stays livable, and you stay in it.
A bigger house in Mountain Brook, Vestavia Hills, Hoover, Homewood & Cahaba Heights usually means buying at today's prices and today's rates, plus the costs nobody quotes you: agent commissions, closing costs, moving, and the new higher tax basis — often well into six figures before you've added a single square foot you actually wanted.
Final numbers depend on your home — we give you a market-grounded estimate after a feasibility review.
