Before and After — Second storey addition, Kilcolman St, The Gap
At Dickson Renovations & Construction we have renovated many distinctive style homes in Brisbane and have the expertise to guide homeowners through the planning and development of a second storey addition or upper level extension.
Second Storey Additions
If you’re looking to create more space for your family, adding an extra storey to your home is an excellent option. As a homeowner, you’re not limited to just raising or building underneath — lifting the roof and adding another storey can be a cost-effective renovation solution and can provide extra bedrooms, living areas, bathrooms, master bedroom, ensuite, and walk-in wardrobe, plus a rumpus room. Refreshing the exterior of your home and adding a second storey is a fantastic way to increase both the value and street appeal of your property. We can blend the existing style of your home with the new addition, ensuring a cohesive and stylish result.
Home Styles
Brisbane is home to a diverse range of architectural styles, including Traditional Queenslanders, Cottage Style, Federation Period, California Bungalow, Art Deco, and Modern designs, and Dickson Renovations & Construction has experience working across many of these styles.
A lesser-known benefit of second-storey additions and extensions in Brisbane homes is the possibility to remove walls in the lower levels to create open plan living whilst expanding the homes liveable area with an upper level addition.

House Raising / Moving and
re-stumping / Build Ins
One of the most effective ways to create additional living space in your home is by raising and building underneath. Our house raising services in Brisbane can transform your single-storey home into a spacious double-storey, providing ample room for extra bedrooms, entertainment areas, and more.
If you are looking to increase the floor space of your home raising and building underneath is an ideal solution to expand your home’s footprint without compromising garden space. If you are aiming to modernise your home and add more room, raising and building under is a fantastic option. This type of renovation can give you extra bedrooms, living areas, bathrooms, a parent’s suite with a master bedroom, ensuite, walk-in wardrobe, and a rumpus room. Updating and modernizing the exterior while adding an entirely new living space is also a great way to boost the value and curb appeal of your property.
