The attention to detail is incredible. The Andare team has just finished building my home and I'm absolutely blown away. I've been living in here for just under a month now and I still haven't found a single flaw, you can really see their experience and craftsmanship in every part of the home.

Local Context
Second-Storey Additions in East Gwillimbury
More than adding a floor
A second-storey addition affects the entire house. The existing structure must be reviewed, the stair location has to work, mechanical systems may need re-routing, and the exterior needs to read as one home after the build.
Andare plans the project around structure, family function, and finished architecture, not just square footage.
In-house design for upper-level living
Before drawings settle, Andare's designers determine whether the new level should hold bedrooms, a primary suite, laundry, bathrooms, storage, or flexible space. They also plan how the stair arrives, how natural light enters the upper floor, and how the new elevation changes the street presence.
Toronto bungalow conversions often need careful choices around ceiling heights, rooflines, side-yard constraints, and how much of the main floor must open to support the work.
Structure and permit coordination
Second-storey work typically requires engineering and permit drawings. Andare keeps structural review tied to the construction plan so load paths, beams, posts, walls, roof structure, and temporary protection are understood before construction begins.
Process
- Feasibility and existing-home review
- Upper-level layout and exterior design direction
- Engineering review and permit planning
- Site protection, demolition, and structural work
- Framing, envelope, services, interiors, and finishes
- Final review and handover

Second-Storey Additions in East Gwillimbury: what shapes the work
East Gwillimbury includes growing communities such as Holland Landing, Sharon, Queensville, and Mount Albert, along with rural roads and newer family subdivisions. Work often involves additions, basements, kitchens, bathrooms, garages, outdoor living, custom homes, and structural changes for families moving into larger lots.
East Gwillimbury projects need local municipal and York Region review. Toronto rules do not apply. Zoning, lot coverage, grading, servicing, conservation, tree impacts, septic considerations, and building permits need to be checked before construction scope is confirmed.
The construction plan can change sharply between a newer subdivision home and a rural-edge property. Driveway access, drainage, servicing, soil, mature trees, and future family use all need to be considered together.
Andare's in-house planning can help East Gwillimbury clients decide what should be renovated, expanded, or rebuilt before the project becomes a set of isolated trade tasks.
Andare supports homeowners in Holland Landing, Sharon, Queensville, Mount Albert, River Drive Park, and surrounding rural-residential areas where the property needs careful planning before work begins. Andare keeps second-storey additions tied to the home in front of us, not a generic city-wide template.
