Second Story Addition Contractor in Richwood TX
MAV Design & Build builds second story additions on existing single-story homes throughout Richwood TX and the Brazosport area, adding 800 to 1,600 square feet of bedrooms, bathrooms, and bonus rooms above the existing structure without impacting any lot area below. For Richwood TX homeowners on smaller Brazosport-area lots, a second story addition is often the only practical option for meaningful square footage expansion.
Why Richwood TX Homeowners Choose Second Story Additions
Richwood TX lots are compact by Brazoria County standards, sitting between Lake Jackson and Clute in a densely developed Brazosport community. Many Richwood homeowners have already maximized their lot footprint with patios, storage, and landscaping — making a second story addition the only viable path to adding bedrooms and bathrooms without sacrificing the outdoor space they’ve established. A second story delivers the living space a growing family needs while the full lot remains intact.
