Looking for second-story additions in Afton, MN? MN Tree Pros has been serving Afton and the surrounding Twin Cities metro since 2008. We're licensed, insured, and locally owned — and we actually pick up the phone.
## Add a full floor without giving up your yard A second-story addition doubles your living space on the same footprint. For Twin Cities homeowners on lots they love — good schools, walkable neighborhoods, mature trees — it is often the only way to get the space without leaving. **What we do** - Structural feasibility and foundation capacity evaluation - Full and partial pop-tops (over the garage or one wing) - Temporary weather protection for the roof-off phase - New roof, whole-house siding tie-in, and second HVAC zone - Staircase design that does not wreck your main floor **What it costs** A full second story runs **$220,000–$480,000** ($290–$420/sq ft). A partial addition over an attached garage is **$120,000–$240,000**. Read the [second-story addition cost guide](/blog/second-story-addition-cost-mn) for the full breakdown. **The three questions we answer first** — before you spend a dollar on plans: can the foundation take it, where do the stairs go, and can you be out of the house for four to six months? **Weather protection is not optional here.** Any bid without a temporary roof or tenting line item is not a real bid in Minnesota. We schedule roof-off for May through September whenever possible.
