Our Client Testimonials
Adding a second story addition to our Santa Clara home felt risky until we signed with Lecut. They locked in our contract price before breaking ground, eliminating cost overruns. Their crew worked efficiently, completing structural framing ahead of schedule while keeping the job site spotless.
Our rotting porch in Palo Alto was unsafe, but Lecut completed a new composite deck building job in four days flat.
We had a great experience working with Lecut and Yari on our bathroom remodel. Yari was very responsive and easy to communicate with throughout the entire project, and Lecut did a great job with the installation and finishing work.
They were professional, reliable, and always willing to come back and take care of small details when needed. We're very happy with how everything turned out and really appreciate their hard work and attention to detail.
I had a consultation with Yari to discuss a potential home remodel. He spent a great deal of time understanding my goals, brainstorming different layout options, and explaining the pros and cons of each approach. I appreciated that he was thoughtful, patient, and transparent throughout the discussion. He followed up with a detailed summary of our meeting and a realistic preliminary estimate, which helped me make an informed decision. Although I ultimately decided not to move forward with a major remodel, I had a very positive experience working with him and would gladly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and professional contractor.
LeCut will ensure you love your renewed home.
After beating out two other remodel bids, because of the team, vision, and value, Yari, Luis, and team transformed our outdated bathroom into a clean, usable, and comfortable space. Working with Yari was a great experience, since he personally ensured we were 100% satisfied with the results of the project. Communicating with the team was smooth and the team was clean and respectful with with the rest of our house. Prior to completing the project, Yari did a thorough inspection with us to identify issues with tile alignment and grout finish. Yari and Luis brought the team back to rework the fit and finish items quickly, leaving us completely happy with the space.
We needed a kitchen update and a complete bathroom renovation in a smaller home. They maximized the space without making it feel crowded. Cabinets, counters, and tile all look custom. Communication was clear from start to finish and there were no last-minute extras. The rooms feel new and well built.
We remodeled the kitchen and two bathrooms as part of a larger first-floor refresh. The kitchen now works for a family and the bathrooms feel like they belong in a nicer house. Attention to trim, grout, and hardware stood out. They stayed on schedule and the final walkthrough was thorough. Extremely pleased with the results.
Our master bathroom and kitchen were last remodeled in the 90s, so we finally hired LeCut. The walk-in shower, dual vanity, and new kitchen layout completely changed how we use the house. Our project manager was on site almost every day and handled the permits without us lifting a finger. Workmanship is excellent and they finished a week early. Couldn’t be happier with LeCut!!!
We couldn't be happier with our experience working with LeCut Construction. Yari, Luis and the whole team were great to work with throughout the process. They responded quickly to every question, concern or comment we had every step of the way. They completely remodeled both our bathrooms and we love how they both turned out.
Saratoga has been characterized by its silent sophistication, expansive residential avenues, and well established neighborhoods surrounding downtown Saratoga, West Valley College, and foothills on Highway 9. Most houses have unique architectural designs and take up prime pieces of land where location and personality are a consideration. Our team appreciates why homeowners in Saratoga tend to consider expansion as being a wise decision that provides them with the space without the need to notice an imbalance and interfere with the beauty of their interiors and environment.
The climatic conditions of the area are warm, dry summer, mild winter, and constant sun exposure in most of the year. These conditions affect the ability of upper levels to store heat and to circulate air. The second additions to our stories will be made keeping in mind the insulation performance of the buildings, ventilation planning, and the management of heat, so that the new living spaces will be comfortable, efficient and well adapted in the Saratoga environment.
Second Story Additions That Feel Like Part of the Original Home
The second story must be designed so that it appears and feels as a part of the house. Our team aims at preserving the architectural continuity such that rooflines, exterior surface and window location do not conflict with the current design.
The interior comfort is also vital. There is a close attention to natural light, ceiling height, and air flow in order to avoid the accumulation of heat and a comfortable environment. The outcome is a second level that will be seamlessly integrated with the original home and aid daily life.
Second Floor Additions That Enhance Property Value
We examine the foundations, the framing, and supporting load bearing elements to ensure that the home is capable of supporting vertical expansion. The buildings in Saratoga are of a great variety to age and construction type and, therefore, this step is necessary to stay safe and long.
Construction Techniques in Favor of Long-term Value
Durability is given utmost importance at all construction stages. From framing systems to roofing systems, any element is chosen to respond to long-term functionality and structural integrity.
Climate-Responsive Construction
The heat in the summer months in San Jose demands the use of materials that do not expand thermally and materials that do not be affected by the sun. Our houses also have sophisticated insulation and ventilation measures aimed at minimizing the accumulation of heat in the upper floor. The consequence is the second level, which remains cool, effective and comfortable.

We Design Second Story Additions for Comfort, Function, and Flow
Not just building the second story is enough to achieve success but coordination, monitoring and planning are needed. Our department handles the procedure of preliminary assessment till the end analysis taking note of every single detail.
- Proper planning that was in line with Saratoga building requirements and design standards.
- The structural analyses that are done prior to vertical expansion.
- The roofing systems and insulation chosen to control the sun exposure and heat.
- Constant coordination and regular reporting of progress during construction.
This systematic method of operation facilitates quality control and foreseeable schedules. The new level is ensured to be long-term comfortable and valuable with final inspections that ensure that it is structurally, climatically, and design-wise satisfactory.
Constructions in Saratoga Climate Conditions
Regular sun exposure and warmth are a factor that affects the choice of materials. We also use the materials which will withstand the heat stress, and thermal flow, that will in the long run protect the investment. Structural preparedness can be ensured early and the second floor additions can proceed with stability and confidence.
Such a cautious assessment can only save the available space and still be able to add more space in a responsible manner. The outcome is a growth that improves overall property value and ensures safety and performance in the long-term.
Custom Second Story Solutions for Any Home
There is no standard two-story home in Saratoga and any addition to the second story has to be customized. The design of our team achieves individualistic solutions that capture the structure, style and layout of each home and meets the specific demands of the household. We start by doing an in-depth evaluation of the current home to find out what structural capacity and designs can be done.
Based on it, layouts are drawn to enhance movement, make the most of the available space and to balance the existing level with the added one. Individual planning will enable the second story to be natural and not unnatural.
