This shalimar fl house remodel has gone through so many changes but it will all be worth it.
Raising a garage roof 4 feet.
If it is a detached garage and what we call western platform framing 2x4 framing sole plate top plate then detach the earth quake anchors and go along jacking up the structure a 2x4 width at a time every 4 ft until you reach the desired height.
I haven t measured but the ceiling in the garage is roughly 9 ft.
The major change is that we lifted the roof 2 feet.
This is my workshop and i d like to raise it up an additional 4 feet.
Since pitch is the rise over a 12 inch run divide the run by 12 to.
There are pull down stairs that go up to a storage area that covers the entire garage.
15 00 20 00 finishing the interior.
The total run is the distance from the peak to the edge of the roof which in this case is the total width divided in half which is equal to 10 feet or 120 inches.
However above the garage a frame roof is all storage.
It has a pitched roof using modern w style trusses and concrete tiles.
I just had the roof redone after a major hail storm several months ago.
19 00 32 00 siding and roofing materials installed.
Removing roof material and cutting the roof deck.
50 00 110 00 the higher cost per square foot to frame side and roof dormers compared to additions is due to their smaller size.
Walls are 2x4 i have no insulation or drywall and the siding is about to be replaced.
I really want to get a lift 4 post most likely for storage but i obviously don t have the ceiling height.
Roof lifting costs depend on the total area being lifted the existing construction details the original and required heights and more.
While the average range of costs varies widely 5 20 per square foot it is far less expensive than traditional construction expansion and rebuild options.
The major downside to it is the height of the door opening at about 1 9m and the floor to ceiling height of approx 2 4m.
Hello folks i have a rather tough question.
Bolt some extensions onto your former anchor bolts to bring them to the new height.
