Hello folks i have a rather tough question.
Raising a garage roof 4 feet.
15 00 20 00 finishing the interior.
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.
I really want to get a lift 4 post most likely for storage but i obviously don t have the ceiling height.
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.
3 25 4 50 framing the dormer.
Removing roof material and cutting the roof deck.
19 00 32 00 siding and roofing materials installed.
This shalimar fl house remodel has gone through so many changes but it will all be worth it.
I haven t measured but the ceiling in the garage is roughly 9 ft.
However above the garage a frame roof is all storage.
Walls are 2x4 i have no insulation or drywall and the siding is about to be replaced.
Bolt some extensions onto your former anchor bolts to bring them to the new height.
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.
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.
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.
There are pull down stairs that go up to a storage area that covers the entire garage.
Roof lifting costs depend on the total area being lifted the existing construction details the original and required heights and more.
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.
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.
