Hello,
I have a question: It is a house, built in 1970, completely renovated in 2008. So far, the house consists of a basement, one floor, and an attic. The house measures 14.70m by 7.73m. The problem: The roof structure in the middle (i.e., the gable) has a height of 1.7 meters. So it is not possible to live there.
Now my question: If you remove the timbers and put up a new one, what would the approximate cost be? Are dormer windows a good option or should it be a flat roof instead? The house is located at the foot of the Black Forest, but there have never been excessive snow problems here.
Of course, I have a lot more information that I do not want to simply put on the internet.
I would be happy if some people would share their experiences with me. I also understand that a cost estimate can’t be exact, but maybe it can be determined with 75% accuracy.
Thank you very much, Ram_master_g
P.S.: I am only considering raising the attic here, not the bathroom, walls, etc. (I know what that costs). And yes, the foundation can support this!!
