Attic Transformations
New Roof To Complete The Look
When you think of your house, do you see it as one room or a series of rooms? Whether the answer is the former or latter can depend on many factors. If you are thinking about creating an additional living space in your home, consider looking into how to create two stories within just one house by using existing walls and floors and all this with the help of ATS Exteriors & Roofing contractors. The attic makes for an excellent place to use as another story because its ceiling height allows for plenty of headroom without having to worry about anything else like stairs which will take up valuable square footage. As long as there’s enough support beams already installed throughout the entire structure (which should be checked before any construction begins), then adding extra flooring won’t cost much at all compared with building out from scratch!
The first thing to do with any attic is to get rid of the layers and layers of insulation that are in there. A good number for most attics is between 12-16 inches, which means you’ll need at least twice as much to take out! It’s also important not to confuse this type with fiberglass batting insulation because it can be extremely hazardous if inhaled or makes contact with skin; moisture can make it difficult when removing, so gloves should definitely be worn while handling these materials.
After all material is removed from the space (if necessary), adding more flooring like wood planks would be a great idea since they will last longer than standard plywood sheets. This isn’t too expensive either compared to other options on the market but still give a great deal of strength and durability.
When it comes time to make a final decision on the type of flooring, be sure to check with your local home improvement store or contractor for recommendations because they might have some suggestions you never even thought about before! With all this in mind, now is the perfect time to take advantage of National Roofing Month by getting a new roof installed as well. This will give an extra feeling that everything from top-to-bottom has been transformed into something completely different!
