This space could be your gold mine; it can be turned into an extra bedroom, bathroom, gym, den or office. In considering this project, the following list will help you to make decisions about your future living space:


-


Local building codes and requirements need to be reviewed


-


The existing structure needs to be examined for leaks and wet or damp spots (moisture is the key to mold control)


-


Engineering inspections determine structural soundness of existing floors and walls to properly support the new room and it’s planned contents


-


Most building codes require 7’-6” minimum finished ceiling height for more than 50% of the floor area. Adding appliances and equipment such as a furnace or water heater may require advanced floor and space planning


-


Dormers, which are a projection of the sloped roof trusses, will increase headroom making more usable space


-


New windows may be required by code, for example a bedroom may require larger windows needed in case of a fire


-


Temporary construction access needs to be considered if a new staircase is built


-


Ventilation and insulation are important aspects of the attic remodeling


-


Architectural and Design plans will be necessary to obtain permits and calculate a budget
