What is a dormer addition? A dormer is a great way to convert a vaulted (angled) ceiling into a new room. These rooms are loft additions with a portion of the roof raised to create a full height ceiling.

Many high ceilings are just not high enough to take advantage of the wasted space above your head. Dormers are good news! A dormer is a cost effective solution and can help to convert the sloped ceiling space into a fully functional bedroom, loft, bathroom, bonus room and more.

Dormers come in various shapes and sizes and can have a variety of different roof styles. Gable dormer, shed roof dormer, etc...

If you have a vaulted ceiling (high on one side and low on the other) your house may qualify for this type of cost effective room addition.
