Our Services
We provide the following services in Long Island:
Dormers
A dormer is a structural roof expansion that gives formerly unused space additional headroom and natural light. They are a popular choice to increase the living space in a house. The most prevalent types of dormers include gabled dormers, bathroom dormers, shed dormers, or bedroom dormers. They can be created in several ways to blend in with your home's current roofline and style, or they can be altogether different! It all depends on your preference.
Often, it can be a little intimidating to add dormers and extensions, especially if you've never done it before. Many don't even know where to begin. However, when you decide to go with us, we handle everything for you—explaining the steps and assisting you all the way through. With our vast training and expertise, we at Universal Roofing and Chimney can offer extensive know-how to make your home more aesthetically pleasing and functional for your lifestyle. Further, our architects can also draw up the plans and expedite the building permit application process.
Popular Dormer Styles for Your Home
Although dormers come in multiple forms, there are two primary lengths to select. First is a partial dormer that only extends partially around the house. The second is a full dormer that takes up the whole second story.
Gabled Dormer
The roof of a gabled dormer has a peak at the top and slopes downward. Although gabled complements various architectural styles, it is popular in Tudor, Queen Anne, Victorian, and Gothic Revival homes.
There are numerous gable dormer designs and roof slopes to choose from. The most frequently utilized dormer is the "doghouse" one. This adorable addition looks fantastic when placed vertically atop a sloped roof given its small roof.
Shed Dormer
The roof of a shed dormer is single, flat, and slopes in the direction of the main roof's eave line. Such dormers can expose a sizable portion of a roof that had been blocked off. They look great on homes designed in the Bungalow, Craftsman, and Colonial Revival styles.
Hip Dormer
Three sloping planes that meet at the ridge are characteristics of hip dormers. You discover them on homes with pitched main roofs, such as those built in the French Eclectic, Prairie, and Shingle styles.
Eyebrow Dormer
True to its name, eyebrow dormers have a precise shape. Typically, Richardson Romanesque and Victorian shingle homes have these gently arched dormers.
Alternative Dormer Designs
Beyond these choices, there are even more styles available. For instance, you can go for arched-top dormers, flared dormers, recessed dormers, and different gable forms. Likewise, you can add a dormer to the bedroom and bathroom. Regardless of the style, dormers will surely enhance your home's appeal and functionality.
Home Additions
Home additions are a popular way for homeowners to expand and enhance their living spaces to better suit their needs and preferences. Whether it's adding an extra bedroom to accommodate a growing family, constructing a sunroom to let in more natural light, or building an in-law suite for aging relatives, home additions provide the opportunity to customize a house and make it truly one's own. The process typically involves careful planning, securing the necessary permits, and working with skilled contractors to ensure the new structure seamlessly integrates with the existing home in both form and function.
Our Home Addition services include:
Full Story Additions
A second-floor extension of this kind requires removing the existing roof structure and any outside walls. In most cases, a new floor frame is constructed over the preexisting ceiling beams of the first floor to create a new second-floor structure. You can add the new second-story addition to an existing cape or ranch-style home.
Partial Second Story Additions
These additions are frequently used to expand an existing one-story structure, such as an attached garage or family room. For your expanding family, popular partial second-story additions include a master suite, a master bathroom, a cozy sitting area, or an extra bedroom.
There are numerous kinds of house additions to take into account. Your choice of type is dependent upon several factors. The two most crucial variables are your budget and the amount and type of additional space you require, such as extra bathrooms, bedrooms, or a playroom for the kids. It is important to consider that there are options available to choose from as additions come in two types.
Home EXTENSIONS
A home is a long-term commitment. But, sometimes, you need to make changes to your area. For instance, you have an older child returning from college, or you need additional space for a new baby. Perhaps you would like to add a library, office, or another bedroom or living area. Or you might want to build a room above your garage or a sunroom.
In general, less disturbance to your current home occurs when you build a home extension. Mostly, they are constructed "outside" of your current house and joined to the existing portion of the house shortly before it is finished.
