Roofers- how much can they do?
We are looking to lower the roof of our first floor rear extension by about 2 feet and then install a new roof on the 10X 12 space. Who should we be contacting for this work? A roofer, a contractor? Does anyone have a recommendation? Thanks.

Slopefarm-yes! Sounds like you did exactly what we want to do. We’ll have a contractor take a look and go from there…..I am betting that our extension was not built very well….Who did you use for that job?
Thanks.
To lower the roof, you are really talking about rebuilding its entire frame at a new height. When we renovated, there was an old extension and when we took the roof out to rebuild it lower, the walls collapsed (it wasn’t a proper extension). You need someone who does construction, not just someone who lays roofs, and you want to make sure you know what you are dealing with structurally before you do it. Also, are you lowering the roof so you can have a deck? If so, you should put thsoe jobs together.
