"Elite was excellent in the work they did on our bathroom remodel. Andre has specialists and we had Ramon and Maria, who have vast experience and did expert work every day until the job was completed. They helped, advised and listened to us. When one has workers in your home, safety is critical to our family. Andre assured us that his workers are honest and trustworthy and Ramon & Maria demonstrated that to us from day one. Also, they protected our bedroom and home from the dust that inevitably comes from this work. Ramon and Maria showed up on time every morning, and were diligent, honest and hardworking in the work they did. And by the way, the bathroom looks incredible. Thanks Elite!"

FAQs for second story addition building service projects in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Converting a vaulted ceiling into a second floor requires three to six months from planning to completion. The process begins with several weeks of design and engineering, followed by permit applications, which vary in processing time by location. 

Construction itself spans several months, including framing, systems installation, and finishing work. Weather conditions, contractor availability, and inspection schedules can all influence your project timeline.

Several factors could make your conversion challenging or impossible. Inadequate roof support structures, insufficient foundation capacity, or problematic truss configurations might require prohibitively expensive modifications. 

Some homes lack the minimum ceiling height (12 feet at the lowest point) needed for functional second-floor spaces. Building code restrictions in your area might also limit conversion possibilities, particularly in historic districts or homes with specific architectural designations.

Begin with professional assessments from both an architect and a structural engineer who will evaluate your home's specific characteristics. They'll examine existing framing, measure available headroom, assess load-bearing capacity, and identify potential obstacles like HVAC ducts or plumbing vents. 

These experts will also review local building codes to determine feasibility. Their preliminary analysis provides crucial information about structural requirements and potential limitations before you commit to the project.

Whether you'll need temporary housing depends on several factors, including the project's scope and your tolerance for construction disruption. Major structural work creates significant noise, dust, and potential utility interruptions that many families find challenging to live with. Safety concerns may also arise during certain construction phases. 

Some homeowners successfully remain by isolating the construction zone and establishing clear work schedules. Discuss living arrangements with your contractor early in the planning process to make informed decisions.
