"Great work, highly recommended!! Apex renovated all of the bathrooms in our home down to the studs and completely redid them for us, one of which included moving a wall and layout change to expand. From beginning to end, Mike and his team were a pleasure to work with. We received detailed cost estimates that were accurate and competitive with other contractors we spoke to. The level of protection that was installed was top notch. We did not have any dust in areas outside of the work area and Mike and his team were always careful to clean and keep the protection clean which was fantastic. The quality of the work was excellent, I couldn’t find a single issue when work was complete. Mike did a great job communicating with us on decisions we had to make and the schedule for the work throughout the project. We love the result of our bathrooms and had a great experience working with Apex!"

Second story addition building services FAQs

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.
