What Are Roof Extensions?
Roof extensions involve adding new roofing structures to existing homes. This can include extending the roofline to create additional living space, such as bedrooms or sunrooms, or enhancing outdoor areas with covered patios. The process typically involves careful planning and design to ensure that the new structure complements the existing architecture while adhering to local building regulations.
