Investment in dormer
If you are thinking that the only advantage of adding a dormer space is adding value to your house, no there are a lot more advantages. Here are some major advantages:
Extra space
There is a famous saying that a house is a house, whether small or large, but living in a small home with a growing family can be very irritating. Less space and more things ib the house can indeed make your house look like a mess. Not only the dormer provides you with extra storage space, but you can use it like living space. Consider, guests come to your house, and you need some extra space to relax or sleep. A dormer can be an ideal place to convert it into a cozy little living space.
Ventilation
A dormer can be an ideal thing for your home ventilation. A dormer space provides ventilation and natural light to your home. Dormer windows provide much more ventilation than the normal windows because the normal windows are mostly covered with trees. If you wake up and look out from your window, the normal view is of other houses, which is not perfect. A dormer can provide you with a good view, much needed natural light, and ventilation.
Better alternative to moving
The cost of moving is increasing every year, the reason for it is a solicitor fee and a rise in property value too. Moving can be a really bad idea if you can do remodeling to your house and increasing the available space for your family. Moving into a new house can bring a lot of problems. It is very stressful to do all the packing and being ready o adapt yourself to an entirely new community or neighborhood. A dormer extension to your house will let you live in the same house by increasing the living space. The cost of an extension to your house is pretty average also. Try considering a dormer to your house if you are facing storage problems.
