The above prices are an average price for a body with or without ridge increase, the exact final price, of course, depends on several factors.
The above price is the price of a roof structure made of wood. Wood is the most economical way to make this construction that adds an extra floor.
You can also opt for a stone structure, but that has a number of complications. Stone is heavier, so the floors under the superstructure are heavily loaded. This may mean that additional reinforcement will be required. In addition, the stone is also more expensive than wood.
An advantage of stone construction is that, in most cases, it fits better with the current construction. Let’s talk about a roof structure. If you are looking for dormer costs, look at the page: the cost of a dormer.
Roof construction with a flat roof
A flat roof is, of course, ideal for drawing up a roof structure since the entire surface of the flat roof can be used for building.
A roof structure with a flat roof is often a custom prefabricated roof structure that is prematurely manufactured in the factory.
After building this, it can be hoisted in parts on your roof and so you are often wind and watertight within a day. In this way, the total construction only needs to take up to 3 days. Also, read the page ridge increase for a very economical solution.
A good example of a flat roof on which a superstructure is often placed in a garage. Because many garages are attached to a house, the first floor can often be extended with a roof structure on the garage.
Roof construction flat roof costs
The square meters die (m 2) of a roof structure determine the roof construction costs. You can assume that square meter costs, on average, about 1200 dollars. So, if you want to have a roof constructed 10 m 2 built, it will cost approximately $12,000, and if you want the construction of 20 m2, it will cost approximately $24,000. And you can imagine that a roof structure of 15 m2 is exactly in between.
The finish of the roof structure on the outside and inside is also decisive. The more luxurious the materials you choose, the more expensive the entire construction will cost. One way to save on this is to do the finishing (in whole or in part) yourself. Consider, for example, laying the floor and painting the walls.
The costs for roof construction on a garage are basically the same as the aforementioned prices. A requirement of this is that the foundation of the garage is strong enough to support another floor.
Finishing the roof structure
You have total control over the roof construction costs for the finish. This applies to the inside but also the outside of the superstructure. The finish has a major influence on the prices of a roof structure.
You can, of course, opt for extra skylights or an expensive wooden floor, but on the other hand, you can also opt for a cheaper laminate floor. The costs of finishing the exterior of the superstructure are also variable. There are beautiful but expensive stone strips. There is also beautiful siding, which is a lot cheaper.
If you want to save on costs, it is possible to have the bodywork delivered. When you choose a hull finish, the roof structure is not finished, which of course, saves costs. You will then have to take care of the finishing yourself.
An extra floor is worth it…
In most cases, an extra floor on your home ensures that the home is simply expanded by half or 1/3. After all, the surface of the superstructure is, in most cases, just as large as the underlying floors.
The reason is often chosen is that no space of the garden has to be used. Another opportunity is, of course, that there is no garden available to make a possible extension. In addition, the price for an extra floor on your home is, in most cases, not too bad.
Need a permit or not?
When installing a roof structure on your garage or roof of your house, in most cases, you need to apply for a permit. Obtaining the permit partly depends on the following points;
- The homes in the neighborhood
- The neighbors
- The municipality
- Privacy for the neighbors, think of any view.
- Roof-mounted garage (for a hobby room or extra bedroom)
