With our expert craftsmanship and attention to detail, we ensure that your dormer addition blends seamlessly with your home’s architecture and boosts its value.

What Are Dormers?

Dormers are structural additions that extend from a sloped roof, creating additional space and allowing for windows to be installed. They can dramatically transform both the interior and exterior of your home. There are several types of dormers to choose from, depending on your home’s style and your personal preferences:

Types of Dormers:

Gable Dormer: One of the most popular styles, featuring a pitched roof that forms a triangular shape. Ideal for traditional homes, gable dormers add headroom and light to your space.

Shed Dormer: With a single sloping roof, shed dormers provide maximum headroom and are often used for larger spaces like bedrooms or home offices.

Hip Dormer: Featuring a roof with three sloping sides, hip dormers offer a unique look and excellent structural stability.

Eyebrow Dormer: A curved, low-profile dormer that adds a distinctive architectural feature to your home.

Flat Roof Dormer: Simple and modern, flat roof dormers are often used to maximize space in attics and lofts.
