Could do with a timber bolted in web beam both sides and structural joist hangers to stop dormer movement in future plasterboard cracking etc with wind deflection.
How wide is that dude? We are literally just waiting for an architect to come out because we want 2 rooms and a small shower room but spoken to one one last week and he said it would be tight and wanted £200 to have a look, I’ve got a 37.5 m2 space. Mate if you did Rugby area I would have got you to look at it. Good work pal 👍
Awesome work you and the crew do. I discovered your videos a few days ago and have enjoyed watching your work. Too bad you are not in my area because I would love to work with you on adding a lift in my house. Do you happen to have any recommendations for any company in the Seattle Washington area which does the same level of quality work you do?
Nice mate I've subscribed. Good energy and like your video's I've got a dormer like this to do myself. (More of a 2nd fix chippy) Is a steel necessary for ridge or is there an alternative? Did you just go straight through the gable to get that in? I must go back on your videos in the evenings to check them out 👍
Yeah most case a dormer would need a ridge beam. We normally have spliced spaced for our steels so means we can make small hole in the roof carry through and install from the inside. Avoiding having to damage brick work.
As it’s a warm roof we don’t need the ventilation. And by cutting it flush means we can clad up higher make our own drip hight up and use a small fascia. As we have the depth of insulation and joists making need like a 300-400 fascia that looks to big in my options
great job

Sorry we don’t cover that far. Would need a minimum head hight if around 2.6m for this one. And it’s 9m wide.

What happens if you have wet weather? Do you have coverings ready?
We just don’t build dormers on really wet days.
That sole plate on the end check on top of the tile battens !! Did you get away with that re building control ?
Yes we never had a problem doing it that way. We then build a supporting wall below the rafter below.
What's the average cost for something lile this?
Varies massively. But as an average cost now days £45k plus vat upwards
Could I ask what subfloor is being used? Thanks!
Did you have to put in steals for something like this?
Yes 🙌🏼
Hi mate on the dormer flat roof why did the lads cut the flat roof rafters flush with the external top plate? No soffit or drip ? Cheers mate

Boring question.... How do you fix your flat roof ply when insulation is above the joists? Cheers.
Longer screws ?
We use 200mm screws bud.
Will the post be sitting on steel or timber mate?
In the gables it’s on timber posts but the Center one that sits on spine beam will be a 90 x 90 metal post.
Is this is a timber frame house ?
No not this one. Just the inside gables are timber as fast for the developers.
@@djmooreloftconversionspeci458 have you got any videos of doing a timber framed loft conversion with a dormer ?
@@0791name yes if you look through there is a recent video on a timber framed house
