Another question------extending roofline?
Comments (5)Only if you reconstruct the roof entirely to extend a gable. The hip is at it's lowest point already. Bringing it down further would have you hitting your head, and reducing the slope of an already marginally sloped roof isn't really practical.

Maybe you should buy a house that is more appealing to you from the beginning rather than spending 100K to remodel a 50K house....See MorePlease help...is this a crazy roofline

I looked over a listing of Sears homes and it does not appear to be one of those. It was built between 1930-40....See More- 2 years ago
