I have a bombard of a 2 1/2 story further upon my residence (2 stories with dormers). The roof tiles tiles is accomplished as well as a windows have been in though zero else is done. Just found out a city office building codes will usually concede 1 1/2 stories. What is a easiest approach to mislay a single complete turn of a residence but carrying to idle a roof?
You can’t. The only thing you can do is to carefully dismantle the second floor so you can save the materials. Out of curiosity, how did this plan get approved if it’s a violation of the codes? If the inspector signed off on your permit application, consider taking it to the Board of Appeals before you start demolition. You may be able to get a variance. Hope this helps.
