questions about adding a dormer to house
we are looking into expanding over the garage...
1. when are dormers typically done season wise?
2. do you need to get a drawing/permits before you apply for a home equity line o credit? or even refinance for this purpose?
Thanks!

Re: questions about adding a dormer to house
Did you check with an architect if the garage foundation is strong enough for a second floor?

Re: questions about adding a dormer to house
If your home is going to be open to the elements, then spring is probably the best time (you won't be freezing or sweating from heat, but there is more chance of rain). If the weather doesn't concern you and you don't need to pour a foundation, then anytime of year is fine.
The bank doesn't usually care why you want a home equity line of credit or why you want to refinance, but you may want to have your plans in order and some estimates before you go for a new loan, to make sure that you will have sufficient funds to finish the project.
