Vaulted ceilings can be a great feature to an extension or sometimes incorporated into an existing property.
Some older properties possess fantastic original trusses and rafters that are often hidden over years by flat ceilings and roof structures. As seen in series 5 episode 2 of George Clarke’s Old House New home where the period gatehouse cottage had its original rafters exposed to create a fantastic high ceiling living area.
Additionally within a new build property or home extension adding a vaulted ceiling can provide a great design detail and the feeling of open space.
There are a few considerations that need to be explored before you embark on a vaulted ceiling.
At Upright Construction we have worked on a number of projects which have successfully included a vaulted ceiling both in new build properties, house renovations, and extension projects, click here to view an example of our work.
