ABSTRACT:
Method of creating a dormer, under any weather conditions, of any length up to the length of an existing gable roof, and involves cutting through portions of an existing roof section to establish a new dormer roof to enable the old roof to be saved, thereafter elevating the newly established dormer roof with respect to the remaining portions of the existing roof structure, and constructing a first dormer wall section under the outer edge portion of the dormer roof substantially parallel to the length of the roof, and constructing second and third dormer wall sections under the side portions of the newly created dormer roof. Preferably, the step of elevating the cutout dormer roof includes cutting away upper portions of the rafters after they are rotatably coupled together with hinged brackets.
