What’s A Dormer? | Episode 104 #renovation

Welcome to the Fabling Built Podcast!  In this episode, Teimon Phillips and Casey Fabling discuss the critical question of what a dormer is and why it's important. A dormer is essentially a bump-out in the roof that increases headroom, and square footage and adds light to attic spaces. The term 'dormer' comes from 'dormitory', a sleeping room, as people used to sleep in the attic. Adding a dormer is one of the fastest ways to add square footage to a home and can be used to create unique spaces like bedrooms or bathrooms. It also changes the house's profile on the outside, making it stand out and increasing its uniqueness. Listen to the episode to learn more about the different types of dormers and their benefits.
