Title of Question: Attic addition

 

Name: Tom902    City: Conway

Question: My house has a "bonus room" left side attic with a half bath. I want to go further into the closet for more room this will require opening the wall and adding steps, about three feet, two steps in present room two on other side of wall changing the appearance of the Carolina room below (a diagonal in the ceiling). The attic was constructed with a truss system. Can I extend this present room into the attic.
