Can I remove my house’s second level in order to create a taller ceiling height in my living room?

Answered by Brett ~ February 6th, 2012 ~ No Comments »

is it possible to remove a second floor bedroom above the living room on the first floor to create a higher ceiling (vaulted, but not V shaped?) for the living room? A little more detail - the more the better! (optional): hi, i stumbled on your website after a google search looking for remodeling contractors...honestly, i just have a question and am not really looking to remodel for years to come, but one little thing has been bugging me and i'd just like to know an answer to it. I just recently bought a two story house in west jordan utah, well, its two stories and a basement, so three stories. it is a pretty big house, 4800 sq feet with approx 1500 sq feet on each floor. so naturally that means that all three stories are fully floored, and the house has no high ceilings over the family/great room on the first floor, and this gives it a cramped feeling even though the room itsself is pretty big. right above the great/family room is a bedroom, so i was wondering if it was possibl e to tear the bedroom above the family/great room on the second floor, like remove the floor of the bedroom and basically convert the family/great room on the first floor to a room with high ceilings (two story ceiling ). roughly estimated, how much would it potentially cost, assuming you've done this type of project before? is it even possible to remove a room on the second floor to create a "vaulted" room on the first floor? thank you for your time, jason Your Name and Location (city, state) (optional): west jordan utah
