[QUOTE="Black2010, post: 15967093, member: 126428"] They haven't broke ground but all contracts are signed. We love the neighborhood, on a greenbelt lot with a nice (stocked) pond behind our fence line. Only real sticking point with the builder is their inability to help on this ask so I wouldn't bail for just this issue. I understand their concerns since they just build the same plans all the time and major changes can cause them potential issues, but was hopeful. I'd love to get it 10ft or higher but really, even 6 inches would help. The two cars I have for that spot measure at 8.5 feet when parked. I just need about 6 inches above that to allow for the lift to go high enough to get into the locks and about 6 inches for the door. I'm just hoping I'm not staring at $10K+ to get it done. I also think HOA is part of the issue as they have to approve elevations so a roof line change would be up to them which is another reason I'm really hoping to just raise the ceiling as much as possible without having to do major surgery on the house. I told my wife that I thought we could have someone come in and change the trusses their to line the roof more (like a vaulted ceiling). She politely told me that she loves me but I should check around as I'm not exactly an engineer. [/QUOTE]
