Transforming an attic into one
or txvo rooms on a do-it-yourself
basis is the most economical xxay
fo add living space and value to
the property. j
Many home owners find they
can achieve decorative results at
lowest cost by using v arious Mas-
onite panels, which lumber y ards
have in a variety of textures.
Take into consideration tram- !
ing and other factors before !
starting such a project. Your
lumber dealer can give you valu-
able advice. Make cpitain that
your framing is strong enough
and properly aligned.
Ceiling and walls of the new
room, of course, should be insu-
lated. Be sure to provide venti-
