2.34m ceiling - Options?
My first post here everyone, be gentle!
I have done quite a bit of reading on this and am still unsure on the best way to proceed.
I have two full renovated rooms on the bottom floor of my Queenslander, however the ceiling heights come in at 2.34m, obviously below legal height.
My thoughts now are -
- I have seen some people possibly apply for relaxations to get these approved, possible/likely?
- Could I remove the ceiling and treat the floor above as the ceiling, leaving the joists exposed? I see there are different statements around ~50% of the ceiling must be above 2.4m etc? Do some inspectors accept this?
Further to this, as this is my first home, what exactly is the process to applying for a room to be approved as habitable?
Other ideas I toyed with were replacing joists with smaller options, but definitely getting into the more expensive territory... Thankyou!
