After a few short months TRULOFT and our enterprise level business systems became the number one loft addition provider in Oceanside CA. If you're looking for a remodeler Oceanside CA with the experience of more than a few decades you need look no further. Watch for more and more loft and room addition remodeling projects in 2026.
This is where your high ceiling comes in. We transform that unused, empty space into something more functional. There are many possibilities, such as: a new bedroom, open loft, office, home gym, game room, bonus room, even moving the laundry room upstairs with the bedrooms, etc. TRUPLANS covers the entire process: Design, Planning, and Construction. It's all in-house, so you don't have to worry about hopping from contractor to contractor for each phase. Our expert design team will create your future home through 3D renderings, designed for you - the homeowner - in mind. Even this isn't set in stone, though. If you find yourself not liking a certain design option, or have a change of heart, then our designers can re-arrange the 3Ds in real-time! Ultimately, the design process is collaborative, with the goal being to ensure that what you will get by the end of construction is what you want! The most remarkable thing about the construction process is how lightning-fast it is. Our standard high ceiling conversions take 2-3 weeks from start to finish. Slightly more complicated projects take 3-4 weeks. This is still miles ahead of what general contractors - who aren't specialized in this field - can offer.

Vaulted Ceiling Remodel Oceanside CA
Here's a home in Oceanside that might look familiar with the high vaulted ceiling over the entry, living room and dining room. A perfect pathway from the top landing begs the questions...is this space high enough to gain a new bedroom and perhaps a new loft addition as well. Surprisingly, the answer is yes. At first glance this might not make the building code as a bedroom, but depending on how the room is configured and laid out and especially how it is framed the geometry of this models is actually suitable for an entirely new room addition in the space above. The right remodeling designer teamed up with the right loft addition construction team that both have the most personal experience turning high ceilings into new rooms. Fair pricing, fast time frames and a beautiful design process in full 3D every time assures Oceanside homeowners can visualize the space before it is ever approved to build.

Architectural Designs Oceanside CA
Oceanside architectural plans and our remodeler partners come together to design yet another San Diego county masterpiece under the existing roof line. Sometime you can raise the roof, but sometimes you just don't have to. In this Oceanside home remodel the owners have the option of building within the existing high ceilings or they could raise the roof over part of the space to gain a more spacious room with more headroom.
Vaulted ceilings can be tricky at first glance, but to the experienced loft builder the measurements reveal the possible geometry of adding a new bedroom and man cave over the sloped roof. This home already had an approved permit to raise the entire roof on both ends of this space and they were getting some pretty enormous construction quotes even greater than $300,000.
According to that math our construction estimate and final contract is already $215,000 less than the other general contractor bids. Even with the dormer additions our construction proposal ends up around $160,000 less than raising the entire roof. That's because we are the #1 experts at this type of loft and dormer room addition construction not only in San Diego county, but through all of California and Arizona.

Before & 3D Design 360° Gallery
By producing these 360° image galleries, we are allowing both the homeowner and curious window-shoppers to plant their feet in this Oceanside, CA home. This is especially advantageous for the design images, as the new loft or dormer addition has not been built yet.
With vaulted ceilings comes an understandable concern - will my high ceiling conversion be worth it? Will it be too low to stand in?
We hope that presenting these 360° images helps alleviate some of those concerns. As you can see, the loft option is still perfectly functional. There is enough space for a couch and a media center, which for some is more than enough. It is still gained square footage, after all!
However, there is a smarter remodel option - a DORMER ADDITION.
The dormer addition will maximize the amount of headroom that area will allow without building the roof upwards. While that may be a desirable option, a roof rebuild will cost significantly more - we're talking $100,000+ in this case. In this scenario, we feel a dormer remodel is the right pick. You get vastly superior headroom and natural lighting while still keeping the cost down.
We can't wait to begin building this project. This home is nearing the end of the design phase, so the real work begins soon!

Oceanside Project Update – A Major High Ceiling Conversion Ahead!
We just kicked off a major project in Oceanside, and this one is packed with upgrades!
This home has a huge high ceiling above the living room — the perfect opportunity to build upward. We’ll be converting that empty space into a brand-new bedroom with a closet and bathroom.
But that’s just the start:
• The existing hallway bathroom is getting expanded.
• A new second-floor laundry room is being added right next to the new bedroom.
• The old first-floor laundry room? That’s becoming a practical new mudroom.
• And both existing bedrooms are receiving a closet modification, converting them into a walk-in closet.
Once complete, the home will gain valuable square footage, better storage, and a much more functional layout.
📸 Check out the gallery above for before photos and a sneak peek at the 3D designs showing exactly how this transformation will look!

New Loft Coming in 2026!
A huge open-to-below space above the dining room? That is a perfect candidate for a high ceiling conversion! This type of remodel is unique, because there isn't an existing floor space to build into. This also affords a great amount of flexibility when it comes to options.
There's many possible rooms and room configurations when there is this much empty space in their high ceiling. In this case, we are adding a new open loft. While straight-forward, there's some optional configurations that have been presented to the homeowners.
Instead of an open loft, they can opt for an entirely new bedroom, complete with a closet. Going further than that, they can also opt for a hallway loft that serves as an entrance to the new bedroom.
The homeowners decided to go for the simplest option - a spacious new open loft, which will serve as a secondary media room for the family on the second floor! Check out the video below to see these design ideas unfold in jaw-dropping photorealism!

TRULOFT Designs - New Open Loft
This home's open-to-below is about to transform in a big way! With our new series - TRULOFT Designs - you get to see these changes unfold in not just standard 3D renderings, but in stunning photorealism!
That vacant lot above the dining room is going to be repurposed into a cozy open loft. The amount of extra space that will be gained above cannot be overstated. This new room addition will serve as a secondary media room for the family that is much closer to their bedrooms. Retaining the windows in this new loft space provides a nice, welcoming view of the neighborhood from above.
The downstairs also boasts changes. With the new loft comes a new ceiling directly below it - in this case, above the dining room. This new ceiling will help dampen the ambient echo that is currently present in the room. In addition to that, the homeowners will find that their improved dining area will be much easier to adequately illuminate. Having a reflective surface that is much closer to the floor, along with the newly installed recessed lights, allows both natural and artificial light to be much more effective.
Thanks to the video and design visuals, the homeowners already know what they are gaining with their home remodel. This project is moving out of the design phase, and the CALOFT team is poised to begin constructing this dream loft addition!

OCEANSIDE ADU with LOFT ADDITION
A unique combination when we pair an accessory dwelling unit with a loft. This is technically a single story ADU but with a little help from above. 400 sq ft first floor studio style ADU with a non-habitable loft space, great for storage and hanging out reading at the window bench.

Would you like to meet our General Contractor Oceanside CA partners?
CALOFT has two principal owners, Luis Salcido and Aaron Hernandez. The rest of the team is part of the family business. Our loft addition Oceanside journey began in Santa Ana over 22 years ago when Luis and Aaron worked for my brother-in-law Mark. Mark was a general contractor who parted ways from The Loftcrafters Inc in 2004 and started his own construction business turning high ceilings into new rooms. That's when I began and met Luis and Aaron. They were the premier construction crew who also worked at Loft Crafters in their startup years and eventually left and worked with Mark building high ceiling conversions. Mark eventually retired from building loft additions and Luis, Aaron and myself continued with our two new brands. TRULOFT by Truplans Inc is the high ceiling conversion design and engineering experts and CALOFT is the general contractor experts that have the most experience in Oceanside CA retrofitting new room additions inside the high ceiling spaces found in so many San Diego County homes. The past 22 years have been an amazing journey turning high, vacant, empty ceilings into fantastic new rooms for homeowners wishing to stay in their belowed home. The Loftcrafters was their beginnings. Today, CALOFT is the general contracting masterclass in high ceiling conversions. No one does it better, cleaner and more beautiful than CALOFT for Oceanside residents. Thank you Luis and Aaron for 22 years and running of nothing but amazing excellence!

Greetings from The Loft Dog in Oceanside CA
Have you ever wondered what the thought was behind the high ceilings in your home? If you were designing your dream home would you have sketched a vast area of emptiness to make your house appear bigger or would you have just added a few rooms and actually made your home bigger? Although those ceilings give you a great open look and feel they are be made much more useful. Not for flying drones or playing basketball in the house, but for more living space. I'm just a dog so I'm not your family bird that might get the chance to actually get some exercise up there. I'd much prefer a place to take a nap. If your Oceanside home has an open-to-below space somewhere inside why not use your imagination and think about how you would use that space?
