🏗️ NEW CUT ROOF COMPLETED 🏗️
A proper bit of craftsmanship on this one.
We’ve just completed a brand new cut roof on an extremely old outbuilding where nothing was straight, level, or standard. Every single rafter was individually measured, marked, and cut by hand to ensure the new ridge line flowed perfectly with the existing structure and maintained the character of the original building.
To achieve the required spans and structural support, we also manufactured and installed large queen trusses on-site, ensuring the roof was both structurally sound and sympathetic to the age of the property.
Projects like this are where traditional carpentry skills really come into their own. No off the shelf solutions, no shortcuts just careful measuring, expert craftsmanship, and attention to detail from start to finish.
If you’re planning an extension, renovation, loft conversion, or structural roof project, get in touch with our team today.
