Truss Roofing
If you are thinking of extending upwards in your loft you may well need to consider the roof trusses. Depending on the type of truss, they may need replacing with attic room trusses to accommodate the space for a room whilst still spreading the load of the roof safety.
We can design and install new trusses should they be needed.
