Cost-effective & Flexible Solution

Off-site manufactured roof trusses are the most widely used form of roof framing in the UK as they provide a cost-effective and flexible solution. Trusses are not only now “the norm” for simple roof structures but are also increasingly seen as the ideal method of framing to turn a complex architectural vision into a working roof structure. A roof formed using trusses can use up to 40% less timber than a traditional roof.

Roof systems hugely reduce the amount of time spent installing the structural elements of the roof compared to traditional build methods. Our speed of manufacture allows just-in-time delivery to the site and therefore negates the need for large storage space on site.
