Roof Truss Repair

What This Service Involves

Engineered trusses are a precise system, and even one compromised member can throw off how the entire roof carries its load in a Northwest home. Moisture from a long-standing leak, an ill-advised attic modification, or a heavy snow event can crack chords or loosen the plates that tie a truss together. Our crews evaluate the truss system, reinforce or repair damaged members with engineered solutions, and restore the designed load path. Because trusses are interdependent, we treat repairs as a structural priority rather than a cosmetic one.
