Truss Roof
Construction
Prefabricated timber trusses, pre-designed and pre-calculated for loads, delivered to site and installed to form a robust, fast and cost-effective roof structure across Dorset and Hampshire.
What It Is
Fast, Engineered Roof Structures
Truss roof construction involves the use of prefabricated timber trusses that are pre-designed and pre-calculated for loads, delivered to the site, and installed to form robust structures according to planned specifications. Each truss is lifted and braced to a specification, securely fixed together ensuring strength and stability.
Clients opt for truss roof construction because it is a cost-effective solution that saves labour time compared to traditional cut roofs. This method is particularly advantageous for large-scale projects and offers efficient design options with 3D CAD models for installers to visualise the end result.
The Process
How We Build Your Roof
A planned, supervised process that ensures every truss is fitted accurately and securely.
Lifting the trusses into place on site.
Fitting them according to a detailed plan and ensuring they are level and aligned.
Bracing the trusses together for added stability.
Preparing corners for traditional hand-cut rafters.
Nailing and bracing the trusses following a specific schedule to ensure structural integrity.
Materials & What’s Included
High-Quality Treated Timber
The materials used in truss construction typically include high-quality treated timber, which ensures durability and strength. The trusses are manufactured off-site and delivered ready for installation, streamlining the construction process.

Why Trusses
The Benefits of Truss Roofs
Saves Labour Time
A cost-effective solution that saves labour time on site compared to traditional cut roofs, speeding up the build programme.
Engineered for Loads
Each truss is pre-designed and pre-calculated for loads before it ever reaches site, ensuring a robust, reliable structure.
Suited to Large-Scale Projects
Particularly advantageous for large-scale projects, where speed and consistency across many trusses matter most.
3D CAD Visualisation
Efficient design options with 3D CAD models let installers visualise the end result before a single truss is lifted.
High-Quality Treated Timber
Manufactured off-site using high-quality treated timber, which ensures durability and strength throughout the structure.
Delivered Ready to Fit
Trusses arrive manufactured and ready for installation, streamlining the construction process and reducing site waste.
