The Unseen Strength: Why Timber Trusses and Frames are Crucial for Your Roof

Every sturdy roof relies on a strong framework underneath. This is where timber trusses and traditional cut timber roof frames come in. These structural components are literally the skeleton of your roof, taking the weight of tiles or slates, insulation, and even snow, directing it safely down to your building's walls. We use high-quality timber, meticulously assembled to provide unwavering support. Whether it’s a modern building or an older property, the right timber roof design is key to its longevity and safety. We make sure your roof has the solid base it needs.

Who We Are

Choosing Your Roof Skeleton: Engineered Trusses or Traditional Cut Timber?

At M. Woodward Roofing, we work with both main types of timber roof construction to meet your specific project needs.

  • Engineered Roof Trusses: These are triangular, pre-fabricated sections of timber, often made in a factory and delivered ready to install on site. They are incredibly efficient, helping us to put your new roof on quickly and cost-effectively. They are designed using advanced engineering principles to provide excellent structural support with minimal waste. We use these extensively for new builds and extensions where speed and precision are paramount.
  • Traditional Cut Timber Roofs: For more complex roof designs, unique architectural features, or older buildings requiring a sympathetic approach, we expertly cut and assemble timber on site. This method allows for bespoke roof shapes, intricate detailing, and can be perfect for loft conversions where you want to create usable space. This type of construction relies on classic carpentry skills, which our team proudly possesses. We work with you to design the best solution for your project.

Our Precise Process for Building Your New Timber Roof

Getting your timber roof structure right is all about precision and planning. When you choose M. Woodward Roofing, here's what you can expect:

  1. Initial Consultation & Design: We start by talking through your plans, whether it's for a new building, an extension, or a re-roofing project. We consider your building's specifications and your design aspirations.
  2. Structural Assessment: We carefully review the load-bearing requirements and dimensions. For engineered trusses, we order them precisely to size. For cut roofs, we calculate and mark out all timber pieces.
  3. Meticulous Assembly On-Site: Our skilled team then gets to work. For trusses, we lift and securely fix each one, creating the uniform roof shape. For cut roofs, we carefully cut and join each timber member – rafters, purlins, and joists – constructing the frame piece by piece right there on your site.
  4. Quality Control: At every stage of the construction, we double-check our work. We make sure all connections are strong, the structure is perfectly level, and it complies with all current building regulations. This attention to detail guarantees a robust and safe roof.
