Professional rafter
framing, truss framing, and field framing including hip and valley
rafters.

Some rafters are framed only in special
area's such as valleys, dormers, and false gables. Also on
many trussed roof systems, there are valleys and crickets
that are framed in by hand or "field framed." In Illinois we
have framed many roofs, especially in the Belleville
area. Most had some rafter framing involved but many were
entirely hand framed. Also a lot of deck covers we hand
frame exposed cedar rafters for a rustic look. Call us for
any of your specialty timber framing and rafter needs in
southern Illinois. Our carpenters can hand frame virtually
any rafter application necessary.

Trusses are systems
specifically designed for use in things such
as floor framing and especially in roof
framing. They are engineered to specific
weight tolerances, and stress points. A
truss representative will come to your job
and specifically evaluate the needs of your
truss components. Carpenters familiar with
the use and application of such trusses are
required due to the specific requirements of
job applications. There are also hardware
enhancements that can be made to these
systems that will add strength and integrity
to your home. Lack of proper training in the
application of truss systems in Illinois can
lead to problems such as settlement, bouncy
floors, sagging ceiling, and as drastic as
system failure during inclement weather.
