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.
