What is an Attic Truss?

An attic, or 'room in roof' truss, is a type of roof truss that maximises usable space within a home by incorporating an open, liveable area in the attic. Unlike a standard truss which features webbing within its structure, an attic truss removes this and increases the timber sizes to compensate, leaving you with a habitable space to convert into a bedroom, bathroom, office or simply an additional storage space. Not only do attic trusses vastly increase the livable space within your home, but also can increase energy efficiency and boost your property's value. If we could have it our way, every new home would have attic trusses, because who doesn't love more space?

"From start to finish, incredibly helpful and easy to deal with. 3D view really helped visualise what it was going to look like built, the team managed to move the delivery forward to suit my schedule, the truck driver was so pleasant and seemed genuinely interested in what we were building. And the laminated plans that came with the delivery were the icing on the cake." — James Hancocks

What are the benefits?

  • Habitable attic 🏡

    Unlike standard/fink trusses, attic trusses allow you to utilise your attic space. Make it into another bedroom, an office, bathroom, storage area or, within reason, whatever you fancy!

  • Cost-effective 💰

    Although initially more expensive, attic trusses can work out cheaper in the long run, as they dramatically increase the usable space of your home. Compared to an extension, this can be 40% cheaper.

  • Quick to install 💨

    Compared to a traditional cut roof, attic trusses can be installed in as little as a day.

  • Strong 💪

    Attic trusses, with their triangular design, are stronger than traditional methods and will span further without supporting walls.

  • High quality 🖥️

    Trusses are designed in specialist software and made in a purpose-built factory, ensuring millimetre perfect accuracy every time.

  • More site space 🔨

    Rather than having to store vast amounts of timber on site, trusses can be delivered just in time for installation.
