When you order trusses online, you'll also receive all necessary clips and bracing timber, detailed drawings, a virtual 3D model to work from and calculations that you can submit to building control. Gable ladders are not included but can be added above.
Step 1: Measure Your Building
You can use our helpful video to learn how to measure your building ready for trusses. If you're unsure, give us a ring and we'll talk you through it. It only takes a few minutes.
Step 2: Place Your Order
Select your span, pitch and overhang (if required), then add any drawings you might have. Don't worry if you don't have any—we'll contact you if we need more information.
Step 3: We'll Phone You & Send a Design
Before even looking in the direction of a saw, we'll give you a ring to check all your measurements are correct. If everything looks good, we'll then send you our design for you to have a look through. If you need to make any amendments, we're always happy to do this.
Step 4: We'll Begin Manufacturing & Arrange Delivery
Once you've confirmed your order, we can begin manufacturing your trusses. One of our team will be in contact to arrange delivery on a day that suits you.
What Are The Benefits of Attic Trusses?
🏡 Habitable Space: Unlike a fink truss, an attic truss is specifically designed to provide a habitable room in its structure. This increases space, energy efficiency and often property value too.
⏰ Fast to Install: Attic Trusses can be delivered and installed the next day, if not the same day, allowing you to get your site water tight faster and reducing timber taking up space.
📋 Building Control Compliant: When you order attic trusses from us, we also provide the necessary calculations to send to building control, making the process as smooth as possible.
Whether you're a complete beginner with no knowledge of the industry building a small extension or a seasoned veteran constructing multiple homes, our designers will effortlessly turn your requirements into clear, lifelike designs, allowing you to view 3D models of your proposed project with our attic trusses in place. Our design team are on hand to assist you with every step of your project, from initial enquiry through to installation.
If you have a project that is a little too complex for online ordering, get in contact here and have a chat. We're a friendly bunch.
We have some of the best toys in the industry. We have invested over £2.5M in our brand new facility and have used almost 20 years of manufacturing experience to ensure it does exactly what we want. It’s the secret to turning your project around in as little as 5 days.
Our Saws
We run two Hundegger saws from Germany. These saws are truly incredible, allowing us to cut the timber for your project at an astonishing pace whilst achieving pin-point accuracy. The saws are fed directly from our design office and will optimise the use of every length of timber for minimal waste.
Assembling the Trusses
Once the timber components are cut, they move directly to one of our truss presses. Our skilled assemblers will set out your attic truss on the press with the assistance of a laser system—again, fed from our design office. The lasers minimise setup time whilst ensuring perfect accuracy every time. Once the truss is set, a jig is formed for multiple runs. Steel nail plates are then pressed into the timbers using 35 tonne presses to complete the roof truss.
Timber Quality
Even the timber we use is specific to roof trusses and Posi-Joists. It's sourced from Sweden, where the cold climate ensures the tree grows slow and straight, resulting in a higher quality and more consistent product. The grading is called TR26, and is unlikely to be found at any builders merchants.
