Roofs, floors and first fix carpentry

Cut roofs, roof trusses, floor joists, bargeboards and canopies for extensions and new builds.

First fix is the joinery nobody sees once the plaster goes on, and the part everything else depends on. A roof that's out of line shows in the tiles. Joists that aren't level show in every floor and door above them.

I frame cut roofs on extensions, fix roof trusses on new builds, set out and strap floor joists, and fit fascias, bargeboards and timber canopies.
