DAMAGED TRUSS

Damaged Truss or Timber Evaluation

Roof trusses and structural timber play a key role in maintaining the stability and integrity of a home’s roof structure. When these components are damaged, altered, or repaired outside of standard methods, questions often arise during inspections and real estate transactions.

This damaged truss and timber evaluation assesses observed conditions during inspection, reviews prior repairs or modifications, and helps determine whether the structure appears to be performing as intended. If not, an engineer provides framing solutions necessary to restore structural integrity. The goal is to clarify structural concerns, support underwriting decisions, and help reduce unnecessary delays while prioritizing safety.
