Timber roof carpentry for Chichester projects.
Roof framing, rafters, joists and complex junctions set out against the current design, verified site conditions and a clearly defined structural scope.
Practical setting-out where the new roof meets the existing building.
Roof carpentry depends on more than individual timber sizes. Ridge positions, rafter geometry, bearing points, openings and junctions must work together and reflect what is actually found on site.
Sixes Carpentry completed a challenging roof tie-in in Chichester where the available information did not explain every existing condition. The work required careful verification and communication while keeping the issued design and structural responsibilities clear.
- Cut roofs, rafters, joists and trimmers.
- Roof extensions and defined existing-roof tie-ins.
- Setting-out from current architectural and structural information.
- Coordination of openings, bearings and follow-on requirements.
A made-to-measure cut roof built around difficult site conditions.
Out-of-square blockwork, delayed lintels and incomplete drawings were resolved through verified measurements, revised working details and careful on-site setting-out.
“What a great job they done! The team was so helpful and overcame issues we didnt even expect!”
Design information and real site conditions both matter.

Before structural timber work starts.
What roof carpentry can you undertake?
Suitable work includes timber roof framing, rafters, joists, trimmers and defined junctions to existing roofs, subject to the issued design and project scope.
Can you resolve an existing-roof junction on site?
Site verification and practical setting-out are important, but structural design responsibility and any required approvals must be clearly established before construction.
Do you undertake other structural carpentry?
Yes. Suitable West Sussex enquiries can include joists, floor structures, timber walls and other structural timber work shown in the issued information.
What should I send for a quotation?
Current architectural and structural drawings, engineer details, site photographs, access information, programme and timber specification.
