C&J Construction & Roofing LTD carries out structural roofing carpentry across West Yorkshire, from traditional cut roofs built on site to designed trussed rafter roofs craned into position on new builds and extensions. We also repair and replace failed rafters, purlins, wall plates and ceiling joists on existing properties.

The covering only performs as well as the structure underneath it. Sagging rooflines, bowed ridges and dipped valleys are structural problems, and no amount of new tile will fix them.

Our carpentry work covers:

  • Traditional cut roofs, set out and built on site with ridge, rafters, purlins, collars and struts
  • Trussed rafter roofs, set out, positioned, braced and strapped to design
  • New build and extension roof structures from foundation drawings
  • Dormer construction, flat roof and pitched
  • Rafter, purlin and wall plate replacement where rot or beetle has taken hold
  • Ridge and valley reinforcement on sagging roofs
  • Firring and decking for flat roofs in OSB3 or ply
  • Gable ladders, verge detail and eaves carpentry

All structural timber is treated, correctly graded and fixed with the specified straps, hangers and restraint. Building control notifications and inspections are handled where the work requires them.

Common questions

Questions about timber roofing, carpentry and truss roofs

If your question is not answered here, call 07927 976489 and ask.

What is the difference between a cut roof and a truss roof?

A cut roof is built piece by piece on site from individual timbers and leaves a usable loft space. A truss roof arrives as prefabricated frames, goes up faster and costs less, but the webs inside limit loft storage. We build both and advise on which suits the project.Can you repair sagging roof timbers? | Usually yes. Sagging is normally caused by undersized or rotten purlins, failed struts or removed supports. We can sister rafters, replace purlins and reinstate proper support without stripping the entire roof in many cases.Do you build extension roofs from scratch? | Yes. We build complete roof structures for single and two storey extensions, from wall plate up, working to your drawings and coordinating with building control inspections at each stage.

Customer feedback

What our customers say

5 out of 5 from 5 reviews left on Facebook by customers across West Yorkshire.

  • We recently had our roof replaced by Connor and his team, and I honestly could not recommend them highly enough. From the very beginning, Connor was friendly and professional. Communication was excellent throughout the whole job. Any questions were answered quickly, and we were always kept informed about what was happening. The work was completed much quicker than we expected without compromising on quality, and the finished roof looks fantastic. The team worked hard, were respectful of our property, and left everything clean and tidy when they finished. Thank you to Connor and everyone involved for doing such a great job.

  • The work done was excellent. Turned up on time, worked all day, left the job tidy every day and the final finish was more than we expected. First class workers.

  • Connor and his team arrived on time every day and worked tirelessly to get the job done. They were well mannered, they did everything I asked and answered all of my questions. My roof looks great and I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking about using them. Thank you C&J.
