Roof Trusses
Our custom-designed timber roof trusses offer cost-efficient, time-saving solutions for domestic and commercial projects. Using advanced laser technology, we ensure precision in manufacturing, allowing for quick installation. These versatile trusses accommodate small to large-scale builds while maintaining structural integrity and compliance with industry standards.
Metal Web Joists
Metal web joists combine timber's lightness with steel's strength, enabling longer spans and efficient service integration. Ideal for luxury homes, they reduce deflection and simplify installation. Our Posi-Joist system ensures dimensional accuracy, supporting modern architectural demands while maintaining thermal and acoustic performance.
Timber Frame Systems
Our engineered timber frame systems provide sustainable, high-performance solutions for residential and commercial buildings. From design to delivery, we create tailored packages that meet specific build requirements. These systems offer excellent thermal efficiency, reduce construction time, and support eco-friendly building practices through renewable materials.
Glulam Beams
Glulam beams offer exceptional strength and aesthetic appeal for long-span architectural applications. Available in custom sizes, they suit both structural and exposed uses. Our beams combine traditional craftsmanship with modern engineering, providing durable solutions for projects requiring visual impact and load-bearing capacity.

Our comprehensive supply and fit service handles material delivery and expert on-site installation. Experienced teams ensure safe, efficient fitting of structural timber products, reducing project coordination challenges.
