Loft conversion Chelmondiston Suffolk

Hi all haven’t posted for a while been busy and wanted to update the site with some more work that’s been going on like this loft conversion in Chelmondiston in Suffolk it was a whopper with a eight meter span and a an overall length of eighteen meters it was quite a challenge.

As we can see the existing roof has been half stripped of before the gable end wall looked seriously dodgy and also had to be taken down and replaced by 6×2 stud work.

The trusses as we can see are huge and the top hats needed to be nailed on before erecting as we can see there are also a lot of loose timbers for the infills, dormers and joisting.

We can now see the trusses erected with spaces for the velux on the back of the property and the gable wall rebuilt in stud work to take the gable ladder and to create the end wall.

Here we can see the roof all covered in the vekux are formed underneath ready for the roofers to fit the velux kits.
