Roof Framing and Rafter Repair in Nashville, TN by Nashville Carpentry across Middle Tennessee
Good shingles need good bones.
The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

Roof problems often start in the framing. Cracked rafters, a sagging ridge, missing collar ties or rotted decking can all show up as a wavy roof line or leaks. Fixing the structure first makes any roofing work last.

We repair and reinforce rafters, replace rotted decking and fascia, frame dormers and porch roofs, and tie new roof sections into old ones so water sheds the way it should.

Why homeowners choose it

Four things done right.

Fixed at the source

Structure repaired before shingles go on.

Reinforced, not patched

Rafters sistered and collar ties added where needed.

Valleys, eaves and transitions framed properly.

Careful with your home

Interiors protected during the work.
