Truss Modifications

Damage sustained during installation can effect the trusses structural adequacy and compromise the integrity of the home.

The trusses in this instance were ordered incorrectly so the installer who appears not to be a registered contractor decided that they would cut them down to fit.

Every component of the trusses has been cut through and patched by screwing small blocks over the cut sections rendering them structurally inadequate.

Apart from the fact there is a serious structural defect, the home would not achieve Frame or Final Building Approval and would not be Insurable.

These defects were found on a home we inspected where our client had signed a contract to purchase. We are happy we can protect our clients from making a huge mistake in this situation.
