Frequently asked questions
What should I prepare for a roof structure project in Schwyz?
Gather the plans of the building, photos of the existing roof and any engineer's or architect's reports. Describe the project clearly, whether it is a repair, an extension or a new structure. The carpenter will then check the load-bearing elements and propose suitable timber and assembly methods.
When does a timber project need structural assessment?
A new opening, added storey, altered roof or damaged load-bearing timber can change how loads are carried. Provide existing drawings and reports where available. Ask who will establish the structural design and any required checks before fabrication or changes to the existing frame.
What should I compare in timber frame carpenter quotes?
Compare timber specification, assembly, structural design and interfaces with the rest of the building. Check access equipment and temporary weather protection. Clarify whether roofing, insulation and interior finishes are included, so a structural frame is not compared with a complete finished extension.
How should I prepare for the timber frame carpenter visit or work?
Gather building plans and earlier timber or roof reports. Explain occupied areas and access for long or bulky components. Do not remove structural elements to expose them yourself; agree survey access and how the building remains protected during the work.
