Detailed Inspections and Assessments

Bowstring truss roofs are an architectural staple of Geneva's industrial history. If they don't receive proper maintenance, these complex wooden structures degrade due to age and weather. We provide thorough inspections of your roofing system, assessing the age, condition, and stability of your trusses. We'll identify critical issues such as moisture intrusion, fungal decay, and masonry cracks, and provide a detailed report outlining the necessary repairs to ensure long-term safety.

Emergency Shoring Services for Bowstring Truss Roofs


When severe weather or neglect threatens your building's stability, immediate action is required. We provide emergency shoring to stabilize damaged or failing trusses, preventing roof collapse and securing your property while permanent repairs are planned.

Specialized Truss Design Reinforcement and Repair


Standard residential and commercial roofers focus on the exterior, replacing shingles and roof boards when necessary. Our specialty is interior structural work that supports your building. We reinforce damaged components based on load requirements, fix leaks, and repair flashing details at masonry piers to prevent future deterioration.

Historic Restoration and Preservation


We're passionate about these historic buildings and their role in early-20th-century architecture. Preserving them means preserving part of our local heritage. We use techniques that respect the original craftsmanship of pre-WWII buildings while integrating modern structural standards to extend the lifespan of your roof.

Customized Design Reinforcement


The work that goes into protecting your roof is as unique as the original design. We collaborate closely with structural engineers and contractors to discuss custom reinforcement plans that address your load-bearing needs, cost considerations, and accessibility constraints.
