Problems We Solve
Timber Fixer Ltd provides solutions to repair and strengthen defective timber structures. These include deep or shallow notches in timber floors, roofs, and truss rafters. Timber structures are often cut or notched to support holes to route electrical cables or plumbing through them. Such modifications can weaken timber joists and a structural engineer must validate the adequacy of notched or cut timber joists.
Our structural engineers provide consultancy services and design solutions throughout the UK and the rest of the world. They certify that notched and weakened timber joists and structures are strengthened to comply with Building Regulations.
We provide pre-fabricated strengthening solutions, including off-the-shelf and custom-made structural steel plates, for weakened structural timber floor joists and beams, which comply with Building Regulations.
