The Encyclopedia of Rooftop Additions: A for Addition

Create a great view and new living space in your building's top floor. Adding a new storey or rooftop addition is the ideal way to improve a building's energy footprint sensibly and sustainably. A rooftop addition using timber frame construction can be added to almost any building.

Unlike with traditional methods of adding a new storey, we put a superstructure on the roof, as the name "rooftop addition" suggests. This type of construction method is lighter and more flexible than traditional building methods. RoofUz rooftop additions the perfect add-on for your building.

This type of construction does represent an alteration to the existing structure, and requires a building permit from the local authorities. But don't worry - we have already made the most time-consuming decisions for you.  You only have to worry about the most essential questions and the aesthetics. We do as much thinking and work as possible in advance to shorten the execution time on site. This saves stress, misunderstandings and valuable time during the construction process. We provide a prefabricated, precisely fitted unit, so construction is less dependent on weather. We have solutions for the concerns that give builders sleepless nights. And we have people on hand who can implement the solutions quickly. We prefer practice over theory and use that approach to create space quickly.

By using timber frame elements, we have more control over the timely start and finish of the construction project. After removing the existing roof structure, we install the new wall, ceiling and roof elements. This process is often much faster than traditional building methods. That means that the buildings occupants have to spend less time with scaffolding in their faces, and you'll have the new space as soon as possible.
