How it works for roof carpenters
The Roof carpenter trade covers the roof frame and the eaves. Its work comes with an inspection checklist, and the roof framing section of the trade inspection report is yours, so what you found in the roof space is written up the same way every time.
Roof framing repairs have their own safe work method statement, and on Elite the full take-off includes the roof carpentry: rafters or trusses, ceiling joists and tie-downs.
Many roof carpenters work with roofers. Add the Roofer trade with the extra-trades add-on, or the other way round, and the two share one set of clients, jobs, schedule and invoices.
