Structural Repair
Restoring Your Roof's Structural Integrity
When storms compromise rafters, trusses, or decking, surface repairs aren't enough. Our structural repair team assesses and restores the load-bearing components that keep your roof safe — with engineered solutions that meet or exceed building codes.
Why It Matters
STRUCTURE IS NON-NEGOTIABLE
A roof with damaged structural members is a safety hazard. Cracked rafters, split trusses, and saturated decking can lead to progressive failure — especially under the weight of the next storm's water or debris load. Structural repairs must be done right the first time.
- Rafter and truss assessment after impact or water damage
- Decking replacement for rotted or fractured sheathing
- Sister rafter installation for cracked members
- Load-bearing capacity verification
- Code-compliant engineered repair solutions
- Coordination with structural engineers when required
What Sets Us Apart
THE YOSEMITE DIFFERENCE
We partner with licensed structural engineers for complex damage — ensuring repair designs meet building code requirements and pass inspection.
Saturated decking is the most common structural issue we find — water from chronic leaks weakens OSB and plywood sheathing until it can no longer support roofing materials or foot traffic.
All structural repairs are documented with photos, measurements, and material specifications — critical for insurance claims, future inspections, and property sales.
When Structural Repair Is Needed
Structural repair is required when: a tree or large debris has impacted the roof, sagging or dipping is visible from inside or outside, roof decking feels soft or spongy when walked on, rafters or trusses show visible cracks or splits, water damage has been present for an extended period causing wood rot, or a building official has flagged structural concerns during inspection. If you notice any of these signs, do not delay — structural damage worsens under load.
Our Structural Repair Process
Assessment: Complete interior and exterior inspection of structural members, including attic access for rafter and truss evaluation. Documentation: Photo and measurement documentation of all compromised members. Engineering: For significant damage, we engage a licensed structural engineer to design the repair. Repair: Sistering, replacement, or reinforcement of damaged members using code-specified materials. Verification: Load testing and inspection to confirm restored structural capacity. Documentation: Complete repair records for insurance, building officials, and your files.
