Roof framing provides the structural backbone for additions, ensuring load-bearing support, proper integration with existing roofing, and long-lasting durability. Precision measurements and correct engineering prevent sagging, leaks, and future structural issues. At Salazar Roofing, we handle all framing needs for room additions and new construction projects.
