Why Attic Trusses Matter

Attic trusses serve two major functions:

  1.  They support your roof and ensure it can bear snow, wind, and environmental stress.

  2. They reinforce your attic floor, especially if it’s used for storage or finished living space.
     

​When trusses weaken or fail, you may experience:

  • Sagging or bowed ceilings

  • Drywall cracks or nail pops

  • Roof dips or deformities

  • Reduced attic insulation performance

  • Long-term structural damage
