Roof Renovation and Construction

Roof Renovation with the Fadoktor Approach

The roof structure is one of the most heavily stressed timber structures of any building.

In the case of roof renovation, our work begins with identifying wood protection and structural defects, and during execution we eliminate not only the symptoms but also their root causes.

In Fadoktor’s roof renovation and construction projects, wood protection considerations are given equal importance alongside structural and construction aspects—because a roof is expected to perform not just for a few years, but for decades.

Roof Renovation with the Fadoktor Approach

For us, roof renovation is never a standardized process—every building and roof structure is unique.

What we assess in every project:



Condition and load-bearing capacity of existing timber



Wood protection risks (fungi, insects, moisture)



Structural safety of joints and connections



Long-term maintainability

As a result:

Only elements that are truly necessary are dismantled
Components that are still structurally sound are preserved
Necessary elements are reinforced or replaced

New Roof Construction – Designed with Wood Protection in Mind

When constructing a new roof, we already consider in the design phase:



Proper selection of timber materials



Moisture performance and vapor behavior



Joint and connection detailing



Long-term effectiveness of protective treatments

As a result, the completed roof structure is:

More resistant to environmental impacts
Less prone to hidden damage
More durable and safer over the long term

The Importance of Wood Protection in Roof Renovation

A significant portion of roof structure damage could be prevented with a proper wood protection approach.

During construction, we:

Apply targeted wood protection treatments
Professionally treat or replace infected elements
Implement solutions that minimize the risk of future damage

This is especially important for residential buildings, public buildings, and historic structures.
