Deco Truss Company Inc

Many Companies claim to have The Best Truss; however are they really being honest with you and working in your best interest.

Here are 5 simple questions you should ask, when you request a Truss Quote. If you don’t get these questions answered upfront, you may find yourself facing change orders and problems down the road.

1. Will all the pages of The Architecture/Engineering Plans you provided for the Bid, be shown on the Contract/Proposal? This insures you are getting a Hard Number for what the Architect and/or Engineer designed or intended.
2. Will Special Conditions, Loadings, Wind Loads and Building Code be shown on your contract/proposal?
3. Will you be provided with a Preliminary Plan prior to Sealed Plans and Engineering’s?
4. Will you be provided with Final Truss Plans and Truss Engineering’s for approval prior to fabrication?
5. Will you accept changes made to your Architect or Engineer’s Plans? Consequently this will cost you money to have your plans revised and re-submitted to the Building Department. If No, than never, ever accept a contract/proposal that states your truss are bid,  per the truss company’s layout; make sure bid is based on the Architect/Structural plans provided.

Deco Truss – Existing Information – Cheat Sheet

Question:

What is the #1 thing to consider when adding a New Pre-Fabricated Wood Truss Addition to Your Current House or Commercial Property?

Answer:

Verify!!! Existing Truss/Rafter Condition Prior to Ordering Trusses.  This needs to be done by the contractor or homeowner acting as contractor prior to ordering trusses.  Architect does not provide exact measurements, on His/Her plans, because they cannot cut into the existing until job site work starts.

Attached is The Deco Truss Existing Information Cheat Sheet.  We require this on all Additions which are matching existing roof.

Failure to verify existing conditions/measurements could result in New Trusses not working properly and /or new trusses being required.

“Measure Twice, Cut Once”

Deco Truss is very proud to represent The Southern Shutter Product Line.  Not only do we sell them, but as owners we
have personally used them in our houses.

Southern Shutter manufactures the finest quality interior shutters available today. The time tested construction methods of Mortise and Tenon are used to craft
Interior shutters that are as strong as they are beautiful.

The interior Movable Louver shutter, available in four louver widths, is perhaps the best constructed interior movable louver shutter made. Utilizing the
heaviest Mortise and Tenon construction in the industry enables Southern Shutter to create large panels that others can’t with dowel construction.

Also what is unique about Southern Shutter’s movable interior line is the UV prime coat process that they employ. The multi coat process gives the smoothest
finish possible allowing the end user to spray paint the shutter without having to sand it.

Every day I get this question from Customers.

Should I go With Real Wood / Hard Wood or Composite for My Deck or Dock?

This is really a personal preference, which one should compare. One of the most popular brands of composite is TREX www.trex.com and to be honest they have come out with some new beautiful designs that look just like Tropical Hardwoods and the best part is that there is no maintenance required after installed. On the other hand growing up around wood, I just love the feel of real wood. But the decision for even myself is getting harder with the new looks.

All I can say is hold a piece of each  in your hand and think about the maintenance you will be doing or not wnating to do. It’s a personal choice to consider and also an environmental one.

When comparing Truss Quotes you should always Compare Apples
to Apples.  This means insuring that you get the following:

• Make sure all the pages of The Architecture/Engineering
  Plans that you provided for the Bid, are shown on the Truss Contract/Proposal
  from the Truss Company giving you a price. This will insure you are getting a
  Hard Number for what the Architect and/or Engineer designed or intended.
• Make Sure Special Conditions, Loadings, Wind Loads and
  Building Code are shown on your Truss contract/proposal.
• Make sure you will be provided with a Preliminary Plans
  prior to Sealed Plans and Engineering’s.
  This will insure you do not pay for extra engineering fees when The
  Truss Engineering is done.  Minor changes
  always happen and clients should be given the opportunity prior to Final Plans
  and Engineering’s.
• Make sure you are provided with Final Truss Plans and
  Truss Engineering’s for your approval prior to the Truss Company commencing fabrication?
  Never allow the Truss Company to fabricate without your approval.
• Never accept changes made to your Architect or
  Engineer’s Plans, without your approval. Consequently this will cost you money
  to have your plans revised and re-submitted to the Building Department.

Many Truss Companies out there claim to have the Best Truss.  Why does Deco Truss really believe we are the Best Truss Company and have a Superior Truss Product? Simply because we care and we take our job seriously.  When bidding a roof truss job, we do not depend on the Architect and/or Engineer of Record to spell out every detail for us.

As the Delegated Engineer of The Trusses, we are responsible to know our trade and bid the Pre-Fabricated Wood Trusses, in a manner that they will ultimately work; whether it takes 2X6, 2X8 or 2X10 that is not the Architects or Engineers Responsibility that is our responsibility.
