The challenge
The most complex element was the trussed roof. The geometry, sequencing and coordination of the full roof installation required accurate setting out and strong site carpentry skills.
The package also combined structural carpentry, internal finishing and external cladding, requiring the team to move between different work types as the extension progressed.
Our approach
CJ prioritised the roof sequence and coordinated closely with Claywood so the structure could be completed accurately and released for following trades.
The same site team then progressed the doors, second-fix joinery and cedar cladding package, maintaining continuity across the full carpentry scope.
Outcome
CJ successfully delivered the combined install-only package, with the complex trussed roof standing out as the strongest element of the team's performance.
The project demonstrates CJ Joinery Contracts' ability to handle both structural carpentry and detailed finishing packages on commercial hotel schemes.
