How much does roof framing cost?
We're having an extension built and the builder's quote lists the roof framing separately. Just want to sense-check what a fair price for the timber structure and labour looks like?

"Rough price would pend on the frame work your after if its skeleton frame just timber work only. Do it on a day rate each lad so two lads £250 each a day would be £500. Each day. But would probably have the lean to roof done in a day or two."
