ROOF LIFTING

Stabilize, Restore, and Rebuild With Confidence

When Your Structure Fails —We Help It Recover

Structural damage doesn’t always require demolition — but it always demands precision. Whether a forklift hit a column, the roof is sagging, or the foundation has shifted, LIFTEX provides engineered repair solutions that stabilize, restore, and extend the life of your building.
Our system is crane-free, fast, and proven: adapted from our decades of experience in roof lifting.

What Is Structural Repair?

Structural repair involves restoring the integrity of a building’s load-bearing systems —columns, beams, roof trusses, or foundations— by replacing, reinforcing, or realigning damaged components.

Common repairs include:

  • Replacing impact-damaged columns
  • Shoring sagging beams or glue-lam trusses
  • Correcting foundation settlement and roof deformation
  • Reinforcing aged or overstressed steel members
  • Removing and rebuilding failing structural sections


Every repair we execute is engineered, documented, and installed with the same rigor as our roof lifting projects.

How It Works

Assessment

We review photos, drawings, and jobsite conditions to define the scope.

Custom Repair Plan

We design a solution using proprietary jacking, shoring, and replacement systems.

Engineering Analysis

Our licensed engineers determine what failed and how to fix it — permanently.

Execution

Our crews install temporary supports, perform the lift if needed, and complete the repair using pre-fabricated or field-built components.

Why Structural Repairs Are Needed

From emergency response to preventative upgrades, LIFTEX gets buildings back on track quickly and safely. We respond to urgent and planned situations alike, including:

  • Forklifts or vehicles hitting load-bearing columns
  • Roof sagging due to foundation movement
  • Beams or joists stressed beyond capacity
  • Rusted, cracked, or delaminated structural joints
  • Environmental failures in older wood or glue-lam systems

Where We’ve Done It

  • Emergency Warehouse Column Replacements: Immediate response after forklift impacts
  • Roof Structure Stabilization: Sagging beams, glue-lam arches, and failing trusses corrected and reinforced
  • Foundation-Related Re-Leveling: Structural lifts to offset settlement and restore load paths
  • Temporary Shoring & Re-support: Engineered systems that enable safe replacement of foundations or supports

What to Expect

We don’t offer cookie-cutter repairs. Each fix is tailored to your building’s condition, performance goals, and timeline. Structural repair is often the hidden need behind a successful retrofit, and we’re ready for it.

A structural repair project typically includes:

  • Field assessment and scope documentation
  • Stamped engineering repair drawings
  • Custom shoring and lifting systems
  • Structural replacement or reinforcement
  • Site protection and safety coordination
  • Live facility execution with minimal disruption

Because we’re already trusted to raise entire roofs and rebuild structural systems, many clients ask us to inspect and resolve unrelated issues while we’re on site — damaged joints, aging columns, or roof irregularities that weren’t on the original scope.

Why Choose LIFTEX?

Many companies subcontract steelwork after a lift, leaving roofs “floating” and project quality uncertain. Not LIFTEX.

We handle the entire process in-house —from lifting to re-support— ensuring safety, efficiency, and seamless coordination. With our proprietary system   and experienced ironworkers, you get one team, one standard, and zero compromise.

Spinoso Real Estate Group

“LIFTEX stood out due to their innovative solutions and strong track record. Their ability to communicate effectively and their problem-solving attitude made them an ideal partner for the project.”

Focus Camera Team

“LIFTEX delivered exactly what we needed. The roof lifting project allowed us to expand our operations without interrupting our business.”

FAQs About Roof Lifting

How long does a typical roof lift take?

Most lifts are completed in 1–3 days per section, depending on the size of the roof and complexity of the project.

Absolutely. LIFTEX uses proprietary technology with a 100% success rate and strict adherence to OSHA and internal safety protocols.

In many cases, yes. Roof lifting is designed to minimize downtime and disruption to ongoing operations.

Buildings with extensive rooftop equipment, certain structural limitations, or zoning restrictions may require additional evaluation.

Yes. Roof lifting avoids the costs of land acquisition, new construction, and business relocation — often yielding faster ROI.

Clear Height: Distance from the floor to the lowest overhead obstruction (ideal for calculating usable vertical space).


Vanilla Shell: A basic building with four walls and a roof — ready for tenant-specific fit-out.


Columns/Beams: Vertical (columns) and horizontal (beams) structural steel elements that hold up the roof.


Floor Plan: A bird’s-eye view layout of the building, often with a structural grid.
Bay: The space between four support columns, typically measured as 20’x20’ to 60’x60’.


MEP: Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing systems in a building.


Fit-Out: Custom finishing of a space for tenant use — walls, flooring, equipment.


Joists: Horizontal steel components with an open web, forming part of the roof’s framework.
Deck: The sheathing layer above joists/beams and below roofing material (often corrugated metal).
