Hi, I'm extending my house by adding a hip roof structure to a gable end structure. All the trusses are in place but those in the old section sit about 30mm higher than those in the new section. The problem I've got is how to place the metal facia at the same level from old to new. I can't shorten the tails of the trusses on the new bit because one wall has flush fitting facia and I cant lengthen the tails on the old bit because of the roof line of a carport sitting under the eaves. As far as I can work it out this leaves either or both increasing the depth of the roof battens on the new section or stepping down the eaves and facia from the old bit. Another issue I'm concerned about is what impact this will have on the valley flashings. Any advice would be appreciated. TIA V
