Our Framing Process

Site Review & Planning

We start with a detailed walkthrough of the build site or existing structure. Then, we review architectural plans and building requirements.

Material Selection

We recommend the best framing lumber and hardware based on your project, climate exposure, and budget.

Precise Execution

Our crew ensures each wall, joist, beam, and opening is perfectly aligned. We double-check elevations, anchor points, and truss loads to meet structural engineering standards.

Final Inspection

Before the next phase begins—whether it’s electrical, plumbing, or finishing—we inspect all framing to confirm compliance and accuracy.
