Do you frame basement developments in Dawsons Landing?

Yes. The job we do most in Dawsons Landing is a wood-frame basement layout taken to drywall-ready. We also cover Chestermere Station, Westmere, Rainbow Falls and the Chestermere area.

Do you frame load-bearing walls?

No. Our Dawsons Landing framing covers interior, non-load-bearing walls and bulkheads, nothing beyond that. Structural work requires a licensed structural engineer -- we flag it as soon as we see it in a Dawsons Landing home.

Can the same crew do the drywall after framing in Dawsons Landing?

Yes. A single crew covers framing through finishing in Dawsons Landing, so nothing falls through a gap between trades.

Do you build bulkheads around ducting in Dawsons Landing?

Yes. Almost every Dawsons Landing basement frame includes bulkheads and soffits to box in ducting, plumbing and lights.

Will you work around my electrician and plumber in Dawsons Landing?

Yes. The framing on a Dawsons Landing job is sequenced so the other trades rough in cleanly ahead of insulation and drywall.

Framing in Dawsons Landing, square and ready for drywall

In a Dawsons Landing home, real rooms out of an unfinished basement or open floor plan begin at the framing. In Dawsons Landing we build wood-frame basement development layouts and interior partition walls — squared, plumbed and spaced for the drywall going over them. Our Dawsons Landing framing is interior and non-load-bearing only -- anything load-bearing goes to a licensed structural engineer. Dawsons Landing is a Calgary community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, so framing calls here range from clean basement layouts in the newer homes to alteration work in the older ones. Whoever frames it in Dawsons Landing also boards, tapes and finishes it -- nothing changes hands between trades. We cover Dawsons Landing and all of Chestermere, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of framing in Dawsons Landing?

Wall length, layout and openings

Framing cost in Dawsons Landing tracks the total wall length, the complexity of the layout, and the number of openings and bulkheads. We price off a site walk-through and give a fixed number before we start.

Typical framing work in Dawsons Landing homes

Because Dawsons Landing is a Calgary community with a mix of older homes and newer builds, framing calls here range from clean basement layouts in the newer homes to alteration work in the older ones. In Dawsons Landing basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

Our Dawsons Landing framing process, step by step

Layout before lumber

We chalk the plate lines from the plan or your walk-through direction and confirm every wall location in your Dawsons Landing space before anything is cut.

Square, plumb, spaced right

We frame the walls square and plumb with stud spacing matched to the board going over them — the frame stage is where a wavy wall gets built or avoided. See our basement drywall work in Dawsons Landing for the stage that follows.

Basement development framing in Dawsons Landing

From open concrete to real rooms

A basement development layout is the most common framing job we do in Dawsons Landing — bedrooms, a bathroom, a media room or a suite, framed to plan and ready for the trades that follow.

Interior and non-load-bearing only

We keep our framing to interior, non-load-bearing walls and bulkheads. Structural work goes to a licensed structural engineer, and we say so plainly when a Dawsons Landing project turns out to need one. In Dawsons Landing basements the deciding detail is usually access: what has to stay reachable once the ceiling is closed up.

Common framing situations in Dawsons Landing

In Dawsons Landing, dawsons Landing is one of Chestermere's newer build-outs, so most of our work here is fresh boarding and taping for new construction, along with basement drywall as first owners move in and finish their lower levels. Free on-site quote, one fixed price, and work that holds up after.

Why Dawsons Landing homeowners trust Emplastrum for framing

In Dawsons Landing

What to expect from framing in Dawsons Landing

In a newly built Dawsons Landing home the drywall has not yet been through a full winter, so we plan the framing around settling that is still happening rather than settling that has finished.

Builder deficiency work is common in Dawsons Landing — nail pops, corner cracks and seams that only appeared after possession.

A lot of the work in Dawsons Landing starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing and ducting above it.
