Framing in Kinniburgh South, square and ready for drywall

Turning an unfinished basement or an open floor plan in Kinniburgh South into real rooms starts with the frame. In Kinniburgh South we build wood-frame basement development layouts and interior partition walls — squared, plumbed and spaced for the drywall going over them. In Kinniburgh South we frame interior, non-load-bearing walls only; a licensed structural engineer handles anything load-bearing. Kinniburgh South is one of Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, so framing calls here are almost all basement development layouts, since the main floors are freshly built to plan. The same crew that frames your Kinniburgh South walls can board, tape and finish them too, so there is no handoff between trades. We cover Kinniburgh South and all of Chestermere, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of framing in Kinniburgh South?

Wall length, layout and openings

Framing cost in Kinniburgh South 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 Kinniburgh South homes

Because Kinniburgh South is one of Calgary's newer communities, where fresh installation and first-year settling work are common, framing calls here are almost all basement development layouts, since the main floors are freshly built to plan.

Our Kinniburgh South 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 Kinniburgh South 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 Kinniburgh South for the stage that follows. New homes in Kinniburgh South tend to have long unbroken wall runs and high ceilings, which changes how a seam has to be feathered.

Basement development framing in Kinniburgh South

From open concrete to real rooms

A basement development layout is the most common framing job we do in Kinniburgh South — 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. Anything structural belongs with a licensed structural engineer -- and on a Kinniburgh South job we will tell you honestly when that is what your project needs. A lot of our Kinniburgh South work starts in the basement, where the ceiling has to stay openable for the plumbing above it.

Common framing situations in Kinniburgh South

In Kinniburgh South, 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. Assessed on site, priced up front, and finished properly — every time.

What framing usually involves in Kinniburgh South

Because the homes in Kinniburgh South are still new, most of what we find is first-season movement rather than damage — hairline cracks at corners and the odd nail pop as the framing dries out.

Basements in Kinniburgh South run cooler and damper than the rest of the house, and that affects both the board choice and how long each coat needs.

In Kinniburgh South we are often the second trade to look at a wall, so the first question is what the original finish actually was.
